Preparing a good barbecue is one of life’s great pleasures that we share in our Yelow community.

However, if you want to become a licensed barbecue grill expert, you should know these crimes that screw up your bbq.

But don’t worry, here we also teach you how to deal with them, so get ready to delight everyone with these juicy tips that will finish cooking your mistakes.

3 Capital Crimes that harm your barbecue or BBQ

Do not wait until the charcoal is red hot.

If you don’t wait long enough, the heat will not be uniform throughout the grill and it will be difficult to get the meat to the point you want. You must keep in mind that the amount of charcoal and its quality directly influences the cooking and flavor.

It is important to consider the option of using the lid with less charcoal to obtain a slower and oven-like cooking. The good thing about using the lid is that the fuel adds flavor to your meat.

Grilling foods that are too fatty.

Salmon, chistorra sausage and other products with a lot of fat will cause the fat to fall into the coals and form an unpleasant smoke that leaves the food dry.

To cope with it you should avoid overly fatty foods, especially if it is saturated fat and avoid commercial sauces trying to make them homemade. In addition to tasting better and being healthier, the final dish will not be too greasy.

Salt before grilling.

Nowadays it is well known that salt takes out all the juices and dehydrates the meat, so you should know how and when to salt your food.

Dani Lechuca, Chef of the meat bar Bardeni, an expert in good meats, assures that

“The only thing that is certain is that it cannot be salted too early because it loses water, so it loses juiciness, it dries out.”

The ideal, especially in beef, is to salt it during and after cooking , except for specific exceptions, as in the case of a very fatty piece, which can also be salted just before roasting.
