Grills

The challenge in grilling chicken is to make sure you grill or cook it it long enough so that the inside of the chicken is done without the outside being black or charred. But making sure you have the right grill, should be first on the list.

Gas grills are not compared to one another it is just a matter of choice, but they do seem to be in a loose order of preference. Good Housekeeping has a fairly up-to-date review of gas grills, as well.

Consumer Reports editors have tested and rated a total of 30 current grills, ranging from small portable grills, to backyard super grills. The reviewers' choice for the top gas grills is Webers. Weber grills have now been redesigned and are top rated. Cooking technology behind Weber grills is basically the same, this outdated review still has some value.

The Char-Broil gas grill is not very stylish as Weber Grills. It also made of painted steel. Kenmore grills costs far less than other grills. Kenmore gas grill had good reviews and good scores for performance, and we didn't find the same durability complaints for this grill, and it is for less expensive gas grill.

You can use grills with propane. Always open the lid before lighting a gas or charcoal. Prepare the grill (turn on a gas grill or start some charcoal briquettes burning).

You can make a grill selection based on name or looks. But I would try the less expensive ones first, just so you can get a idea as to what you want in a grill.

As far as which one cooks better, well you be the judge in your grilling chicken experience

And let your Grilling intuitions take over

always make sure that the chicken is cooked until red is gone.

Grilling Chicken Is A Very Enjoyable Experience

When I am grilling chicken, I like to keep it simple, some of the different recipes around call for some pretty extravagant means. I know there are hundreds of recipes for grilling chicken, and a few stand out more then others, like with a mango sauce, or a BBQ sauce with mustard base, you could even add a little honey in with it to sweeten it up. We all have our little favorites when grilling. I would suggest experiment but not to the point it becomes a chore instead of a delight.

Some people cook on a grill very different. Some turn it often and some turn it once. Me I like to turn my chicken about 3-4 times in a period of twenty minutes, then I move the chicken to the side and let cook for about an hour and a half on low to med heat.

Here is a nice little recipe you can mix up fast.

Marinated Chicken

Serving for 4

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves

1/4 Cup Frenches spice brown mustard

2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 Teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 1/2 Teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1/2 Teaspoon dried tarragon

Mix all the Ingredients except chicken in a bowl.

Roll chicken around in the bowl to cover ingredients well, make sure chicken is covered well.

Place chicken on platter and let sit in room temperature for about 20-30 minutes. You could let sit in refrigerator for a few hours

Grilling: Uncovered, over medium heat, turning once or twice, for 10 to 15 minutes depending on the thickness of chicken breast.

Sounds good ? You bet

So good luck in your grilling chicken adventures.
