As with all cooking, grilling correctly is a culinary art and processes depend on the kind of barbecue being used. Charcoal grills require a different approach compared to gas barbecues. Although you may be an experienced griller, make sure to follow our 7 tips to successfully barbecue with gas and avoid problems.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

1. Start with a clean grill<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Keeping a grill clean and maintaining it with care will extend the life of your barbecue, and grill results will be better. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Any pieces of food that might have fallen into the grill should be removed. Grates should be scrubbed thoroughly after each barbecue party to avoid food from being burned at the next grill session. This will reduce fire flare-ups and unnecessary smoking as well as unhealthy burned flavours to your new barbecued food. Avoid food sticking with clean grates and produce clear grill marks. Luckily there are lots of bbq tools and accessories<\/a> to make it an easy job.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2. Check the fuel<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Gas barbecues<\/a> do not require a lot of preparation, simply turn them on and light.  Take care though to ensure you have enough fuel to keep the party going as running out of gas in the middle of a grilling session means an inconvenient trip to the shops and hungry guests. For correct instructions regarding fuel check the equipment manual.  Most likely propane or natural gas will be required depending on your grill installation. Propane is more powerful for grilling and natural gas is more suitable for gas cookers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

3. Control the temperature<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Control the temperature and get your gas grill ready to cook.  Not all cuts are cooked at high temperatures, and smaller cuts such as fish, or roasted foods can cook over a medium to low heat.   Multiple burners are ideal to create direct and indirect heat zones and can be controlled separately.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
