    Let me save you a few characters in the future friend: In both Firefox and Chrome (probably Safari too) there is a page number at the top of the page when you open the PDF. Here you can manually type in a number. Open up the PDF and enter "65" and it'll take you directly to the page you enter.

      Well, they do both use PDF.js [0]. [0] https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/ https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/

        Might be, although the UI is certainly different, at least for me on Windows. The page numbers are in the top-left on Firefox but top-center on Chrome.

        Chrome uses PDFium [1], not PDF.js. [1] https://github.com/chromium/pdfium https://github.com/chromium/pdfium

        Which is significantly snappier than pdf.js on big and moderately-sized PDFs.

        Using that knowledge we can improve on the instructions upthread. Just open this link: https://weber.mizecx.com/knowledge/s3/retrieve?path=knowledge/WEBER_LG/54372/54372.pdf#page=65 https://weber.mizecx.com/knowledge/s3/retrieve?path=knowledg... which is the original link, with "#page=65" appended. At least on Firefox, it will lead you straight to the page in question.

    Strange, I copied this in my browser and it opened google rather than the pdf.

  > 2 teaspoons Szechwan peppercorns This sounds like made up recipe without ever trying too cook it, as some other commenter mentioned.

This manual saved a friend's passover celebration once when a number of electric ovens went out cooking lamb and I suggested the grill.

Weber is a long-term premium brand. Hence plenty of skin in the game. I've had similar experience with manuals (or web sites) for cooking/kitchen products from similar brands.

  This reminds me of When my great grandmother became unable to cook and decided to pass her recipes along, it turned out that half of her “traditional southern food” classics had been from some old southern living cookbooks or the back of a Betty Crocker box somewhere. She made a cookbook of her recipes we all enjoyed for years and years and she included some of the original cutouts and index cards from probably the 50-60s or so. There’s also a lot of steps that you’d expect from a grandmother “cook until done” and “add some spices” to some of them.
