Off-set cooking techniques consist of burner turned-on on one side of the grill and the meat on the other side of the grill
(go to www.charbroil.com for infrared cooking techniques).
Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensor or wire during or just after
cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
