We all love a good barbeque – but unless you regularly barbecue with your friends, this may not be possible. With this in mind, we’ve put together some sage advice on how to keep your barbecue looking fresh and, most importantly, smiling.

1. Check often for signs of damage to the grill region. Remove lid from the barbecue just before serving if you notice damage. Also, clean burners regularly and check gas cylinders for possible leaks.

2. Clean the barbecue thoroughly before first using it. Using the barbecue to cook your meat is considered the most important step so that you get a clean barbeque. Once you’ve done this it’s a sure that you’ll never look at a brand new grill again. Cleaning the grill is necessary to get rid of the strong smell. You may additional smell of the cooking meat itself, so it’s highly recommended that you clean your grill with an outdoor housewarming gift. Gift hampers make great barbeque gifts and so are well suited to your cooking needs.

3. Iron your grill. Using an outdoor iron can add a professional touch to your barbecue. It’s a sure that you’ll get a great sear in the food and it can look just like an expertly barbeque.

4. Never use your grill for meals that do not have a meat lower crust. With meat on the barbecue it will raise the temperature of the meat and that can lead to under cooked meat. For a more consistently well done barbecue, use low and slow cooking methods.

5. Preserve your charcoal. Most charcoal has now been pre-burned. Therefore, the charcoal is already cooked and the water is too old. When you’re simmering the charcoal, a cool place is much better. At the same time, you can also heat the coals up by surrounding them with hot foil, plastic wrap or even directly on the stove.

So, we know that you should clean your barbecue thoroughly before cooking with it. We also know that you should clean your barbecue after each use. What we’re trying to get at is that you should keep the barbeque clean between each use.

We strongly recommend that you invest in a barbecue brush. When you clean your grill using the barbecue brush, you will not have as much of a chance of cleaning as you would of using a gas grill. Also, the brush will ensure that the food that gets cooked will be much easier to clean up.

Thus, instead of saying clean up is hard with a gas grill, we say that it is much easier to clean up with a charcoal grill. What is great about charcoal grills is that you can keep trying new recipes and stay healthy at the same time. However, even if you clean your grill using the gas grill, you will still enjoy the convenience of having a charcoal grill to cook your food. And many folks have even found that cooking with charcoal fires, give them a whole new lease on life!

Chilis for the Cook

One thing that you will want to remember about chili is that it should not be cooked indiscriminately. In fact, you should be aware of the fact that not all chilies are created equal. For example, the Anaheim chilies are considered to be the hottest peppers out there. However, they are also known to be the least flavorful. The Be sensible with this though, as adding too much of this chili can lead to intestinal track damage. On the other hand, the Cajun jalapeno is one of the hottest peppers, considered to be within the 300,000-500,000 range. But caution is again necessary. This is because it is so hot. So try to have a balance when adding this chili to your cooking. However, it is considered to be a great addition to a vegetable stir-fry. Grate some breadcrumbs into your mixture and add a little cream cheese, and then your masterpiece is ready.

However, one of the biggest drawbacks to the BBQ chile is that it has a very short shelf-life. So forget about that Santa Fe chili. Instead, make your own. Take some oxidative years old chicken breast, break it up into six pieces, season it with salt, pepper, and garlic, and cook it over a low, indirect heat. You will have something akin to stews with a kick. This is delicious, and it can be used for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

The Life of a Stomach

These days, shells are increasingly becoming the exclusive domain of the super-rich. No longer is it sufficient to merely possess a false advertising of “earth friendly” chemicals that are sprayed on fields as deodorizers.
