12. 14d 21 Cooking One of the keys to extending your range of grilling capabilities is a fundamental understanding of the two common methods of cooking Direct and Indirect cooking In the Direct cooking method food is placed directly above the heat source This method is used in searing for example where you require high and immediate heat to quickly brown the outside layer of meats thereby sealing in their juices to enhance flavor On the grill this is accomplished using one or more of your main burners and placing the food on the porcelain cooking grids directly over the burners This may be done with the grill hood either open or closed In the Indirect cooking method food is placed on the grill offset from the heat source With the grill lid closed reflected heat surrounds the food cooking it more evenly and gently This approximates the action of a convection oven where heat is circulated by the use of a fan to achieve a similar result This method is perfect for cooking roasts of any kind but is also useful whenever you want to slow cook or bake a wide variety of foods Indirect cooking on your grill is accomplished using one of the main burners and placing the food on the porcelain cooking grid above the opposite burner or on the warming rack burner The grill hood should always be closed when employing the indirect cooking method PREPARING FOOD FOR THE GRILL Always observe safe food handling and safe food preparation practices when usi
