Cooking Tips from Snapfinger Catering - Nothing Wrong With Grilling in the Winter!

This week's tip is from Chef Aaron at Creations Catering in Orlando, Florida - as he shares some quick tips for marinating and grilling.

Marinating:

Include soy sauce, fresh garlic,hot sauce, Worcestershire, onion, & olive oil into your marinades, even if it is just a small amount.  It will enhance the flavor greatly.

Grill like a professional:

For great grill marks take the meats out of a marinade & spray with olive oil before placing on med high clean grill at an angle. After a few minutes, reverse the angle, then flip after a few more minutes depending on how well done you like it & repeat.

A note from Ginger:

Great tips!!  One other thing:

If you are like me, you may find yourself wondering how long to cook your steak, so check out Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steak) for a temperature guide.  You will also find other sources suggesting specific times depending on the thickness of your steak.  One I found was on the Omaha Steak site: http://www.omahasteaks.com/servlet/OnlineShopping?Dsp=32&FID=recipe_cookchart.

There’s nothing wrong with grilling in the winter!
