Questions and answers

Q. When cooking many individual foods, what can I do to insure that foods will cook evenly?

A. When cooking foods of various sizes and thicknesses, start larger or thicker pieces first and add quicker-cooking smaller pieces later. Press meat lightly to lie flat on grill. Slash the fat on edges of steaks and chops to prevent curling. Break the joints of split chickens so they will lie flat.

Q. I follow the cooking times suggested, but my foods don’t get done properly. Is there something wrong with my grill?

A. Probably not. Suggested cooking times should be used only as a general guide. Variables in food can change the cooking times required.

Q. How can I keep barbecued meats from developing an unattractive burned look and taste?

Q. My grilled meats sometimes come out drier than they should. What can I do to help prevent this?

A. Season meats after cooking rather than before—salt can draw out juices and dry out meat. Use tongs to turn and rearrange meats on the grill; forks will pierce the meat and release juices.

A. Sauces containing sugar will often burn if used during the entire cooking time. If your favorite sauce contains sugar, try adding it only during the last 15 to 20 minutes of cooking time for best results.

Q. Foods cooked on my grill are not browning as much as I would like. What could cause this?

A. A longer preheating and grill time may be necessary to achieve the desired results.
