Be the master of your grill
To ensure San Diegans are making the most of their Nation Barbecue Month, pitmaster Ryan Sharpe has offered up a hot tip for those looking to take on the power of the grill at home:
“Using charcoal alone will add great flavor to your food, however using different herb mops, sprays and dry rubs can also impart great flavor to each cook, giving you the flexibility to change the flavor profile of each type of cuisine you are cooking. Having a spray bottle filled with some sort of flavored liquid (ex. apple cider vinegar or Worcestershire sauce) is a great way to add flavor and color to your meat. I recommend using these after the “crust” is formed. Meat forms a better crust when it is dry.” – Ryan Sharpe.
Thanks for the tips, Ryan!
Fire up those grills…and stay healthy, San Diego!
