To grill like a master, prioritize keeping your grill clean to avoid unwanted flavors and health risks associated with leftover food bits, bacteria, and mold accumulation.
Adding oil to the grill before cooking not only prevents food from sticking but also aids in easier cleaning for future use, ensuring better-tasting and safer grilled dishes.
A hot grill is crucial as it not only prevents food from sticking and creating grill marks but also ensures thorough cooking to eliminate harmful bacteria like salmonella.
Use a paper towel to lightly grease your grill with a neutral oil, like coconut oil or avocado oil, to prevent food from sticking. To avoid fires, don't use too much oil.
You can also use a towel by rolling it up, tying one end, and soaking the open end in oil to spread it across the grill. Store it in a plastic container until the next time.
Maintain a sanitary tool storage area and separate raw meat tools from those used for other food items like fruits and veggies to ensure safety and prevent the spread of bacteria.
After grilling, let the meat rest for a few minutes. This will allow the juices to settle and carry over the cooking process, leaving the meat juicier.
