For
scrumptious summertime recipes and to learn new barbecuing tricks and techniques
from the Kraft Kitchens visit kraftcanada.com/summerfun. Summer cooking
couldn't get easier! 1. Marinate meat in the fridge overnight.
This allows for the flavour of the sauce to soak into the meat and helps reduce
your prep time the next day. For a new twist try using Kraft dressings as your
marinade. They add delicious flavour as well as tenderize some cuts of meat.
2.
When planning on chicken kabobs, soak wooden skewers in water for about an hour
before using to prevent them from burning. Then slide a piece of foil over the
handles for easier turning on the grill.
3. Prevent
fish from sticking to the grill by spraying the cold grill rack with cooking spray
or brush it lightly with vegetable oil. To avoid flare-ups, don't spray over the
hot coals.
4. The top 3 steak cuts are Flank Steak,
Rib Eye & Sirloin Steak. If you're watching your diet, Flank Steak is a leaner
choice. Rib Eye is a little pricier but perfect for special occasions or when
you want to treat your guests. Sirloin is a good steak for family cooking because
one steak may feed the whole family.
5. When barbecuing
vegetables, cut into large chunks and place them directly on the grill. Smaller
vegetable pieces will cook faster, however this requires a barbecue grill basket.
