Fun and Safe Summer Grilling
Prepare your
grill and prep
your food
Follow ing are som e tips to
prepare your grill and prep
your food for great grilling
results.
Preparing your grill:
- Before you begin grilling,
w ipe o ff excess dirt and clean
w ire grates by rem oving burnt
residue.
- T urn on the gri 11 and let heat on
high (500°F) for five to ten m inutes
before cooking.
- Let w ire grates cool, then “sea­
son” grill to prevent sticking by
brushing grates with oil (ideally,
peanut oil - w hich d o esn 't burn
easily).
Prepping beef, chicken or sea­
food for grilling:
- T haw any frozen m eats or sea­
food in the refrigerator before cook­
ing. N ever leave m eats un-refriger-
ated in w arm weather.
- Rub oil or butter on m eat to
prevent sticking.
- Season herbs and spices, gar­
lic, salt and pepper im m ediately
before grilling for m axim um taste.
Try m arinating in G oya’s M ojoC ri-
ollo - a tangy blend o f orange and
lem on ju ices com bined with garlic
and other spices - for a few hours
beforehand for flavorful food sen­
sations.
For best grilling results:
- F or chicken: place on the h ot­
test part o f the grill and sear for 3
m inutes on each side. Then, m ove
to a cooler area and baste with
m arinade frequently. Chicken is
done when the m eat is w hite and
ju ices are clear.
-F o r fish: useagrill
basket to keep deli­
cate fillets or w hole
fish intact. Oil and
h ea t b ask et b efo re
p lacing fish inside.
It’s done w hen the
m eat is “ju st firm ” -
raw is soft and over­
done is hard and firm.
- For red meat: cook
on the highest tem ­
perature until there is
no pink on the inside. Flip every
three m inutes until reaching d e­
sired readiness.
- Im m ediately before rem oving
the m eat or fish from the grill,
sprinkle again with seasoning such
as G o y a’s A dobo seasoning for
added flavor. A llow m eat or fish
one to tw o m inutes to “relax" w hile
the ju ices flow and the flavor sets
in, then serve with sensational sum ­
m er side dishes. - G rilled vegetables
are a tasty and healthy addition to
grilled chicken, fish or steaks. For
added flavor, slice fresh vegetables
into quarters, peel o ff outer skin
and season before grilling.

“A griculture is not about food

Sciences. “ It is about the stew ard­
ship o f the land, and the protection
o f the environm ent. Agriculture has
to do with the people, fam ilies in

heartaches and hard work. It is also
about beauty."
