Grill Instructions

We want you to enjoy the charcoal grill! Please follow these steps to keep it in great shape for the next guests.

Bring Your Own Charcoal & Supplies

The grill is yours to use, but please bring your own charcoal, lighter fluid, and fire starters — we don’t stock these on-site. Grilling utensils (spatula, tongs, grill brush) are provided in the kitchen.

Getting Started

Open the top and bottom vents fully
Pile charcoal in the center of the grill (pyramid shape) or use a chimney starter if provided
Light the charcoal — coals are ready when covered in light gray ash (about 15–20 minutes)
Spread the coals evenly, place the cooking grate, and grill your meal!

After Use

While the grate is still warm, use the grill brush to scrub it clean
Close the lid and shut both vents fully — this safely extinguishes the coals
Allow the grill to cool completely (at least 24 hours) before emptying ashes
Once fully cool, empty ashes into a metal container only — never into trash bags or the woods
If a cover is provided, please replace it once the grill is fully cool

Fire Safety

Charcoal stays hot for many hours after use. Never dispose of ashes in anything flammable, and never leave a lit grill unattended.

Thank you for helping us keep the grill clean for everyone!
