Cooking on the grill during summer is one anticipated activity we all wait for. Grilling correctly will help us enjoy our summer BBQs.
Here are five tips from Chef Tom Filippou, President's choice cooking school.
1. Get equipped with the right tools such as long handled steel brush to clean the grill, tongs for flipping, basting brush, spray water bottle to dampen hot flames.
2. To get perfect grilling marks generously oil the grill before cooking. Use a clean rag soaked with cooking oil or piece of beef.
3. To keep the meat juicy add salt right before putting the meat on the grill.
4. Use a meat thermometer to check if the meat is cooked without cutting.
5. Don't prick or pierce while grilling. Use tongs to flip this will maintain natural juices and tenderness.
