How to Put Out Grill Flare Ups



cooking skills 101



Grill flames can be dangerous for your food, especially when they come from fat and oil dripping from your food. This fire can ignite before your food is placed on the grill. It can also occur after it has been flipped. To control the flames on your grill, you must determine their severity. Often, the flames will be small and not affect your food at all. Two options are available if you see flare-ups: Cover the lid with aluminum foil, and then turn off the burners. Then, you can sprinkle the area around your cooking food with baking soda, sand, or salt. You can close the lid and vents after you have completed this step to keep oxygen from getting into the food. If you are still concerned, wait for 30 seconds before you attempt to control the flames.

The best way to avoid grill flames is to cover the grill, and then wait. The reason behind this is that the fire needs oxygen to survive, so cutting off the oxygen will cause it to extinguish. Cover the grill and watch for flare-ups. You can then return to normal tasks once the fire is out. After the grill flames have gone out, you can begin cooking again. If you're not careful you might cook food that's burned to the bone.

Keep your food in the "Safe Zone" to avoid flare-ups. Then, you can spray the grill's bottom with water to extinguish the flames. If you are grilling on charcoal, you may spray the bottom of the grill with water. You can dial 911 for emergency assistance if the flare up is severe enough to endanger the supply hose.


Excess fat or oil dripping is the most common reason a grill fires up. Extra fat and oil should be removed before you start cooking. You should also position your grill away from the wind to prevent flare-ups. A grill shield is a great way to protect your food, and keep them from leaked. It is important to have a shielding cover in order to control the flames.

Clean grills are key to avoiding flare-ups. Flare-ups can be caused by a dirty grill or too many drippings. While the heat produced from drippings is important, you can also avoid them by trimming excess fat from your meat. Ideally, you should always cut away the excess fat before preparing the food. You shouldn't remove all fat from meat in order to avoid it from causing problems.

How To

How to cook your steak

The type of meat you are cooking will determine the right method to use. Thicker steaks cook best at low heat. Thicker steaks require higher temperatures.

You should also ensure you don't overcook them because they'll lose flavor. You should always remove the steak from the skillet when it's done. This will prevent you from burning yourself.

Cooking time will depend on the size of your steak and the desired level of doneness. Here are some general guidelines.

Medium Rare: Cook till medium rare. This is when the internal temperature of the food reaches 145°F (63°C). This process takes between 3 - 5 minutes per side.

Medium: Cook till medium. This usually takes only 6 minutes per side.

Well Done: Cook until well done, which means the internal temps reach 180degF (82degC). This normally takes 8 to 12 minutes per side.
