Seasoning & Prep

A great cook starts way before the fire has touched the meat. This is the process of consideration and taste enhancement. Try various rubs, marinades, brines and find your flavor. Before cooking remove the extra fat, allow the meat to sit at room temperature [for more even cooking] and pat it dry to promote a crusty lip-smacker. Never underestimate the strength of a good quality ingredients, because it boosts the taste of your culinary masterpiece.

Rest is Best

The ultimate, non-alternative move towards juicy perfection is allowing your cooked meat to rest. When meat is being cooked, the juices get trapped in the middle. It only takes a few seconds to slice it bsaefore all those juices spill out of it leaving you with a bland meal, so be patient and give the masterpiece to distribute the juices. Rest the steaks for 5 to 10 minutes and a little longer for larger roasts, tented loosely with foil. Proper redistribution of the juices gives the dish a tender flavorful bite every single time. 

Mastering the art of BBQ is a life-long learning process, an activity of trial and error and tons of great taste!
