Five Summer Barbecue Essentials

Article by Joshua Adekane









There isn’t anything that smells more heavenly than crisp and fatty barbecue meat sizzling and cooking on a hot grill. Your neighbors will love the smell of barbecue cooking at your own house and immediately follow where it’s coming from. When you are grilling barbecue in your backyard, you wouldn’t want to do it without drinking an ice-cold beer or a soda, yet you also don’t want your work table from getting wet, which is why you need to have a koozie on stand by. Whether you also choose to have a beach barbecue or a pool-side barbecue to keep your body cool and quench your thirst, you will always want something cold to drink nearby, thus the need for those koozies.

Number 1) Barbecue Grill

Prior to readying those charcoal and hot stones or whatever you use for that barbecue grill as well as other equipments, keep a cooler full of ice with assorted beverages for those who want to watch how you work and have that great conversation in front of the grill. In addition, take those koozies out for guests who want to hang out near the grill to protect their beverages, since the grill will really steam them. Collect your stuff together to prevent frequent trips to and from the house like previously mentioned; ready the grill, gas and and coals. Of course, a grill that’s in top condition must be ready especially if it’s a brick one; make sure it is clean. The choice is entirely up to you. You also need fuel depending on your grill heat source. Then fire it up and let it get to your desired cooking temperature.

Number 2) Something to Barbecue

What’s a barbecue grill for without that delectable meat to grill? Make sure that you have enough to share with everybody. Cover your meat and keep it cool (not frozen) while you are readying your barbecue grill so it stays fresh before you put them on the grill. You can barbecue any type of meat from whole pigs to hamburgers, hot dogs and steaks and don’t forget chicken. Sausages are also excellent barbecue picks.

Number 3) Sauces and Seasonings

Don’t just put that raw meat on the grill to cook and expect wonders; you must also marinate or sprinkle with some goodness while doing so. You can use a sauce mop to swish barbecue sauce directly onto the meat. Wood chips like hickory will make your barbecue smell and taste perfectly. Dried hardwoods are good for cooking because they don’t sap and bring out strange taste to your meat. These can be soaked or not and there are opinions that go both directions. You can also sprinkle dried herbs and even rub the meat with herbs for that added aroma.

Number 4) Barbecue Accessories

This can include forks, potholders or grill gloves, a spray bottle to maintain down the heat flares, a fast read thermometer, and tongs to name a few. Have them nearby so you can easily get to them when you need them.

Number 5) Cold Beverage

When you are barbecuing it usually is a warm day or evening so obviously you must have anything to soothe the throat as you grill. That heat will surely get hot as you stand in front of it. In addition, have the can inside a koozie to maintain the can from dripping on your grill.

Barbecue Smokers – Top 7 BBQ Woods For Your Barbecue Smokers This Summer!

Barbecue Smokers – Top 7 BBQ Woods For Your Barbecue Smokers This Summer!

Article by Tegan Templeton









Barbecue smokers can be used all year round to produce delicious flavored foods using the smoking process. Smoking and curing are ancient methods of food preservation used for protein rich foods, such as meat and fish, which would otherwise rapidly decompose. There are essentially two types of smoking, hot and cold, although it is possible to combine the two. Nowadays, it is really easy to smoke your own food at home, using barbecue smokers.

Whilst our ancestors used smoking and curing as essential elements for their overall survival, in modern times, barbecue smoked food is considered something of a delicacy. This is in no small part due to the flavor that the smoking process imparts. Also, the range of smoked flavors that can be created, depending upon the selection and mixing of the smoking woods, is endless. This probably explains why home barbecue smokers are now fairly commonplace and rising in popularity.

Nonetheless, selecting smoking wood for barbecue smokers can be rather daunting at first and it is not uncommon for many aspiring “wood smokers” to play safe and buy commercially flavored BBQ wood chunks or chips. As flavorsome as these products may first appear, it is unlikely that you will be able to recreate the authentic smoked taste that real wood chunks emit on the barbecue. Smokers are only as good as the raw materials that are used. So, if you are going to take the time and effort to smoke your own food then you should only use authentic woods in barbecue smokers and not some highly flavored substitute.

