Fire Management Made Simple Controlling Heat on a Flamery Grill
The secret to perfect asado cooking is not just the cut of meat but how you manage the fire. With a Flamery Asado Grill, you are in control of flames, embers and heat zones. Mastering these skills means every meal, from slow cooked ribs to seared steak, comes out just right.
🔥 1. Building the Fire
Start with quality hardwood such as oak or beech. Arrange logs in a pyramid and let the flames burn until glowing embers form. This creates the foundation for cooking with depth of flavour.
🌡️ 2. Creating Heat Zones
Divide your grill into different cooking areas.
Direct heat for quick searing of steaks and skewers.
Indirect heat for slow roasting lamb shoulders or pork belly.
Resting zone to keep food warm without overcooking.
🍖 3. Managing Embers
As logs burn down, rake the embers beneath the cooking surface using the tools included in the Flamery range. Spread them evenly for steady heat or pile them up for higher intensity.
⏱️ 4. Timing Your Cook
Fire management is about patience.
Steaks and burgers: cook over direct flame for minutes.
Short ribs or lamb: allow hours over gentle embers.
Chicken: begin with indirect heat then crisp over flame at the end.
Mastering fire management is the key to unlocking authentic asado flavour. With a Flamery grill, you can control flames, embers and zones with ease, creating dishes that celebrate the tradition of open fire cooking.
