Questions and Answers

Q. I followed the cooking times suggested in the
grilling guide but my foods were not 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
and location of the grill can change cooking times
required.
Q. How can I keep barbecued meats from
developing an unattractive burned look
and taste?
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. 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 the meat lightly to lie flat on the grill. Slash
the fat on the edges of steaks and chops to prevent
curling. Break the joints of split chickens so they
will lie flat.
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.
