    Hello Mr. Bayless, I have been a admirer of your style and skill with Mexican food. As of today when you mention "over rated marinates" made me an advocate for you for the rest of my life regarding grilling with SALT and PEPPER. Yes, well said Mr. Bayless, That is in my opinion the best thing on meat/fish on the grill, what I have been using for 45 years. Maybe some garlic. I hope to meet you in Chicago, or better yet in Mexico and then I could call you my friend Rick. Thanks for all you share. Gary

    I love this tutorial in its comprehensive and uncluttered sensibility. I especially love the way you salted the meat with your fingers (as opposed to free pouring out of a shaker with no gauge) to tacitly titrate the amount. I will presume you are using kosher salt, opposed to common table salt, which requires more liberal amounts with less "saltiness"

      My current gas grill has a glass panel in the metal hood, which is handy to keep an eye on things without opening the lid too often. I’ve had it about a year, and use it often. The glass has held up well, but I clean it lightly after grilling.

    One of the best videos I have seen in awhile, alot of comments about wire brush, etc but to each his own…I have heard about cleaning with a onion and running a potato over the grates before cooking, wondered if you have ever heard that as well…gonna try this summer.

    • @LtKregorov
      @LtKregorov 10 місяців тому

      Not really. Just setup a indirect zone in your charcoal pit. You use the hot zone to sear and then transfer the meat to the indirect zone. You then close the lid, cut the air intake to about nothing (depending on the fire you started) and cut the smoke exhaust too to a small hole. This will create an oven where the fire will have a harder time breathing, creating more smoke and reducing its power, which allows you to control the temperature you want inside. The smoke of the charcoal will have a harder time to get out because of the small exhaust. You will infuse more flavor in your meat and will slowly rise its internal temperature to the level you prefer. The meat won't burn because there is no fire under it. Ideally, you get yourself an electronic probe that send the internal temperature of the meat to your cellphone, and you crack a beer waiting for the best meat you've ever done in that charcoal.

    No mention of cross contamination? Also. Many will heat the grill up w the lid down after cooking to burn off the residue. Then brush it off. Especially w cast iron. And finally to heat up an open broiler, you really need to put a crappy sheet pan over the grill to get it up to temp for service. Thoughts?
