GR38WHT_ENG_IB_22-5-02 22/5/02 13:29 Page 8 Grilling Hints and Tips • • • • • • • • • Use tender cuts of meat for grilling. Marinate tougher cuts of meat to tenderize them before grilling. To avoid drying out meat and fish, do not pierce with a utensil. Adjust heat setting gradually and only as necessary. Cooking foods at too high a temperature can cause them to dry out. Better cooking results will be achieved with boneless cuts of meat, chicken and fish.
