Get Cooking With Barbeque

by Darren Smith

If you want a tasty way to avoid cooking in the kitchen this summer, barbequing is the way to go. You can always use an electric grill inside the house, but the best flavor and most tempting aromas result from cooking outdoors over a flame. You can choose from a charcoal or gas grill, or maybe you prefer a smoker. Some of the best BBQ tips recommend using marinades, rubs and sauces to add zest to your cooking. There are lots of online recipe sites, as well as cookbooks in the store, that have instructions for barbequing any kind of food you can think of. Any way you grill it up, though, the end result will be delectable.

There are several different bases that are used for a BBQ sauce, and they each lend their own distinctive flavor to the food you’re cooking. There are sauces based on tomato, mustard, vinegar or even fruit. You can also try using a sauce to marinate the meat before cooking. There are also marinades and sauces that are applied during the cooking process. And lastly there’s the finishing sauce that’s slathered on either during the final stages of cooking or for use when eating the meat.

Rubs are another BBQ staple, and are often used along with sauce. A barbeque rub is a blend of seasonings that are applied to the surface of the uncooked meat, which then infuse the whole cut while it’s cooking. The advantage of rubs over sauces is that they cling to the meat and don’t drip away. This means they provide more flavor.

Try using all three forms of flavoring in combination to get the best taste possible. For instance, let the meat soak in the marinade for about 24 hours, then add the rub mixture. While your food is cooking on the grill, add some sauce to improve the taste and texture.

Also, there is more than one way to barbeque. Indoor cooking on a grill is always a possibility. However, an outdoor grill is the more flavorful option because of the added smoke flavor. You can choose between a charcoal grill, which gives it a more authentic flavor, or a gas grill. In either case, try adding some wood chips. This will give some extra flavor to the meat because of the distinctive aroma of the smoke that the chips produce during the cooking process.

Just remember that cooking barbeque can sometimes be a time consuming process. Some foods are pretty quick to cook, such as hamburgers and hot dogs. However, if ribs or roast are on the menu, slow cooking over a low flame is the only way to go.
