Frequently Asked Questions - Bronx BARBECOOK

How do I assemble the Barbecook Bronx barbecue?

Assembly is straightforward. Attach the legs to the bowl, fix the ash catcher, and place the cooking grid. The lid handle may require screws. Refer to the diagram in the manual for step-by-step guidance.

Can I use the Bronx barbecue on a wooden deck?

Yes, but ensure it is placed on a stable, non-flammable surface. Use a grill mat to protect the deck from sparks and heat. Keep it away from railings and overhanging structures.

How do I control the temperature?

Use the bottom air vent to adjust airflow: open for higher heat, close for lower heat. The built-in thermometer shows the internal temperature. For indirect cooking, arrange coals on one side.

What type of charcoal should I use?

Use natural lump charcoal or high-quality briquettes. Avoid instant-light charcoal as it may leave chemical residues. Always allow charcoal to ash over before cooking.

How do I clean the barbecue?

After each use, brush the cooking grid with a wire brush. Empty the ash catcher once cooled. Periodically wash the grid with warm soapy water. Store covered to protect from weather.

Can I use the grill in windy conditions?

It is not recommended. Wind can cause uneven cooking and increase fire risk. If necessary, place the grill in a sheltered area but never use indoors.

Are replacement parts available?

Yes, common spare parts like the cooking grid, ash pan, lid handle, and vent components are available from Barbecook or authorized dealers. Check the manual for part numbers.

How do I know when the charcoal is ready?

Wait until the charcoal is covered with a light gray ash (about 15-20 minutes after lighting). The thermometer should read around 400-500°F (200-260°C) for direct grilling.

Can I use the grill during rain?

It is not advisable. Rain can cause temperature fluctuations and damage the grill. If you must, use under a covered area with proper ventilation, but never indoors.

What is the warranty period?

Barbecook typically offers a 2-year warranty on the Bronx model covering manufacturing defects. Keep your purchase receipt and contact customer support for claims.

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE PURCHASE OF A BARBECOOK®

! Important:

Your Barbecook® QuickStart® has an extremely simple lighting system. Starter fluid or firelighters should not be used.

Always follow the instructions for use. Please check before every use if the clips are closed. The barbecue can not be used when the clips are open.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

A) Lighting :

Remove the ground grid (5). Take three double sheets of newspaper and scrumple them up separately in the form of a torch. Insert these sheets of newspaper in the inner tube (6). Put the ground grid back in place and spread dry charcoal on top of the ground grid (do not use too much charcoal when lighting the barbecue).

Open the ventilation hole (7) and light the newspaper through the hole with a long match or lighter. The burning paper will light the charcoal. The smoke you see is produced by the humidity of the charcoal and the newspaper. After at least 15 minutes, your Barbecook® is ready for use. (At that moment, the glowing charcoal is covered with a fine layer of grey ashes.)

We advise to wait to install the cooking grill on the barbecue until it is ready for use.

B) Regulating the fire :

The fire intensity can be regulated in a simple way by opening or closing the ventilation hole (7).

C) Safety:

Fill the QuickStop® (8) with water. Release the upper part of the Barbecook®

by loosening the clips. The water in the QuickStop® makes the Barbecook® very stable. This watertank also functions as ashtray and extinguishes the burning charcoal.

D) Maintenance:

After having used the barbecue, remove the ground grid and brush the ashes toward the centre of the bowl. Afterwards, release the Barbecook® from the QuickStop® and pour out the water / ash mixture on an appropriate spot.

E) Moving the Barbecook®:

Inaddition to prevent direct contact with the hot bowl? the accessories brace can also be used as a handle to move the grill. Remove the cooking grid first, then pull the brace upright. Do not move the grill before it has cooled completely.

FIRST TIME USE

When using the Barbecook® for the first time, we strongly recommend to have it burn for 30 minutes without cooking meals. This initial period is necessary.

USEFUL HINTS AND

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES

1) The barbecook® can be used only out of doors.
2) Always install the barbecue on a solid base, away from inflammable and meltable objects.
3) It is recommended to empty out the QuickStop® each time the barbecue has been used.
4) The bowl of the Barbecook® has a capacity of approximately 8L. (Optima) - 10L. (Major & Arena). Do not use too much charcoal in the bowl (max. 50%).
5) Never use alcohol or petrol to light or stir up the fire.

6) Never move the barbecue before the fire is completely extinguished and the barbecue is cooled off completely.
7) Keep children and pets at a safe distance, protect yourselves against the fire.
8) For safety reasons, we advise to keep a bucket of water or sand in the neighbourhood of the burning barbecue. Models equipped with the QuickStop® system shall be filled with water before use.
9) Never roast meat in the flames. Wait to put the cooking grill in place until the charcoal is covered with a fine layer of ashes. For fatty food, we recommend to use a grill pan.
10) Always use dry and purified charcoal of the DIN 51749 type.
11) Precautionary measures for the enamelled barbecues :
- Do not use metal or sharp tools. They can scratch the enamel.
- Do not cool the bowl down with cold liquids. This may damage the enamel.
- Do not use metal scourers or abrasive cleaners of any kind. Use sponge or plastic scourer only.
- If the barbecue is banged against a hard surface the enamel may chip or break.

GUARANTEE

The Barbecook® comes with a limited two years warranty on production flaws, from the date of purchase and to the extent the use corresponds with the present instructions for use. The receipt mentioning the date of purchase counts as guarantee card.

This Barbecook® is not suited for professional use.

Wear, corrosion, deformation and discoloration (especially on stainless steel models) of the parts that are directly exposed to the fire is quite normal and will therefore in no event ever be considered as a production flaw: it is the logical result of their use. Hence, the ground grid can be strongly deformed after some time and it is normal to have this part replaced.

For the enamelled models: it is possible that sharp edges are not completely covered with enamel during the enamelling process. This can not be considered as a manufacturing - or construction fault and is not covered by the guarantee.

! Important : We wish to advise that the barbecue of the stainless steel models is made of stainless steel AISI 304/430, while the cooking grid and the accessories brace are made of chromed steel.

STORAGE:

To get many years of service out of your barbecue it is recommended to purchase a barbecook®-cover to protect your barbecue.

All chromed parts such as grids and handle should be stored inside in a dry area after every use.
