To adjust the temperature, simply turn the dial to your desired setting. The Z Grill system gradually increases heat production to reach this setting. Once the target temperature is reached, the grill sustains this heat level for consistent cooking. Keep in mind, the exterior temperature can affect the grill’s cooking time, so minor adjustments may be necessary.
Regularly cleaning your grill and ensuring good ventilation will aid in maintaining optimal conditions. Remember, mastering temperature control is the key to succulent, mouth-watering meals on your Z Grill.
