Install the FlavrQ Grid in Seconds — No Tools Needed!

Before you begin... Make sure your gas grill is turned off and completely cool!

Important: Never install the FlavrQ Grid when any part of the grill is hot. Never touch the FlavrQ Grid or any part of your gas grill when hot.

  1. Remove the grill’s cooking grate(s) in the area where you plan to cook with the FlavrQ grilling system. If your grill has ceramic briquettes or lava rocks, remove them. (Never use ceramic briquettes or lava rocks with the FlavrQ system.)


  2. Set the FlavrQ Grid directly on your grill’s radiant bars, with the grid’s ridges running in the same direction as the radiant bars.

    If you have a large gas grill, you may want to install more than one FlavrQ Grid for more cooking space. Each grid measures 12” x 14”. Before purchasing multiple grids, please make sure they will fit…


  3. Reinsert the cooking grate(s).

Add FlavrQ ChipCharwood for Genuine Wood Charcoal Flavor!

Never use ordinary lump charcoal or briquettes with the FlavrQ Grid — use only genuine FlavrQ ChipCharwood.

  1. Spoon or ladle FlavrQ ChipCharwood through the grates, onto the Grid. Spread it out into the approximate size/shape of the food to be cooked, about 1/4” - 3/4“ deep. More depth = higher heat.

  1. Light your grill as you normally do, turning the gas up to the high setting. The chips should start to glow in 1 - 3 minutes (time may vary) and you should feel an increase in the heat. Once the ChipCharwood has ignited, you can reduce the gas by 25 - 50% (varies with different grills and chip depth).



  2. Place your food on the grate(s) and cook!

To extend grilling time, spoon more ChipCharwood through the grates, onto the grid. Use tongs or a metal spatula to nudge any chips through the grate that do not fall through on their own.


IMPORTANT: Always keep your grill clean and free of residual fat and food particle build-up, which brings unwanted flavors to grilled foods and can create fires.
