COOKING GRILLING TIP

BEC’s best tip of the week for conquering the GRILL when it comes to meats and vegetables is to make sure, “The Grill Is HOT!” Once the food is tossed on the grill, turn down the temp, but to ensure you get that great ‘sear’ on the beef or chicken to even the vegetables… Always have a HOT Grill to get started.
