Preparing food for grilling
Trim the meat. Do not season meat with
salt before grilling as this draws the
juices out.
Add a little oil to lean meat if necessary.
Do not use other types of fat as they
can burn and cause smoke.
Clean fish in the normal way. To
enhance the flavour, add a little salt or
squeeze a little lemon juice over the
fish.
