Grilling Tips: 10 Tiny Changes to Improve Your Grill Skills
Clean Your Grill
It’s not the most exciting task, but keeping those grates clean is essential. Extra residue can cause food to stick, cling to unwanted flavors, or worse start a grease fire, one of the biggest grilling safety mistakes. To avoid serious buildup, clean your grill grates regularly.
Cut Notches in Your Steaks
To stop grilled steaks from getting that dreaded curl, the Char-Broil Great Book of Grilling suggests adding a few small notches to the fat areas before putting them on the grill. They’ll be perfectly flat and ready for a slab of compound butter.
Don’t Form Burger Patties Too Tightly
Our Test Kitchen finds that loosely formed burger patties retain their juices better while grilling. So don’t worry too much about packing the meat into perfect circles–how you cook them is more important. That’s just one of the most common burger mistakes we see.
Use a Two-Zone Fire
You can create direct and indirect heat zones on your grill by putting coals under just one half. That way, part of the grill is devoted to directheat cooking, while the other half is perfect for indirect cooking at lower temperatures.
CLOSED SUNDAYS

Maintain a healthy weight
A few years back, a study from the Association for Pet Obesity found that a whopping 61 percent of cats and 59 percent of dogs are overweight. Those are pretty alarming numbers, and point to why exercise and nutrition are so crucial to your pet feeling their best. If you’re unsure what your pet’s ideal weight should be, check with your vet. (If your pet is still in their early years, consult our cat weight guide or puppy weight chart for rules of thumb regarding their weight.)
