A word of advice: Charcoal grills often burn hotter than normal in the first few minutes after being lit. Wait a few minutes for the temperature to level out before you put your food on or adjust the grill’s dampers.
4. Incorporating Additional Elements If desired, add decorative items like ornaments, ribbons, or seasonal touches. A well-placed bow can serve as a focal point, drawing the eye and enhancing the overall charm of the wreath.
The metal slider attached to the bottom of your charcoal grill is called the intake damper, and it’s your main method for controlling the grill’s heat. This damper controls how much airflow enters through the bottom of the grill. An open intake damper means more oxygen and a hotter-burning fire. Close it completely and the fire will eventually go out.
