With summer in full swing, it’s the perfect time to enjoy a backyard barbecue with family and friends. While most folks think of hamburgers and hotdogs when a cookout is mentioned, there are many other delicious foods to be enjoyed on the grill. To take advantage of outdoor cooking, it’s best to first think about the basics of grilling and barbecuing, and then plan your menu accordingly.

What is “grilling,” really? It is a quick cooking process that involves high direct heat to seal in juices while creating a flavorful crust on the outer surface of the food. Fish such as Mahi-Mahi or Swordfish steaks are wonderful on the grill. Also beef cuts like Porterhouse and Rib eye steaks are perfect for grilling. And don’t forget fresh fruit such as pineapple is absolutely delicious when sliced and grilled over a fire.

So what is “barbecuing”? A low heat method of indirect cooking. The heat surrounds the food being cooked, rather than being directly underneath it. This particular method involves a lot of wood smoke to cook and flavor the food. Beef brisket is very popular meat for barbecuing. Also, whole chickens or turkeys taste delicious when smoked with apple flavored wood chips.

The type of grill you use is a matter of personal preference. The two most common types of cooking fuel are charcoal or propane gas.
