Grilling and Barbecue Recipes

Nothing is more quintessentially American than back yard cooking. Whether it's real barbecue, done in a deep pit for hours, or a quick grilling; whether we call it barbecue, BBQ, cooking on the barbie, or the grill, we love outdoor cooking and we invent our own recipes to make each dish reflect our cooking style.

While bbq meat recipes are dominant, barbecued fish and grilled vegetable don't escape the hot embers. We use secret marinade and rub recipes that are hot or sweet, then makes salsas, chutneys and relishes to add to the flavor. Fire up the grill. Scroll down for all grilling and BBQ categories.

Grilling guide for steaks, chops, or burgers:

Rare meat is soft to the touch. There are no juices on the surface of the meat.

Medium cooked meat is firmer but springs back when touched and juices begin to appear on the surface.

Well-done meat is often covered with clear juices. It is very hard to the touch and does not spring back when pressure is applied. 

This is a guide to grilling 'instinct.'  To really become an expert at grilling, practice, practice, practice.  We have no complaints about the practice of grilling.   Good grilling begins with a well-maintained grill.  For advice and for more grilling tips, click here
