Fancy some grilled meat?
Grilled meat is a popular way of cooking meat that has been enjoyed for centuries all over the world. The technique involves grilling meat on a grill or brazier at a high temperature, resulting in tender, juicy meat with a unique texture and flavour.
Preparation of barbecued meat
Before cooking grilled meat, it is important to prepare it properly. As with grilled meat, it is essential to choose high-quality meat. The meat should be at room temperature before cooking so that it cooks evenly.
Most cuts of meat can be grilled, but some cuts are more suitable than others. Thicker cuts of meat are better, as they need more time to cook through. Cuts of meat such as steak, sirloin and ribeye are excellent choices for barbecued meat.
Marinating meat in a mixture of spices, herbs and olive oil for several hours before cooking can improve the flavour and texture of the meat. Coarse salt can also be used to rub the meat before cooking, which helps to create a crispy crust on the surface of the meat.
Before starting to cook, it is important to make sure that the brazier or grill is hot. Most experts recommend allowing the grill or grill pan to heat up for at least 30 minutes before cooking the meat. In addition, it is advisable to use a grill or brazier with a lid, as this helps to maintain the temperature and cook the meat evenly.
Once the grill or brazier is hot, the meat is placed on the grill. It is important not to move the meat too much during cooking, as this can cause it to stick to the grill and ruin the presentation and flavour of the meat. It is recommended to cook the meat for several minutes on each side before turning it, and it is important to use tongs rather than a fork to turn the meat, as forks can cause the meat to lose its juices.
In summary, braising is a popular cooking technique that offers tender, juicy meat with a unique texture and flavour. It is important to choose a high quality meat, marinate it properly and cook it on a grill or grill pan.
