BBQ TIPS

Clean Your Barbecue

Don't let your barbecue get built up with grease and corrosion. Clean it every time you use it. Greasy food drippings can clog the burner's gas ports.  This may make the grill difficult to start and can cause an uneven flame. An easy way to clean your grill without using a bristle brush is to use aluminum foil. Crumple up a ball of aluminum foil and rub the grill, making sure to remove any excess grease buildup.

Less Stick, More Enjoyment

If you often forget to clean the barbecue, before firing it up, simply coat the grill with a non-stick spray. This will decrease the amount of grease buildup and help prevent food from sticking.

Keep it Juicy

When barbecuing, Use a set of tongs to turn your food on the grill. Do not pierce the food while cooking. Piercing can allow the juices to run out.

Rotate

Your grill probably has different hot spots.  So to encourage even cooking, rotate your food so each piece gets a chance to be on the hot spot or cold spot.

Flip early Flip often

You want your meat to be juicy. When you put your meat on the grill, the heat forces the liquid up through the meat (that's when you see a big pool of liquid on the steak). You don't want the juices to come out of the steak; you want it to stay in. Flip every four or five minutes before any liquid has a chance to escape out of the top.

Repeat often...
