Cooking tips: 

Preheat Your Grill:
Ensure your grill is preheated before cooking to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.

Oil Your Grates:
Brushing your grill grates with oil before cooking will help prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.

Use the Two-Zone Cooking Method:
Create both direct and indirect heat zones on your grill to have more control over cooking temperatures.

Let Meat Rest:
Allow your meat to rest for a few minutes after grilling to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in juicier, more flavourful meat.

Safety First:
Always keep a bucket of water or a fire extinguisher nearby and never leave your grill unattended while in use.

Dos and Don'ts for a Successful Barbecue:

Do:

Do invest in high-quality meat from George Bower Butchers for the best flavour and texture.

Do experiment with different marinades, rubs, and sauces to add variety to your barbecue spread.

Do clean your grill grates before and after each use to prevent the buildup of residue and ensure optimal flavour.

Don't:

Don't overcrowd the grill. Leave space between items to allow for proper airflow and even cooking.

Don't press down on your burgers or meats with a spatula while grilling. This can cause the juices to escape, resulting in dry meat.

Don't forget to have fun! Barbecuing is all about enjoying delicious food and good company.
