How to use your masonry BBQ

Unlock the full potential of your Masonry BBQ with these expert tips and techniques - mastering the art of masonry BBQ cooking is easier than you think. Our full range is available now. 

Seasoning Your BBQ: Initially, your new Masonry BBQ may retain some moisture from the manufacturing process. Don't fret if you notice a slight change in color after the first few uses. Lighting small fires gradually helps dry out any residual moisture, preventing the formation of micro-cracks. Repeat this process each season to maintain optimal performance.

Fuel Selection: Stick to charcoal as your primary fuel source unless otherwise specified. Using wood can lead to chimney discoloration and blockage over time, affecting airflow and aesthetics. Opt for briquettes or lump wood charcoal for cleaner burning. Nearly all of our Masonry BBQs come equipped with a charcoal grate and removable ash tray for easy cleaning.

Lighting Techniques: Ensure proper airflow for lighting charcoal by using an electric charcoal lighter or chimney charcoal starter if needed. Avoid using flammable liquids, as they can impart a chemical taste to your food and alter its natural flavor profile.
