Barbeque and Grilling Blunders - Learn to Eliminate Outdoor Cooking Mistakes that Kill Your Cookout
Your average backyard cook is no expert in the barbeque or grilling field. He has no television shows on the Food Network. He has no grilling cookbooks out. Nor has any of those been part of his lifetime goal.
No, your average outdoor cooking enthusiast makes more mistakes with bbq grilling than you could ever imagine. The meat ends up dry and tough time after time, despite marinating for hours. Or the meat is burnt or cooked too long.
These mistakes are made time and time again because your average backyard cook usually does not know any different. He really does not just automatically know how to barbeque, so he makes the same mistakes over and over.
Here are some of the more common mistakes and do's and don'ts made in bbq grill cooking:
1) If you started with frozen meat, make sure the meat is thawed completely. Trying to cook the inside of a still-frozen piece of meat is next to impossible without burning the outside.
2) When using a charcoal grill, try to start the fire without charcoal lighter fluid. Lighter fluid taste will always get into your meat no matter how much you cook the coals down first. A chimney starter makes starting the fire a breeze. It also allows you to add charcoal along the way should the coals burn out along the way.
3) Never poke the bbq meat with a fork after cooking has begun. This is one of the most common mistakes and one of the most deadly for your barbeque. When poking with a fork, the juices will run out of the meat and right into the bottom of the barbeque pit or grill. Your meat will be dry and less tender. Use a long set of tongs to turn the meat.
4) Lower the heat. Except for steaks, that need a quick searing, cook slowly over low to medium heat. Lower heat is much more manageable and it will make the meat tender and juicy.
5) Quit lifting the lid to check the meat. Every time you do that it changes the temperature inside the bbq grill or pit. Air from you opening the lid acts like a sponge and dries the meat up. Opening the lid also increases your chances of flare-ups.
6) This is more of a food safety mistake. Do not put the cooked meat back on the same plate or platter that the raw meat was on without washing it first. Mixing the cooked with the raw just begs for someone to get sick.
7) After removing the meat from the barbeque grill or pit, let it rest for at about 5-10 minutes. Cutting into or slicing the meat immediately after pulling it from the bbq cooker will cause all the juices to flow out of the meat and onto the platter.
Of course, these are not all of the mistakes made by the amateur outdoor cook, but are some of the more common. If you will prevent doing these yourself, you will eliminate many of the things that cause barbeque failures.
Your guests and family will wonder how come your grilled or barbequed food is so much better then it used to be. And, who knows?...Maybe the Food Network will come looking for you.

Can I use gas range/stove for outdoor cooking (connect to Propane tank instead of gas pipe)?
I would like to cook on my deck to avoid smoke, but can't find a suitable outdoor gas-burner.
just find a stove rated for propane. like a camper or mobile home stove.
some stoves can be converted, it is necessary to change the orifice at each burner.