There are numerous woods that can be used to smoke food produce. Each will add its own distinct flavor, and sometimes color, to the produce being smoked. Some of the most popular BBQ smoke woods include hickory, mesquite, oak, pecan, apple, alder and cherry. These are all widely available to purchase online. Fruit tree woods can also be used for barbecue smoking. However, not all hardwoods are suitable for all meats or fish and you need to ensure that you match the wood to the food that you plan to smoke in your barbecue smokers.

Softwoods are never used for smoking primarily due to the resin in the woods. In any event, the smoking flavor that softwoods generate is typically bitter or tarry and rarely appetizing. Also, hardwoods are denser than softwoods which means that they burn longer and at higher temperatures. This makes them more suitable than softwoods for smoking. Woods to avoid include soft pine woods such as cedar, cypress, fir and spruce. Pressure treated woods should NEVER be used in barbecue smokers as they usually contain toxic chemicals such as arsenic. For this reason alone, you should always ensure that you purchase woods for barbecue smokers from a reputable source.

Here are the top 7 BBQ woods that you can use on barbecue smokers this summer.

Hickory Wood

Hickory is the most popular smoking wood in the United States. It can be likened to a heavy bacon flavor and is typically used for smoking ribs, pork, brisket, ham, and beef. It is one of the strongest flavored woods and resembles the sweet smoked taste that most of us would associate with everyday barbecue sauce. You can blend hickory with more subtle flavored woods such as apple wood to avoid overpowering your food.

Mesquite Wood

One of the hottest and smokiest woods you can select for barbecue smokers, Mesquite is a strong, sweet flavored smoking wood. However, it is liable to generate a bitter taste, particularly if the wood is green and has not been suitably aged. When smoking with mesquite wood for the first time it may be advisable to blend with a milder flavored smoke wood. Suitable for most red meats, in particular large cuts of beef, but not lamb.

Oak Wood

White oak is a popular smoking wood that is widely used for commercial smoking. Long burning, white oak is a classic smoking wood that is particularly popular in the United Kingdom. It produces a heavy smoky flavor that is good with red meat, especially beef, brisket, pork, fish and heavy game. You can also use red oak in barbecue smokers, which is sweeter in flavor but a good choice when smoking ribs

Pecan Wood

Burns at a lower temperature in barbecue smokers than other smoking woods and thus, is an ideal choice for slow cooking. Subtly sweet, pecan can be blended with mesquite and oak. Suitable for poultry, beef and pork.

Apple Wood

Apple wood produces a mild, slightly fruity and sweet flavor. Good for blending with other woods as it emits less smoke. Typically used for smoking pork, ham and poultry. However, as the flavor is so delicate, it can also be used for smoking fish and seafood.

Alder Wood

Best used with fish, it is commonly the red alder which is used for smoking. Alder produces an extremely light, delicate flavour with a hint of sweetness when used in barbecue smokers. Can also be used to give a lightly smoked taste to poultry and pork.

Cherry Wood

Subtle, smooth, fruity, slightly sweet flavor that is good for smoking beef, poultry and pork. If you’re smoking turkey then try blending cherry wood with oak wood. Also suitable for smoking vegetables.

These are just some of the most popular BBQ woods that can be used in barbecue smokers. As you become more experienced, you can begin to experiment with other woods such as almond, ash, walnut and fruit tree wood varieties such as orange, grape pear and plum. Over a period of time, it is undoubtedly possible to create and refine your very own unique blend of woods for barbecue smokers.

Now is the Time for Routine Maintenance Of Your Summer Barbecue for the Patio or Beach Cottage

Article by Kirk Nobbe









Why wait for a ruined barbecue evening party or meal. ? Summer is short enough. Now is the time to clean and check your barbecue grill.

Amazingly people never think of servicing and maintenance of their trusted barbecue. After all when falls arrives it is time to put away the trusted barbecue safely away and forgotten. When the barbecue is unused it is put far out of reach and mind in a cold closed garage or shed. Or even away at the cabin or camp at the lake or beach.

