Grilling Tips & Techniques
Today's Hot Tips
1. Remove the gills from the underside of Portobello mushrooms. They add a bitter flavor and a funky color to the rest of the dish.
2. Gauge cooking time by the thickness of steaks and chops rather than by their weight.
3. Ask your butcher to butterfly a whole chicken. It'll cook much more quickly since increased surface area will be exposed to the flame.
