woman grilling1 Working Divas' Guide to Grilling 1Memorial Day Weekend is here, the unofficial beginning of Summer…so it’s time to sparkle up the grill and take in the Summertime fun.

Too often we leave the grilling to the fellas, well this season ladies it’s time for us to put our grilling hats on and show them what we are working with.

For the next few days we will feature Working Diva Grilling Tips and recipes that will make your cookout shine. GirlsAtTheGrill.com have helped us out with their grilling, “Do and Don’ts,” that will make us Grilling Divas in no time.

  • Know the cooking methods for beef, poultry, fish and veggies.
  • Do not peek under the lid; every time you lift the lid, heat escapes and the cooking time increases.
  • Do not add flammable liquid to the fire; this means, no lighter fluid. Use either crumbled newspaper or fire starter cubes.
  • Remember to keep the air vents open, otherwise the fire will go out.
  • Make sure charcoal briquettes are grey-ashed before cooking.
  • Do not flip more food more than once unless a recipe specifically requires it.
  • Do not move or turn meat with a fork; this lets all the yummy juices and flavor escape.
  • Control flare-ups with a closed lid, not a spray bottle filled with water.
  • Use an instant-read meat thermometer. The only fail-safe way to test for doneness. The thermometer reads the internal temperature of meat and poultry in a matter of seconds.
