Grilling Tips

Meats

•Recommended Cuts:

•Beef - Sirloin (New York), Rump, Rib Eye (Scotch Fillet), Fillet.

•Lamb - Trim Lamb Leg Steaks, Fillet, Eye of Loin, Cutlets and Diced Lamb.

•Pork - Butterfly Loin Steaks, Spare Ribs, Leg Steaks, Fillets, Diced Pork.

•It is not recommended to cook items with thick bones such as T-bone steaks.

•Tougher cuts such as beef blade, topside steak, lamb forequarter or neck chops can be used. To tenderize these cuts, marinate them for a few hours or overnight in a marinade with wine or vinegar to help break down the connective tissue.

•If using a marinade recipe or pre-marinated meats from your meat retailer, drain excess marinade off and dab the meat with paper towels before placing on the grill. Some marinades contain high sugar levels which can scorch on the cooking plate.

•Do not salt meat before cooking. Salt will draw out the juices, toughening the meat.

•Do not pierce meat with a fork or cut meat while cooking. This will let the juices escape, resulting in a tougher, dry steak. Use tongs instead.

•Do not over cook meat. Some meats are better served pink and juicy.

•Parboiling sausages can alleviate the need to pierce sausages before cooking.

•When removing fish pieces from the grill, use a flat heat resistant plastic spatula to support the food.
