Tips for Firing Up the Grill – The Foundation of Great BBQ
Once you’ve used the Mincer to grind your own meat for burgers, sausages and more, the next step is getting the grill heated to the optimum temperature. With the right technique, you’ll bring out the best flavor and texture in your BBQ.
Wait for the right heat
Avoid placing meat on the grill too early. Let the coals turn gray and glowing – this ensures even heat and enhances the flavor of freshly ground meat.
Create different heat zones
When grilling freshly ground meat, control is key. Sear over high heat, then finish cooking on a cooler part of the grill for best results.
Use the lid
When grilling homemade burgers or sausages, close the lid to help retain juiciness and ensure even cooking throughout.
Let the meat rest
Freshly ground meat is extra juicy. Let it rest for a few minutes after grilling so the juices redistribute and the flavors can fully develop.
