An Important Note About Heat Settings

Preparing to Roast
Roasting uses the indirect cooking method. Therefore, the food should be placed on the left or right side of your grill with the Burner lit on the opposite side.

Food preparation
Trim meat of excess fat. Truss meat and poultry with cooking string to retain shape if desired. Bacon strips can be used to cover the outside surface of lean meat and poultry to help prevent it from drying out. Another method for keeping food moist during roasting is to put water in a cooking pan, then cover with foil. The foil should be removed for the first or the last part of the cooking time to ensure proper browning.
Tips for roasting
Except when roasting with water in a roasting pan, the juices that collect in the pan can be used as the base for a tasty sauce or gravy. Place a cooking pan directly over the heat, add extra butter if needed, then add several spoonfuls of flour to thicken sauce. Finally, add sufficient chicken or beef stock to obtain the desired consistency.
Once the meat is cooked, remove it from your grill and cover with a piece of foil. Allow itto stand for
