2 ALL ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE
Monolith BBQ Guru Edition grill – the complete outdoor kitchen
The Monolith BBQ Guru Edition unites the advantages
of a classic grill with those of a brick oven.Barbecue, low
temperature cooking, baking, smoking ... Whichever
way you prepare your dishes, the Monolith BBQ Guru
Edition grill will always enable you to achieve perfect
results. No matter whether you need very high temper-
atures to grill the perfect steak or smoke a large amount
of meat for hours on low temperatures – the Monolith
BBQ Guru Edition is your grill. The Monolith BBQ Guru
Edition used as a brick oven is perfectly suitable for
baking pizza or bread. The temperature range is
between 160°F and 750°F.
Due to its unique efficiency, the grill needs very little
energy to generate and maintain desired temperatures.
Using 5.5 lbs. – 6.5 lbs. of charcoal, the Monolith BBQ
Guru Edition can work in the low temperature range for
up to 24 hours. Since very little oxygen is required, air
movement is extremely low in the grill, preventing the
meat from drying out. The meat remains moist.
If you just want to quickly grill 2 steaks, this is easy. Due
to the chimney effect, the charcoal heats up extremely
quickly. With the high temperatures you can grill the
steaks, then close the openings afterwards to regulate
the air. When your cook is done, simply seal the open
and bottom vents and the charcoal embers will extin-
guish quickly. This means you can reuse left over char-
coal which increases its overall efficiency.
Our unique system of supplying wood chips gives the
meat that great smokey BBQ taste, without having to
raise the lid. The wood chips are placed on a rack and are
pushed through the opening directly into the fire area.
The Monolith BBQ Guru Edition is made of extremely
heat-resistant ceramics and high-grade stainless steel.
It has two side tables made of solid bamboo. The cart is
made of high grade materials and easily supports the
weight of the ceramic while giving you the freedom to
move your Monolith BBQ Guru Edition around
smoothly and safely.
Due to the efficient insulation of the grill and the
advanced regulation of the air supply, you can control
the temperature in the Monolith BBQ Guru Edition
unlike any other type of grill. The consumption of char-
coal is generally 25 – 50% less compared to other grills
on the market.
The target temperatures are reached very quickly
through the chimney effect and Guru Control, so you
can cook within 15 minutes of lighting, with far less fuel
burned during the preheating phase.
The outside temperature of the Monolith BBQ Guru
Edition is much lower than a steel grill – minimizing
the risk of burn injuries.
Due to the extremely temperature resistant ceramics
and the use of high-quality stainless steel, the Monolith
BBQ Guru Edition is very low-maintenance and can be
used even in winter.

Direct cooking is used primarily for searing foods
and for cooking foods that take less than 20 minutes
to cook. Food is placed directly above the heat sour-
ce on the stainless steel grate and should generally
be turned once halfway through the cooking time to
expose both sides of the food to the heat. This
method is usually best for relatively small pieces of
food that cook quickly, such as shrimp, steak, ham-
burgers, hot dogs, sausages, and vegetables.
Indirect cooking involves creating a barrier between
the coals or placing the food to the side of the heat
source. Since foods are cooked by reflected heat
inside the surfaces of the grill, foods slowly cook
evenly on all sides and does not need to be turned.
You can provide indirect heat to your food by placing
the deflector stone over the hot coals. It is ideal for
traditional barbecue meats that require long, slow
cooking at low heat, such as ribs, brisket, whole tur-
key, and pulled pork.
The Monolith BBQ Guru Edition is the complete outdoor kitchen. The versatile charcoal-fueled grill is
equally proficient at basic grilling tasks and complex, competition-level barbecue. The extensive range of
included accessories offer multiple fire configurations and a variety of cooking methods.

The cordierite ceramic pizza stone can withstand
high temperatures and recreates the conditions of a
brick oven on your grill. This method is best for gril-
ling gourmet-style pizza or baking dessert and bread.
To use this setup, lay the pizza stone on top of the
stainless steel grate and charcoal basket.
Two-zone cooking is the most versatile way to cook.
It combines both direct heat and indirect heat for
cooking a wide array of foods at the same time. To
create a two-zone fire, use the charcoal basket and
divider. Position coals on one side of the grill for
direct, high-heat cooking and searing and leave the
other side empty. Place a halved deflector stone on
the other side without coals for lower-temperature
cooking and as a safe zone for flare-ups.
Explore your culinary creativity and grill, barbecue, smoke, bake, sear, or roast—the options are limitless.
Explore these four common cooking methods and you’ll be amazed at the all-round talent, convenience, and
possibilities available by using just one grill.

Wood Chip Feeder System
The unique system of supplying wood chips, chunks,
or pellets allows you to insert smoke chips directly
over hot charcoal—without having to raise the lid.
Using a specially designed aperture, flavored wood
chips are placed onto the wood chip feeder tray. Push
the wood chip feeder into the grill and pull out the
handle to release wood chips directly into the fire
area. Because you don’t have to lift the lid, you main-
tain more consistent low-and-slow cooking tempera-
tures which are important for making great barbecue.
Dual-Disc Ventilation Cap
The dual disc ventilation cap allows for easy tempera-
ture and airflow control. By adjusting the ventilation
cap, you can regulate the required temperatures.
Opening the ventilation cap will increase airflow and
oxygen intake, making the charcoal hotter and the
temperature increase. By closing the ventilation cap,
you reverse the process.
Pizza Stone
The cordierite ceramic pizza stone is perfect for grill-
ing or baking authentic Italian crispy pizza, quiches,
breads, and desserts. The open-pored surface heats
efficiently and absorbs the moisture from the dough
to ensure a crispy base. For best results, use in combi-
nation with the deflector stone to prevent the base of
the pizza stone from getting too hot.
