Creating juicy, flavorful meat and seafood is easier than you think. Just follow our simple grilling techniques.
Plan a stress-free backyard barbecue using these helpful tips for getting the most out of your grill.
1. Get Organized
In the ten minutes it takes to heat your grill, prep your sides and grab everything you’ll need! Having tools like your grill brush, basting brush, tongs, digital thermometer, and spatula on hand will help you stay organized.
2. More Flavor, Less Effort
Tumble-marinated meats, barbecue sauces, rubs, and bottled marinades all add loads of flavor without much prep. Wegmans basting oil, salt, and pepper alone will keep food moist and enhance your flavor.
3. Low and Slow
Once your food gets those great char marks, move it to a lower-heat area to finish cooking. For coals, create a hot zone by bunching them in one area. After searing, use tongs to move the food several inches from the coals.
4. Turn Your Grill into a Smoker
Put a new spin on the basic grilling technique with a Charcoal Companion Smoker Bar. Fill it with specially flavored wood pellets, put it on the back of the grill, and heat on high for 10 min. until the pellets smoke. Then grill your recipe, lid closed—a vent forces the smoke out onto your food.
5. Give it a Rest
A digital thermometer will tell you whether your food has reached its target temperature, but “carry over” cooking continues several minutes after you’ve taken it off the grill. Let your food sit 5-10 min. before slicing or serving to reach its target temp, keep more juices in, and make it extra tender and juicy.
