To . Sat. Til . By Gail Perrin Boston Globe Ever since the Caveman discovered How to make fire and found that meat tasted better warm than Faw Man has been into grilling food. Now the 1981 Barbecue season has begun. Outdoor Cooks have a variety of grills at their disposal simplest bucket barbecues and Hibachi to elaborate covered kettles and cast Iron grills Complete with rotisseries. There Are Gas and electric grills and even Oriental inspired earthenware pots with a Grill and cover. Whichever you prefer Here Are some general tips to keep in mind d before setting up the Grill Check the direction of the wind. Be sure the Grill is some place where smoke won t bother you or your guests. D no matter what kind of Grill you use remember it s important to have a Good draft for the fire especially when getting it started. D try spreading a shallow layer of Sand or gravel in the Bottom of the Grill before putting in the briquet to allow a better draft and let the fire breathe. The Sand or gravel also catches drip Ping fat reducing smoking and flare ups. D for easier cleaning line the Grill with heavy aluminium foil before build ing the fire. But do not line Gas barbecues d when using briquet the Hardwood charcoal Type is preferable because it gives off less smoke. D pile briquet in a Pyramid in the Centre of the Grill base. Use Only the number you need depending on the size of the Grill and food to be cooked. D usually 20 to 25 briquet Are enough to make a Good fire for grilling a few steaks chops or burgers for two to four people. For a Small Hibachi use 12 to 15 briquet for a larger Grill use 30 to 40 briquet. O when cooking with a rotisserie pile briquet in a deep layer covering the Back half of the unit. During Cook ing you will need to add briquet to keep heat constant. Q Start the fire 30 to 60 minutes before beginning to Barbecue. It s important to allow plenty of time to form a Good bed of coals. D to Start the fire choose one of the following methods 1. Pour liquid starter Over briquet and allow to penetrate a minute or two then Light. Or pres Oak 10 to 12 briquet in some starter 20 minutes or until they Stop bubbling. A Coffee can is a Good Container for pre soaking. Then place them around the outer Edge of the briquet Pyramid arid Light. Never squirt starter on an already lighted fire. And never never use gasoline. 2. Arrange crushed paper and Small pieces of dry kindling in Centre of Grill. Add a few briquet. Light kindling and paper. When it begins to Burn Well and the first briquet Start to glow carefully add More briquet. 3. If using an electric starter after plugging the line Cord into nearest outlet follow manufacturer s direct ions or place the hot Coil on briquet until they begin to glow. D the briquet Are ready when they Are veiled in a Grey Ash with a Reddish glow underneath. During the Day they will look Grey and at night they will glow red. There should be no flame. D test the temperature of the fire by cautiously holding hand Palm Side Down a few inches above the coals. If you can hold your hand Only two seconds the fire is hot 3 seconds Means medium hot 4 seconds Means medium 5 seconds Means a Low fire. D arrange the coals in an open layer using Long handled tongs. The heat of the fire will depend upon the space Between briquet. They May be just touching or up to one Inch apart. For even cooking the coals should be spread to extend a Little beyond the area of the food to be cooked. D to reduce heat you May raise the Grill spread the coals farther apart or move the coals out from under the food to form a Circle around instead of under it. O to increase heat do one or More of the following lower the Grill open All drafts to increase the flow of air move the coals closer together add More briquet around the Edge of the fire then move them into the Centre. Do not put cold briquet on top of coals or they will reduce the temperature and result in uneven heating d be sure to gather All the pieces of equipment you la be needing ahead of time. N before cooking Oil Grill or Spray with nonstick coating to help make cleanup easier. D use Long handled tongs instead of Forks to handle meats and poultry so they won t lose any juices. D slash edges of steaks chops or Ham slices so they won t curl. D trim excess fat from meat to pre vent flare ups. D use a Spray gun filled with water to put out flames. The finer the Spray the better. When dousing a flare up be careful not to Sprinkle the water Over a wide cooking area or it will lower the temperature of the coals and May cause steaming of the food. It could even put the fire out. D a Small clean Paintbrush is Good for brushing on sauces and marinades. D if using skewers try to get Long sturdy ones that will reach completely across the Grill. If using Bamboo ones soak first in water. When thread ing skewers leave a Small Gap Between pieces of food to allow for Good Basting and heat penetration if at All possible leave at least 4 inches Between the food and the skewer handle. D Cherry tomatoes onions Green Pep pers and Squash Don t have the same cooking times As meats so you will do better to thread them on separate skew ers for better c control. D thread meats on to rotisserie spit so the weight is balanced for even turning and uniform cooking. D whether foods Are basted during the entire cooking time or during the last 15 to 30 minutes depends upon the sauce ingredients. Those High in sugar Toma to sauce or other ingredients that Burn readily should be brushed on toward the end of cooking. D to make wonderful smelling bar Becue fires toss in an Herb such As Bay thyme fennel Dill or Marjoram near the end of cooking time. D Hickory Apple or Cherry Wood chips May be added to the charcoal during the last part of cooking for Spe Cial flavor. Soak the chips in water if you want to increase the smoke. D hot coals not burned away during cooking May be saved. If your Grill has a Hood and Damper close them tightly. If not carefully Transfer the hot coals to a heavy Iron pot or bucket. Cover tightly to smother fire. D store briquet in a dry place be cause they absorb moisture easily. Damp briquet kindle very slowly.
