Almost everyone loves the big grills. Kitchen equipment and smoke, rich flavors of foods cooked in the hot fire to do more for good food and a great time. However, many people know very little about how he really is the best of their barbecue. Sure, we all have a fire and cook up a hot dog or hamburger medium, but barbecue is capable of much more! To really get the most from your grill, you must be easily reached with theOperation of your grill, as well as basic principles, the crickets help ensure best results.
The purpose of this article is not to teach everything there is to know about grilling. Instead, I chose five things that seem to be absent for many repertory grids. There are also misunderstandings and misinformation that is perpetuated in crickets that I want to help correct. With these tips you can start hoping to take cooking to a newLevel.
Get your grill hot enough
One reason is that I see grids errors do not know how to manage your grill heat. I saw people struggling to get food to cook so many need their right and all that she was hotter in the first place. Whether you are a fireplace with coal, coal, iron, or lighter fluid, go to your fuel usage, make sure you start with enough tiles. How much do you need? Everything depends on the size of your grill. However, peopleoften seem to underestimate the amount of coal that they need. Once the charcoal is glowing red and covered with ash, spread them on a charcoal grill.
After the barbecue on the charcoal should provide enough heat is very uncomfortable to hold your hand about four inches above the grill for more than a few seconds. If not hot enough, just add more briquettes and wait a while 'to start. It 's much easier to set your heat at the beginningIn addition to eating in front of the stage on the grill. Later they will fight with food to cook or simply do not develop in a nice caramelized surface you are. If using a gas grill, take many a little 'to heat up, especially those lava rocks or ceramic tiles to keep them warm. Start the rapid fire and let it warm for a while 'with the lid closed before throwing the food. It's nice to hear a sizzle when yourThe food is added. Otherwise, your grill was probably not hot enough.
Use good fuel
People with nice cars are willing to spend a little 'more for gasoline with higher octane. If you are serious about your food and have bought some beautiful cook meat and other ingredients, you should have the same opinion! Do not save money on gas is what the kitchen and the food is almost as important as good food is the firstIngredients! Most charcoal grills use charcoal briquettes in bags is huge base buy at any grocery store can. Sure, provide heat and light easily, but do you really think that cooking the food? Most of them are not from hardwoods so it is not real natural wood gives flavor and taste for food.
In addition, most of them use chemical binders, and petroleum products like kerosene. All these chemicals have a strange odor and who knows what they are doingYour health! Instead, use real, natural, charcoal unique hardwood. The pieces appear to be real pieces of wood were made charcoalized. They have no additives and are of genuine hardwoods like mesquite, hickory and oak. It is good, the intense heat. They tend to be more expensive than coal briquette cheap, but worth it! Also for the taste of smoke, consider smoking wood chips or blocks for your grill. O in a charcoal grill or gas grill, wood smokeAdd aromatic smoke to help the taste of your flesh. Many species such as mesquite, hickory, pecan and apple wood are available in most health food stores barbecue.
Use your grill cover
Many owners treat their coverage barbecue grill, as if it were just a cover to protect the grill between uses. Rather, the cover of one of the most important to the operation of your grill! For high temperature searing meat does not cover your grill must be enabled. But for cooking food thoroughlyGive your grill open caused several problems. The Grill to open, the only significant source of heat is having your food to direct radiant heat that rises from the heat. While this high, direct heat is good for browning the surface of the meat is not good for cooking in the center.
time, mid-life is about to happen, forgetting to be burned down! Closing the lid on the grill, keep the ambient heat and smoke, the vortexaround in your grill on your cooker, convection does not like in your. This allows an even larger roasting cuts of meat that cook. So for all but the most thin sections that you want only briefly sear, close the lid! Check your food and move it to a minimum so that all the ambient heat to cook food on the big juicy its best!
Indirect heat cooking
A similarApproach to the use of your grill lid to cook food is to use indirect heat. Direct heat is the high heat, the food is exposed to radiant heat source from direct heat slightly. But as I said, this heat can burn fast food. Foods that require time, rather, to cook, like chicken, turkey, roast pork or some, can take the time to cook. At that time, half baked, coal is out! Rather,other than direct heat, creating a place on your grill, no charcoal (or Burner) directly below it. Some people push the coal into two piles on either side of the grid, others just hit everything on one page. Their food is then placed in the area does not have heat directly below.
Instead of cooking the food direct radiant heat, ambient heat, which is based on your grill slowly roasts the food without the 'Surface high direct heat that could burn. Also, do not forget to close the lid! Would not it be a roasted chicken in the oven with the door open right? This method allows you to cook larger roasts for a long time without burning. Not only do not burn the skin, it gets even more juicy, tender and juicy roast dry and not to do it! I recommend this method for a larger roast, cook until the centerat least something. This includes whole chicken, ribs, roast pork, leg of lamb, and others.
Let Your Meat Rest (before and after)
This suggestion is actually two in one! Before cooking meat, especially beef, is better to take the meat from the refrigerator a while before you start cooking to go with. The goal is to get the meat to room temperature before you throw it around on the grid. Why? These kinds of reductions are usually served only slightlyhappened in the middle, as a rare steak medium-rare or medium done. When you take a cold steak on the grill, the center will have much time to warm up. In the meantime, you can burn the surface. A good thick steak takes only minutes per side for grill marks with a beautiful brunette get. But you do not want to be the center of your meat is still cold! Making sure that the meat is first at room temperature, you can quickly hit the desired temperature (and degree of cooking), sothe inside and outside of your steak done to perfection at the same time. This brings us to the second part of this tip.
After the meat is cooked to your liking, do not just fall on a plate and serve! Most of the pieces of meat will be eligible for a break, sitting on a serving platter, covered with foil in a warm place, after grilled. The larger the piece of meat, the longer the rest he needs. The reason for this is that when you take meat grilled, the surface ofHot in the middle with a little 'short of refreshing. For this reason, the moisture moves into the meat surface. Serve immediately leads to an uneven piece of meat with the texture and temperature differ from the center of the surface.
After resting, the balance of moisture and temperature, so that a single piece of juicy meat, ready to serve, and enjoy having. The interior will continue to cook while resting a bit ', because the balance of heat throughout the meat. Whilesmall steaks only 5 / 10 minute break, a large roast, like a lamb, may qualify for a half hour or more!
I hope these suggestions help, you will improve your cooking grate. Try the next time you turn on the grill! Have fun!