Here are the common gas grill problems and easy solutions to fix any problems that commonly arise,

1) Burners on the barbecue that will not light or do not give much heat. When the barbecue burners will not light there is most likely an obstruction in the fuel supply line. This normally occurs in the gas line in the area between the off-on valve on the barbecue and the barbecue gas burner itself. Guess what just like a computer glitch it usually a “bug” in this case a poor dead insect who wandered the Wong way. Even when the valve is off, insects can get into and nest in the line. How to fix this event: First turn off the propane or fuel tank completely. That is completely. Disconnect that fuel line. Next immerse the fuel line in cleaner and use a long, soft narrow wire to thoroughly clean the inside of the fuel tube. You can try standard soap and water – from a high pressure garden house or an auto parts cleaning or paint thinner type solvent. Do not use a highly flammable liquid like gasoline. It is more than dangerous and can ignite in less than a flash. Ensure that the line is dry. Leave it out over a couple of days or blow it clean with an air compressor It is wise to replace the parts that were removed only after spraying them with soapy water on the connections to check for and ensure that there are no leaks on the connections on in the hoses. The leak will quickly and clearly be evident as the soapy water will bubble and show evident bubbles.

2) Uneven Heat From the Burner When Barbecuing. If you are experiencing uneven heat from the burners on your barbecue you can almost be sure that some of your burners are corroded or rusted away. The metal in a barbecue burner rusts just like a hammer or saw left out in the rain. The more expensive and large your barbecue is the more burners you will have and the more likely the problem of rusted and corroded burners. When a burner is brand new all of the holes in the barbecue metal burner itself are all the same size. As you use the barbecue and enjoy it the grease and food somehow find their way to the bottom of the barbecue. As a result the silt and grease works to partially or even fully clog these barbecue burner fuel holes. Rust as well from summer rains wetting the metal burners works similar magic to result in uneven heat from the barbecue burners. What to do. It is all very low tech and standard. It just takes a bit of time for routine maintenance. With an ordinary wire brush, such as you would use for paint scraping and an ice pick or thin screwdriver simply clean out the holes to make them as if they were all the same size and new again Summer is short enough. Why waste your time and energy towards frustration at the summer barbecue whether it is in the backyard, at the beach or at the summer cottage or camp? Now is the time for a little routine maintenance and service of your trusted summer barbecuing utensil – your gas barbecue.

How I Won The Summer Barbecue Sauce Bet

Article by Click Link Below To Try Out Famous Barbecue Sauce









A young guy was going by a seedy looking diner, when he noticed a sign in the window offering a free dinner. A genuine dinner was an event our hero had not participated in for a very long time, so in he went, found the boss, and requested the advertised free meal. First our man had to drink a jar of very spicy barbecue sauce. Next, there had been an alligator in the back room with a bad tooth, which he must remove, and ultimately, he’d have to apply 2 coats of nail polish, to the waitress’s toes. If he could do it all in twenty minutes, he would win the best dinner he had ever had. The child grabbed the bottle of barbecue sauce, chugged it right down, and proceeded to the back room. The ensuing din was something like you’ve never heard. There had been thumping, banging, scratching, and a scream or two. This time, the noise was awesome. If you can think what it would sound like if a semi lorry drove thru a china shop and into a pet store, you would be getting near to the awful racket coming out of that room. Suddenly, it was silent. Silent like a funeral, which the manager thought he may have to arrange, if that hobo failed to make an appearance soon. Then, with a loud bang, the door to the back room swung open, and there he stood. Our intrepid fellow was scratched from top to tail, the rags he had been wearing were shredded to a state beyond rag, and you could tell by the look on his face, that he may have decided this free dinner came with quite a ticket. I’m finished with the alligator, and it should only take two minutes to pull the waitress’s tooth.’ .

Get ready for summer foodservice with a catering bbq

With summer just around the corner, now would probably be a good time to consider outdoor catering over the coming months – and for most caterers there is one option – a catering bbq (barbecue). These are considerably different to home-use barbecues, mostly because of the size needed to manage successful commercial outdoor catering (a chef can’t prepare 300 covers on a foot square fire!), but also because high heat is needed to comply with food hygiene regulations. Similarly, the heat must be consistent – not start off hot and get cooler – throughout the service period, which means a combination of gas and charcoal is frequently used.

You will find that a catering BBQ can be found in different shapes and sizes. Most likely the barbecue will be rectangular and flat, but traditional shapes like oil drums cut in half are also common, although these tend only to be charcoal powered, not gas. When you make your purchase, consider where you will be storing the barbecue when it isn’t in use – recatangular bbq’s usually fold flat and hence take up less space than drum-shaped barbecues, but they can still be very long. It might make more sense to purchase two smaller barbecues rather than one big one – this will also allow you to cater at smaller events and still be profitable, as you would be using half the fuel.

