DUAL ZONE BURNERS
Element’s patented dual zone burners, offer a whole new level of
control. Zone 1 is for indirect cooking, 15,000 BTU/HR. Zone 2
engages both burners and is used for direct cooking at 21,000 BTU/
HR.
Cooking with Zone 1
The outer burner can be turned on to cook the food through indirect
cooking. Place the food in the center of the grill. Turn the control knob
to “O”. Since the food is not being exposed to direct heat from the
burners it will cook more evenly and be less likely to burn on the
exposed side. This also means that it will cook more slowly. See page
20 for temperature recommendations.
This type of cooking is best for ribs, roasts, large cuts of meat, and
hot dogs.
Cooking with Zone 2 (Zone 2 engages both burners)
Direct Grilling is the most basic and simplest way to cook. Foods are
cooked, or grilled, directly over the heat. Place the food you wish to
grill on the grate, and turn the knob to ◉. See our chart for
recommended cooking times.
This type of cooking is best for burgers, pizza, poultry and seafood.
