Foods and meats are cooked on the grill with either direct or indirect heat. Once you master the techniques, you can grill almost any kind of meat, poultry, or fish, plus an amazing array of vegetables, appetizers, and baked items.
Whether it s a father s day poolside party or backyard barbecue, summertime is the perfect season for outdoor entertaining. Here are a few tips to remember:
* If you are still cooking with charcoals make sure you should light the coals at least half and hour before so that they have time to get hot enough.
* When preparing leftovers, reheat pre-cooked meats until they are at least 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
* Chicken should be well-done. If you don't want to take the usual time it takes, cook your chicken partially in the microwave and then finish it on the grill.
* It is always preferred to use low fire in grilling in order to avoid burnt meat.
* Plan your menu, but keep it simple.
* One of the best kept secrets of barbequing chicken is to lower the heat and wait until it's almost completely cooked before adding any sauces.
* If you are cooking steaks you want the grill to be super hot so that you sear the steak on both sides to lock in the juices, then keep flipping your steaks a couple of times until they are done.
