The central element of cozy summer evening meals is grilling, which simultaneously adds a special flavor to prepared meals and to social or family life. However, it is not enough to put the ingredients on the grill, there are some practices that should be followed in order to get the best, tastiest results.

What device do you have?

The charcoal grill is the classic version, and the most common devices also come from this category. Charcoal gives food its characteristic flavor that cannot be achieved in the oven. A step forward if you choose a grill with a folding top, the food will soften faster without burning. With a gas grill, you don’t have to worry about setting the fire, you can bake with it at an even temperature, but you may miss that certain extra flavor. On the balcony, however, it can be useful so that the smoke does not disturb the other residents. The electric grill does the same and can even be used indoors because it takes up little space. It serves well when cooler or rainier weather hits.

However, what you have to pay attention to with all types is that the grill device is stable and horizontal. Do not even accidentally have any flammable material near it, and for safety’s sake, prepare a bucket of water there when baking!

What should the fire be like?

If you put the ingredients on an open flame, they will burn, so light the charcoal 35-40 minutes before baking. Always put the things to be baked on the grill when the fire is just smoldering. In this case, the embers glow red and their surface is covered with thin, gray ash. If we think it’s still too hot, we push the embers apart a little with a stick, and if we want to raise the heat a little, we dig them up. There are foods that can be placed in aluminum foil directly into the cooling ashes. Potatoes, for example, will have a wonderful taste this way, which can be made crazy with a little sour cream, cheese and fried bacon.
