BARBECUING GUIDE
The following cuts, thicknesses, weights, and barbecuing times
are meant to be guidelines rather than hard and fast rules.
Cooking times are affected by such factors as altitude, wind,
outside temperature, and desired doneness.
Barbecue steaks, fish fillets, boneless chicken pieces, and
vegetables using the direct method for the time given on the
chart or to the desired doneness, turning once halfway through
barbecuing time.
Barbecue joints, bone-in poultry pieces, whole fish, and thicker
cuts using the indirect method for the time given on the chart or
until an instant-read thermometer reaches the desired internal
temperature. Cooking times for beef are for the US Department
of Agriculture’s definition of medium doneness unless otherwise
noted.
NOTE: General rule for barbecuing fish: 4 to 5 minutes per 1.25
cm thickness; 8 to 10 minutes per 2.5 cm thickness.
