8 Tips And Tricks Every BBQ Cook Should Know
1. Never spray...
image

… a barbecue with cooking oil while it’s switched on – it may cause a flare-up.

2. Add flavour...
image

…by using a large sprig of hard herbs, such as bay leaves, rosemary or thyme, to baste the food.

3. Oil metal skewers...
image

…before threading on meat or seafood to prevent sticking; soak bamboo skewers in water to prevent scorching.

4. Cook food...
image

…on the barbecue in manageable batches to keep the heat constant.

5. For tender juicy meat...
image

…and poultry, it’s important to rest the food before serving.

6. Don’t prick sausages...
image

…before cooking – this simply allows moisture to leak out. Start them off on medium-high heat, then reduce to low until cooked through.

7. Don’t cut meat...
image

…to test it’s done – use a meat thermometer or press the meat with tongs. For rare, it will feel soft to the touch, for medium, it will be firm and well done will be very firm.

8. Remove seafood...
image

…while it is still a shade underdone – its own residual heat will finish cooking it by the time it is served.
