It’s officially grilling season, and at my house we’ll definitely be using the warmer weather as an excuse to cook outside whenever we can.
I especially love grilling season because my husband usually takes care of the main dish, which means I have more time to try new side dish and dessert recipes!
Not to mention, I never feel like turning on my oven when it’s hot outside, and cooking on the grill is always the answer.
There’s almost nothing you can make on the grill–including dessert, and this recipe collection includes just about everything, including plenty of ideas for our family’s favorite grilled dinner, kabobs!
But first, here are a few tips for using your outdoor grill.
TIPS FOR GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR GRILL
- Always preheat your grill. This is especially important when cooking meat. The grates should be hot enough to sear the meat and lock in the juices. It takes 10-15 minutes to preheat most grills.
- Before cooking, turn on all the burners for a few minutes to make sure everything is working, and there are no leaks.
- Use an instant-read thermometer to make sure food is cooked to a safe internal temperature.
- Clean your grill after each use–food will taste better and you’ll have less flare-ups while cooking.
