Directions for grilling meat on grill

• Trim excess fat from meat. Cut fat, making sure you do not cut into the lean.

(This will stop the fat curling.)

• Arrange on the rack. Brush with melted butter or oil.

• Halfway through, turn the meat over.

Directions for grilling fish and seafood

Place fish and seafood on the rack. Whole fish should be scored diagonally on both sides

before grilling. Brush fish and seafood with melted butter, margarine or oil before and

during cooking. This helps stop the fish drying out. Grill for times recommended in the chart.

Whole fish and fish steaks should be carefully turned over halfway through grilling time. If

desired thick fillets can also be turned halfway.
