It's easy to grill succulent food if you just follow a few rules. Keep food safety in mind; grill meats to safe internal temperatures, discard leftover marinade (or boil it for 2 minutes before serving as a sauce), and never place cooked meats on the platter that held raw food. Take some time to learn all about your grill; the instruction manual will tell you how to control temperature, the best way to heat coals, and when the grill is ready.
Remember to never grill indoors, even in a garage; dangerous carbon monoxide gas can build up quickly. Place your grill in a safe place, away from kids and pets, and on a nonflammable solid surface. Be careful about discarding used coals (place them in a metal container when cool), and monitor the grill until the fire is completely out. Enjoy your grill this summer; use it to its fullest with these easy and delicious recipes.
