Tis the season for outdoor grilling adventures. Last night we over to a coworkers house for a 4th of July celebration and I saw some of the strangest grilling techniques. The first thing that really took me by surprise was this guy cleaned his grill cold. He came out of the house with an orange-scented cleaner and a roll of paper towels. Then he wiped it for a good 5 minutes until he had accumulated a rather large pile of paper towels. This I just don't understand. It's a gas grill, just clean it hot and it's ready to go... this has always been my motto.
So I let this go, even though I really wanted to ask. He put the sausages on the grill and I assumed everything was on track. He then says, "Oh I forgot the knife." And I'm thinking, WTF... a knife? He comes back and precedes to stab all the sausages four or five times. I asked, and he says "I hate flare ups." Needless to say, dinner was really dry.
Anyone else experience some crazy, possibly terrible grilling techniques?