As well as storage considerations, you should think about how you will move your barbecue, as they are heavy industrial items. It may be useful to have wheels on one of the sets of legs, but check at least that it has a carrying handle. Some manufacturers offer lightweight versions specifically because of this. The features you get on your barbecue will depend on your budget, but you should at least get a gas adaptor if it is a gas powered machine. If it is gas powered, consider where the bottle will sit – not in the way of the chef. Other than this, consider piezo ignitors and how you will get the barbecue alight. Some BBQs will have enamel trays, but all will require cleaning after use, usually with a wire brush and elbow grease! When you are making your purchase, consider who will be using your catering BBQ. If you have several members of staff you may need to make sure that the barbecue has adjustable height – not just for the comfort of your staff who may have to bend over the barbecue to cook for long periods of time, but also for safety considerations. Also consider your budget and make sure that the BBQ you buy is as strong and robust as you can afford – this is a capital investment for your business, so the better the quality of purchase the better your return should be, assuming a long term plan.

The Weber Summit 450- Ignite Your Summer Barbecue

The Weber Summit 450- Ignite Your Summer Barbecue

The Weber Summit 450 is a unique grill that offers that a genuine charcoal flavor without the hassle, dirty hands and cleanup of charcoal. Having four burners, the 450 allows for ideal cooking temps without compromising that rich moist flavor.

How does it do it? The 450 has patented Flavorizer bars that use the drippings from the food to create smoke that flavors the food even further. These bars sit above each of the burners so that this smoking occurs as the food is cooking. This smokey rich flavor is what keeps the neighbors talking about the food about that is cooked over at your house on the 450 grill. With four individual burner controls featuring well crafted precision control, you can feel comfortable cooking several different types of meat or sides at once, knowing that each will be cooked to perfection.

In addition to the burners in the main cooking area, the 450 has a side burner that is exposed by lifting a panel. This side burner is tailor made for cooking up your corn, potatoes or your favorite bean side dish. That way, you won’t have to be tromping in and out of the house while your significant other gives you dirty looks and your guests wonder where you’ve wondered off to. Best part about the side panel? You can hide it if you aren’t using it with handy little trap door that closes right over the top.

]]>

If you have a taste for something a little different, the included rotisserie can roast a chicken evenly while keeping the meat tender and moist. You could even roast your Thanksgiving turkey on the grill with the powerful 110 volt motor that rotates the meat evenly. The rotisserie just gives me yet another excuse to cook outside as much as can, for as long as I can. Heck, I even cooked an 15 pound Thanksgiving turkey on there. If you like smoked meats or salmon, the Weber 450 has you covered there as well with it’s built in smoker.

The sturdy construction is quality throughout and the ignition system is top notch. As most people who use grills know, the ignition system is one of the first things to fail, but that is not the case here. Many who have bought this grill are reporting that it’s working as well as the first time they used it. Additionally, it works well in colder weather where cheaper grills fail. If you ever do have a problem, the unit has extensive warranty coverage between 5 and 25 years depending on the part in question.

The brushed stainless steel finish only adds to the overall quality. The brushed finish(not high shine) steel hides scratches and other signs of wear and tear. Your grill will not only perform great, but will look great for years to come.

If you enjoy cooking quality food and want to extend your outdoor grilling beyond hot dogs and hamburgers, then the Weber Summit 450 is an ideal choice. With a grill like this, being the king grill master of the neighborhood and talk of the block party is just around the corner.

Sizzling Summer Barbecue Recipes

With all the health and diet advice out there today, it’s hard to know how to eat right. Do we skip the carbs and chow down on burgers, or go vegetarian and make a beeline for tofu Pad Thai and grilled veggies? The truth is, health issues aside, eating should also be FUN. It’s summer – invite your friends over and whip up one of these great down-home recipes. For one night, stop worrying about waistlines and let your taste buds take control!
 
