Steps for perfect doneness and flavour on the grill
1. Preheat the barbecue Turn your barbecue on about 15 minutes before cooking to rid the grill of any residue and burn any grease build-up.
2. Clean and oil the grillClean the BBQ grill before each use. An eco-friendly, aromatic trick: use half an onion! Cut the onion in half and slide it on the grill using thongs. You can also use a metal-free scrubbing brush. Once your grill is clean, pass a well-oiled paper towel over it.
3. Consider the cooking type: direct or indirect It’s important for you to know your barbecue’s cooking zones. Keep in mind that direct heat is used to mark and grill food quickly, with direct contact over the flames. Steaks, for example are perfect for this very intense heat. Once the meat has been browned, you can continue cooking over indirect heat. Indirect heat is used for slow cooking, on a part of the grill away from the flames, with the barbecue lid down. A whole chicken, sausages, or brisket (Texan-style smoked beef brisket) are perfect for this slower cooking style.
4. Grill it, don’t burn it! To prevent your food from burning, remove the larger pieces of fat around your piece of meat. For marinated meat, take the time to drain them before placing them on the grill. What can you do with your leftover marinade? If you want to use it as your gravy, you absolutely must boil it at least 10 minutes. You can also double up your marinade recipe, setting some aside that won’t come into contact with the meat to use as your gravy.
5. Turn over once For tender, flavourful meat that is grilled to perfection, avoid turning the piece of meat or skewers several times. Let them get those gorgeous grill marks and a nice caramelization before flipping to the other side.
6. Let it sit Remove the meat from the grill about five degrees from achieving the desired doneness, and let it sit on aluminum foil for 5 to 10 minutes. This technique allows the cooking juices to spread and ensures your meat stays juicy. For a rare or medium doneness, this will prevent lots of blood in the plate when cutting.
