Tips

• Preheat your grill on high for at least 5 minutes before grilling. This will burn off some of the burnt-on foods from the previous cookout. That’s the Griller’s High Five!
• When grilling with charcoal, make sure your coals are good ’n grey before putting the food on.
• Use a different plate to serve your meat than when you started.
