Cooking tip # 1!

Make sure you know what you are going to need.

A great BBQ is about more than just firing up the grill. Avoid these common mistakes to keep your summer cookout on point:

1️⃣ Cooking on high heat only
Not everything needs maximum flames. Control your heat for better flavor and texture.

2️⃣ Flipping meat too often
Let it develop that beautiful sear before turning.

3️⃣ Skipping the prep
Prep your ingredients, season ahead and have everything ready before guests arrive.

4️⃣ Forgetting to rest the meat
Cutting too early lets all those flavorful juices escape.

5️⃣ Only focusing on the main dish
Great sides, sauces, and fresh elements take a BBQ from good to unforgettable.
