Hi everyone!
I just wanted to share with you some of my Cooking Outdoors Tips that I have been posting to Twitter.com.
Here are the Cooking Outdoors Tips 1 – 20:
1. Swap Hershey’s chocolate with Peppermint Patties for a refreshing twist on the S’more.
2. Reeses’ Peanut Butter Cups instead of a chocolate square on S’mores and it is divine!
3. No Grill brush? Clean your grill by rubbing it with a fist size ball of aluminum foil.
4. To keep marshmallows from sticking together, add a little powdered sugar to the bag.
5. Every foil dinner needs a source of moisture like onion slices, soup or salad dressings, seasoning sauces, butter.
6. For juicy burgers, form the patties gently. Over working the patties forces the moisture out.
7. To fix a Ice cooler leak, apply melted paraffin wax inside and outside the leaky area.
8. Beef for grilling, broiling, and pan frying, the best cuts of meat are rib eye steaks, strip or shell steaks, and T bone.
9. Don’t mix ammonia and bleach because it will create toxic fumes.
10. Beef for roasting, top sirloin, tenderloin, standing rib roasts, and top rump roast are good candidates.
11. A sponge is actually a great way to spread germs! Use paper towels instead.
12. Plain liquid Ivory soap mixed with water is one of the best all-purpose cleaners. You can keep this solution in a spray bottle.
13. Beef for stir frying, flank, top round, and sirloin steak are good. These cuts are best cooked quickly, and since elastin is broken because the meat is cubed, they are more tender.
14. It’s easier to clean a grill if you do it after each use. Also oil the grill rack before each use to make cleanup easier.
15. Beef for kebabs, tenderloin is the best bet. This mild cut absorbs flavors easily and it is very tender.
16. Beef or pot roasting and braising, chuck and rump are the best cuts. Chuck has the most flavor and is the most tender.
17. Knives should always be sharp. A dull knife can slip and cut.
18. Beef for ground beef, chuck is the way to go. It has optimal amounts of fat and is tenderized mechanically by the grinding action.
19. Steam can burn just as easily as boiling liquid or a hot burner. Open everything away from you.
20. Never try to extinguish grease and electric fires with water; baking soda or a pan cover work best.
Some of you may have seen my pictures and live updates via Twitter awhile back. I was creating my new Bacon Weave Meatloaf recipe and updating everyone as it progressed. Well it turned out so darn good that I decided to share it over at Camp Chef so they could post it on their blog. Now it’s time to show you all where to find this recipe so you can try it also.
