Meat. Any kind of meat.

Here are my tips for grilling in order of importance:

1. Temperature control. Nothing will help you more than knowing how to build and maintain a coal fire and the different temperature zones on you grill(s). Get yourself a grill thermometer so you know. Shoot for 350-400 degrees; that's perfect for most of your grilling needs. For 'low and slow BBQ it's more like 225.

2. Just like Mom says "Don't play with your food". Once you set something on the grill it should stay there, untouched, for at least half the total cooking time (or one-quarter the cooking time if you like pretty diamond marks on your steaks like I do). The only time you need to move you meat is when you are turning it or flipping it (if you have properly applied your knowledge of tip one).

3. For the love of God PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't press down on the meat with a turner or other utensil to make it 'cook faster'. Besides forcing out all the juicy goodness it's also going to take LONGER to cook because the juice is a better conductor of heat than the meat so the juice essentially steams the meat from the inside which equals faster, more evenly cooked meat.


Here's me cooking a one pound ribeye medium rare.

Place your meat in a container on counter to temper, probably 15-30 minutes.
Get the grill and hot and clean (350 degrees)
Lube the grill with non-stick spray carefully! You can also wipe it down with a clean towel dipped in vegetable oil, again, carefully!
Liberally season the steak with sea salt and ground pepper.
Smack the steak down on your grill and forget about for three minutes.
Turn steak 90 degrees and forget about it for another three minutes.
Flip steak - three minutes
Turn 90 degrees - three minutes

Remove steak, place on a warm plate, tent with foil, and allow to rest for about 10 minutes.
Add a slice of your favorite homemade herbed-butter on top and enjoy!

The list for me grilling would constitute anything I can get on the grill.

Steak, Pork, Fish Shellfish, Veggies and yes even fruit.

Favorite things
Citrus Chicken, Barbeque Chicken or Pork, Steak with Seasoning Salt and Fresh Cracked Pepper, Shrimp and Mussels on a Skewer with a bunch of veggies, lastly Salmon with a cooked on a piece of Tin foil with a Fresh Lemon and Dill Marinade.

If I can cook outside I will.

Citrus Chicken is as follows:
1/4 to 1/3 veggie Oil
1 Orange, Lime, and a Lemon
Zest all the Citrus pieces
Juice all the Citrus
Add Some Kosher Salt or Sea Salt
Cayenne Pepper
Mix everything together
Then Marinate the chicken for 15 minutes to an hour cook it on the grill.

Salmon is as Follows:
Take a piece of Tin Foil fold the sides up making like a box with no top.
Put a few pieces of butter on the foil
Take Fresh Dill and break it up/Roll it in your fingers (Just rough it up some)
Juice a Lemon
add the Dill to the Juice stir it up.
Lay your fish on a plate skin side down. ( I like the skin on)
Pour the 1/2 the Dill and Juice mixture on the fish and let it rest
while you put the Tin foil on the Grill and melt the Butter
Once the Butter is melted put the fish on the tin Foil and let it cook.
Check it and flip it over and pour the rest of the Mixture into your tin foil tray.


Sorry I can't remember the exact timeing of the cooking

Steak.

Get the grill super hot, drop it on and season for 4 minutes. Flip and haul it off in another four minutes.

Enjoy.

Ribs

preheat oven to 300

make a foil pan

dry rub the ribs with: Garlic powder, sea salt, fresh gorund pepper, smoked paprika, finely mince a small onion,2 rosemary sprigs stripped, and 3 cloves of garlic mash the garlic onion and the dry herbs all together so its pasty like, smear that all over the ribs

wrap in the foil and either cook over bbq for 3 hours over low heat or in oven (lower temp to 275 when you put the ribs in)

CAREFULLY open the foil save all the juices that will have accumulated.

pour the juice into a small sauce pan mix with your fav BBQ sause heat until it starts to boil then remove and let set a few mins.

throw the ribs on a hot grill let them get smoking hot turn and baste with sause, turn again when the bottom side is hot and baste that side. cook until sause is carmelized and well you know looks a bit charred.

Grilled onions (really good with a fat steak)


peel and then carefully hollow out the center of the onion pack the inside with real butter. wrap with foil grill until soft ( its amazing how good these taste and yes you can even use an "old yellow onion")

Fresh trout

pack the inside with the following

chopped onion a tiny bit of dill, zest of a lemon, and then slice the lemon thin and place that inside as well.

oil the grill

cook on each side around 3 mins it does not take long of course this time will depend on how big your trout are.

I have tried at one time or another just about anything on my grill. Like has been said already temp control, leaving the food alone are teh keys.

If you are a serious griller/smoker you should invest in on of these

Big Green Egg they are worth every penny,

I prefer a Hasty Bake over a Big Green Egg but Big Green Eggs are nice

another secret to Ribs - when you put them in the oven, wrap them in heavy duty saran wrap before wrapping in aluminum foil
