Direct and Indirect Grilling
Direct Grilling - For most grilling, the ignited coals are spread in a single layer under the food. This
is called direct grilling and is appropriate for relatively quick-cooking items such as hamburgers,
steaks and most seafood. The single layer of coals emits even, steady heat, whether the grill lid is
open or closed, and represents the way most people grill. For more control, pile some of the coals
on one side of the grill where they will emit intense heat. You can move the food around on the grill,
setting it over the very hot coals when you want to sear it or when a thick piece needs to cook a
little more quickly. You can also use the dampers to control the temperature in your grill.
Indirect Grilling - For items that take longer to cook, you will want to use indirect grilling. This
method is for long, slow cooking in a covered grill. For indirect cooking, the coals are piled on one
side of the grill, or divided and piled on two sides. This leaves an empty space next to the coals or
between them. Food cooked over indirect heat is often started over direct heat and then moved to
the cooler (empty) part of the grill for even, slow cooking. To make the heat as even as possible,
construct two piles of coals. (Remember to keep a spray bottle filled with water on hand to
extinguish any flare-ups.) Once you get used to the indirect method, you may prefer to use it for
more grilling tasks. Although it may take a little longer, it is an excellent cooking method and a sure
way to prevent the food from burning and to promote even cooking.
Grilling with Wood Chips/Wood Chunks
For a more robust smoke flavor while using charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal, try adding wood
chips or several wood chunks to the fire. Wood chunks are available in a variety of natural flavors,
and can be used alone or in addition to charcoal. As a general rule, any hardwood that bears a fruit
or nut is suitable for cooking. However, different woods have very different tastes. Experiment with
different woods to determine your personal favorite, and always use well-seasoned wood. Green or
fresh-cut wood can turn food black, and tastes bitter.
