(B) Indirect Cooking Method (continued)
Preheat the barbe
c
ue with all burners on Hi and the hood closed for 5 minutes.
Importantly, once the barbe
c
ue is pre-heated and the hood is closed, heat is trapped around the food, so the
burners that are on will mostly only need to be on Low and in many cases, more of the burners turned OFF . Heat
from the lit burners will circulate all through the hood cooking quite evenly.
On a 4 burner barbe
c
ue, 2 burners under the grills on Low and 2 burners under the hotplate OFF is often the best
setting for roasting.
Place the roast on its rack in the drip pan onto the hotplate. Contrary to some beliefs, the slower and lower
(temperature) the food is cooked, the more even, tender and juicier the results will be. Importantly,
use the hood thermometer as a warning guide that the barbe
c
ue is too hot. For roasting most foods, aim to keep the
thermometer around 160ºC to avoid burning. Note that the temperature at the roasting rack may be up to 25ºC
higher than the temperature measured at the hood thermometer.
For short periods of browning only, or for 10 minutes to make pork crackling, Ideal Hood Thermometer aim for around
240ºC. Note that temperature at the roasting rack may be up to 25ºC higher than the temperature measured at the
hood thermometer and most foods will quickly burn at this setting.
For smoking, lower temperatures and longer cooking times will result in Ideal Hood Thermometer more intense smoke
flavo
u
r and more tender meats. Aim for around 90ºC. Temperature for Smoking Note that temperature at the
roasting rack may be up to 25ºC higher than the temperature measured at Roasting Rack Temperature the hood
thermometer. Always use a probe Roasting Rack Temperature thermometer to ensure that the meat has cooked
all the way through to the correct temperature.
Don’t ever let the temperature reach above 250º Celsius zone or the barbe
c
ue will overheat and burn your food. A
separate probe thermometer is available as an accessory from
barbecure retail
stores. This takes the guesswork
out of knowing when your food is cooked.
Always remember to switch the barbe
c
ue OFF once you are finished cooking.
