To BBQ/ Grill

1. You will only need the base unit and one of the grills.
2. Get the charcoal going in the charcoal basket, remember, the charcoal is only ready to cook on once it has no more "black bits" visible.
3.  Place the grill on the brackets just inside the lip of the base and away you go!
4. Use the lid if the flare ups get out of hand, or you want to use it like a Weber "Kettle"

To Roast

1. You will need the base, one or both of the cooking chambers (dependent on how many people you want to feed), the water pan and the lid.
2. Get the charcoal going in the charcoal basket, remember, the charcoal is only ready to cook on once it has no more "black bits" visible.
3. Whilst you are waiting for the charcoal to burn down, you can prepare your cooking chamber.
4. Put water in the water pan, you can add beer, wine or some herbs of your choice. Some people say that the water pan has no effect on the end results, but I use it always, as the juices left over make a great gravy. If you don't want to use water, fill the pan with clean sand, as you still need to have a buffer between the food and the fire.
5. Place the food on the grill, just above the water pan and once the charcoal is ready, place the cooking chamber onto the base unit.
6. Place the lid onto the cooking chamber, sit back and enjoy the party. A medium size chicken should take about 3 hours, but it's always best to use a probe thermometer to be sure it's done.

To Smoke

1. Set up the unit exactly as if you are going to roast, the only difference is that you will be adding some wood chips, chunks or dust to create smoke at some stage of the process.
2. The amount and type of wood added will determine the amount and type of smoky flavour, as each variety of wood, imparts a different taste to the food.
3. A guide to which woods work best with what foods can be found here. Be a devil, and don’t be afraid to mix different wood types.
4. The smoking wood is usually added at the beginning of the cooking process, and if a very slight smoky taste is what you're after, just a handful of chips, should do the trick. Add more chips if you want a stronger flavour.