Herbed Garlic Mediterranean Beef Skewers
 
¼ cup fresh herbs and spices (Mediterranean blend)
1 ¼ lb boneless steak
½ cup white wine
8 medium mushrooms
½ red onion
Salt, pepper, and olive oil to taste
Wooden skewers
 
Soak the skewers in white wine for 10-15 minutes, and prepare the beef by dividing it into chunks and applying a dry rub of salt and Mediterranean herbs and spices. This grilling recipe is great for hot days when heavy, sticky-sweet sauces seem overwhelming; the light, pleasant flavor of the herbs and wine is mild and cooling. Chop the onion into large pieces and thread the onion, mushroom caps, and beef onto the skewers once they’ve finished soaking. Let finished skewers sit in the refrigerator for 10-20 minutes, and then pop ‘em on a preheated grill! Let each side cook for approximately 4-5 minutes, or until beef is cooked to your preferences. Add a little salt and pepper, sit back, and enjoy! Makes 4 skewers.

Grilled Pizza
 
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 tsp white sugar
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tbsp olive oil
3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
Your choice of pizza toppings, sauce, etc.
 
This is a fabulous way to make really professional, delicious pizza in the comfort of your own home! The grill creates an effect similar to that of a genuine pizza oven. If you wish to make your own pizza dough, simply dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water, proof for ten minutes, and mix in the other ingredients. Knead this for around 8 minutes and then set it aside to rise until doubled. After about an hour, punch the dough down, add some basil and oregano, and let it rise one more time. If this seems like too much work, consider buying a premade pizza dough – it’s all the fun with none of the labor! Either way, spread your finished dough onto a preheated grill, brushing each side with a bit of olive oil, and layer on the pizza ingredients you like best – red sauce cheese, olives, sardines, whatever catches your fancy. Grill until crisp and brown with melted cheese.
 
Summer recipes like these make life a little better for everyone – no matter how many calories may be involved!

Tidying Up After a Summer Barbecue

Tidying Up After a Summer Barbecue

Now that the mercury is topping out above 90-degrees Fahrenheit, everyone is enjoying the seasonal delights of summer barbecues. But like any get-together, barbecues are a homeowner’s best friend and a maids nightmare. Hamburgers and hotdogs are topped with colorful condiments like ketchup and mustard that can smear all over furniture. Popsicles and frozen treats melt and leave trails of sticky liquid all over the floors. And guests traipse pool water, grass and all other sorts of outdoor debris throughout your house.

If your house cleaning service doesn’t come for a few days after your outdoor fiesta, follow these tips to clean it up in a cinch. First, think proactively before the party even starts. Place mats at the entrances guests will use, which will trap a large amount of dirt and debris before it enters your home. You can also set up tents and umbrellas so that guests can eat outside no matter what the weather may have in store. Place drinks and condiments outside to prevent indoor spills, and use disposable plastic tablecloths to catch any drips.

After the party, begin with the floors and work your way up. Clean a small area at a time, and tell your family and any visitors if a floor is wet. Since you’ll be looking for spots and drips, rather than an overall cleaning, it’s a good idea to use an all-purpose cleaner and a rag rather than a mop to wipe up after a party. During the summer months in New Jersey, condensation can accumulate on cold hardwood floors and make them extremely slippery. Once you’ve finished cleaning, wipe the floors with a dry towel to remove any last bits of liquid.

Next, tackle doors and doorknobs. Guests (especially young ones) are likely to transfer sticky residue to handles, and it can go unnoticed for several days, attracting insects and pests. You may also need to wipe cabinetry in the same manner, particularly those located in the kitchen or bathroom. Clean the rest of these areas as you normally would; the key is in paying attention to spots that partygoers might touch or contact.

To clean up outdoors, remove any delicate or valuable items from the patio or deck. Once secure, spray the entire outdoor area with a garden hose. Be sure to aim the water away from the house. This will help dissolve any food or sugary spills and prevent pests from tracking into your home. If necessary, use an eco-friendly outdoor solvent to clean troublesome areas. For glass or plastic patio furniture, you can also use an all-purpose cleaner and rags to remove glass rings or food residue.

Though they’re a beast to prepare for, barbecues are a lot of fun during the warm summer months. But don’t let the clean-up scare you; think like your maids whom you hire for house cleaning service, and before you know it, the entire house will be back to its normal spotless self. So, fire up the grill and sip a summery cocktail; it’s bound to be a great time!

 

Barbecue can be home owners best option to enjoy the grilled food but mess left after that needs to be cleaned by the expert maids team. Let’s learn some basic of doing it some of the house cleaning service on your own.
