Your Entry into Precise Grilling: The Kettle Grill with Temperature Control
No more burnt grilled food and uncontrolled heat! The Extralink Home GL-624 mobile grill provides you with the tools you need for a true BBQ feeling. The core is comprehensive temperature control: with the lid, you enclose the heat, the easy-to-read thermometer always shows you the exact temperature in the cooking chamber, and you control the oxygen supply to the embers via the ventilation opening. This way, you can achieve not only perfect steaks but also pulled pork or gently cooked fish through indirect grilling.
Safety and Mobility Cleverly Combined
Important details were considered during the development of this grill. The handles on the lid and side are made of Bakelite. This special material conducts heat extremely poorly and ensures that you can safely lift the lid without gloves, even at full heat. The sturdy charcoal grill with lid and stainless steel legs gives the grill a firm stand, while the two large wheels make it a mobile companion for any garden party. Simply roll it to the desired location and start grilling!
Thoughtful Down to Cleaning
Nobody likes the tedious cleanup after grilling. The Extralink GL-624 makes it easy for you. The porcelain-enameled fire bowl is not only heat-resistant but also easy to clean, as residues hardly stick. The ash from the burnt charcoal collects in the underlying ash container, which you can simply remove and empty after cooling. This way, your garden grill is quickly ready for its next use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I best light the charcoal in this grill?
For best results, use a chimney starter. Fill the chimney with the desired amount of briquettes or charcoal, place 1-2 firelighters on the charcoal grate of the grill, light them, and place the filled chimney over them. After approximately 15-20 minutes, when the top coals are covered with a white layer of ash, carefully pour the glowing coals into the grill.
How do I effectively clean the grill grate and ash catcher?
After use, heat the grill on the highest setting with the lid closed for about 10-15 minutes ('burn-off'). This will carbonize food residues on the grate. Then, brush the still-hot grate clean with a high-quality grill brush (stainless steel bristles). Allow the grill to cool completely before removing the ash catcher and disposing of the cold ash in household waste.
Can I also grill indirectly with the Extralink GL-624?
Yes, this is a strength of this kettle grill design. Stack the glowing coals on only one side of the charcoal grate. Place the food on the opposite side of the cooking grate and close the lid. Position the lid vent over the food to direct the smoke over it. This way, you can gently cook larger pieces of meat without burning them.
How do I use the thermometer and ventilation for temperature control?
The thermometer shows the internal temperature. To increase the temperature, open the vents further to allow more oxygen to the embers. To lower the temperature, partially close the vents. For low temperatures (e.g., for smoking), the vents should be almost closed.
Is the grill weather-resistant and can it be left outside?
The porcelain-enameled fire bowl and powder coating offer good basic protection against corrosion. However, to maximize the lifespan of the grill and protect it from heavy rain, snow, and dirt, the use of a suitable, waterproof cover is strongly recommended.
What material are the handles made of and do they get hot?
The handles are made of Bakelite, a heat-resistant plastic that conducts heat very poorly. This ensures that the handles remain comfortably cool even at high grilling temperatures and can be safely handled without gloves.
