Cooking Charts
Proteins
- Choose your desired doneness from the guide.
- Adjust for thickness. The top plate should just touch the food and not press too firmly on the meat. You can unhinge the top plate and use the height lever to adjust.
- General cooking time:
- Proteins can be cooked on either the Probe setting or the recommended preset in the corresponding charts.
- When using the probe, set it 5°F (2°C) lower than your target doneness. After cooking, remove the meat from the grill and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before serving. The internal temperature will continue to rise while the meat is resting.
- Beef, pork, and lamb will take 3–8 minutes to cook depending on the doneness you choose.
- Chicken should be cooked to 165°F (74°C) and will take 4–9 minutes depending on the size.
- Fish and seafood should be cooked to at least 140°F (60°C) and will take 1–6 minutes depending on the size.
