About to start up my grill for the first time (Performer Deluxe, green)...I have the large Weber chimney. Is it best to put the lid back on the grill while the coals are heating up? If I do that, I assume I should have the bottom and top vents open?
Also, I should fill the chimney to a little less than full with coals? I'll be grilling some burgers, chicken breasts and corn on the cob (in aluminum foil).
Thank you!
