GRILLING RECIPES

COOK TIME GUIDELINES

The following cooking guidelines are just that "Guidelines", and are in no way the only way to cook.

TIP! For best results always allow for "Resting Time".  This allows the natural juices to migrate back 

into the meat fiber, giving a much juicer, flavorful cut.   Resting times can be as little as 3 minutes and 

up to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the protein. Use foil wrap to form a "tent" over the meat.
