Summer is the season where everyone seems to be barbecuing and grilling food. Here are a few tips and tricks to make your next BBQ a hit!
1. A secret to tender, moist, and tasty meat and fish is the cut you choose. The best cut for grilling steaks is a full one inch thick. Fish fillets should be cut from 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick - anything thinner will dry out too quickly. Pork chops should also be at least 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick.
2. When using charcoal, douse the coals with the least amount of starter fluid as possible to light the fire. If starter fluid is unavailable, salad oil is a great substitution!
3. Whenever barbecuing, use tongs to turn the meat. Using a fork punches holes in the meat and allows the natural juices to escape, causing the meat to lose flavor and become chewy.
