grilling techniques

Grilling involves cooking food over direct heat, typically on a grill or barbecue. To achieve even cooking and flavor, control the heat level—hot for searing steaks, medium for chicken, and lower for delicate items. Use different methods like direct heat for quick cooking and indirect heat for larger cuts or slow roasting. Properly preheat the grill, keep the lid closed to maintain temperature, and turn food to cook evenly. Using clean grates and oil helps prevent sticking. Rest grilled meat briefly before serving for juices to settle, ensuring moist, flavorful results.
