OOKING ZONE KIT PLUS – MUCH MORE THAN A SIDE COOKING PLATE, 3 APPLICATION AREAS

The completely newly developed COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS is, as the name suggests, more than a conventional side cooking plate as it opens up a far wider temperature range. While standard side cooking plates are usually designed for medium and high temperatures, the COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS can also be used to cook dishes at low heat (pasta sauces, soups, stews, etc.).
This is made possible by a completely new burner design and the option of using the side cooking plate at 3 different heights.
The concave shape of the solid cast iron surface also allows the COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS to be combined ideally with the OUTDOORCHEF BBQ Wok, which can be used directly on the surface (without the wok adapter ring).
This set consists of the reinforced side table, a support to keep the barbecue stable and the COOKING ZONE PLUS.

| High heat
In combination with the control dial, various application areas can be covered in the high temperature range
• Searing meat, fish and vegetables
---|---
| Medium heat
In combination with the control dial, various application areas can be covered in the medium temperature range
• Searing/steaming meat, fish and vegetables
• Searing starchy vegetables, e.g. fried potatoes, rösti, etc.
| Low heat

in the low temperature range
• Reducing sauces, soups and stews, boiling of rice-based dishes

PROTECTIVE COVERS FOR THE CAST IRON COOKING SURFACE

TIPS AND TRICKS COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS
USING THE OUTDOORCHEF BARBECUE WOK
The concave shape of the solid cast iron surface allows it to be combined ideally with the Barbecue Wok. The BARBECUE WOK can be used directly on the cast iron surface (without the wok adapter ring).
RECOMMENDED PANS AND POTS
We recommend you use only very heat-resistant pans and pots without any coating (e.g. Teflon). Ideally, choose pans and pots made from cast iron, wrought iron or steel. In general, all standard pans and pots can be used provided these are suitable for use with gas cookers.
RECOMMENDED PAN AND POT SIZES
We recommend the following sizes of pans and pots: 24 cm / 28 cm / 32 cm.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF THE COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS

Regular maintenance of your COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS will ensure it functions correctly.

• At least twice a year, check all parts that carry gas; also check them after extended periods of storage. Spiders and other insects can cause blockages that must be cleared before use.
• If the barbecue is regularly pushed across uneven ground, check from time to time whether all screws are still tight.
• To prevent damage due to corrosion, oil all metal parts of the COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS (in particular, the cast iron cooking surface) before long storage periods.
• Following long storage periods, and at least once a year during the barbecue season, you should check the gas hose for cracks, kinks and other damage. A damaged gas hose must be replaced immediately, as described in the SAFETY NOTES section.
• To allow you to enjoy using your barbecue and the COOKING ZONE KIT PLUS for as long as possible, protect your barbecue from the effects of the weather using a suitable OUTDOORCHEF cover once it has cooled down completely. Remove the cover after any rain in order to prevent condensation build-up. Covers can be purchased from your barbecue retailer.
