Fast Food, Fat YOU, Grilling Tips


Here are a couple of things that YOU might not have known that will make your grilling experience alot more pleasing. Remember, "opyn mindz", that's how YOU learn stuff!

1. Prevent burger bulge by pressing your thumb into the center of patties while they're still raw. They'll fill out again as the meat cooks.

2. Hands off! While constantly flipping the burgers might make you feel like you're really playing with fire, it doesn't do much good for your meat's moisture. For killer grill marks and a juicy patty, let the meat sit on the hot grill for at least a few minutes, and then flip just once.

3. Meat should be blotted dry with paper towels before it meets the heat. Otherwise it's boiling, steaming and braising -- not grilling.
