GRILLING GURU STEVEN RAICHLEN SHARES SECRETS OF GREAT BARBECUE

STEVEN RAICHLEN DEMOS HOW TO HAVE

PERFECTLY GRILLED FOOD EVERYTIME YOU HIT THE GRILL.

Summer’s here and 90% of the country is grilling according to a new survey--in fact, 56% are cooking out at least one time or more per week. You’d think that such “Frequent Grillers” would be very confident when it comes to BBQ technique. Not so—86% admit to being so worried about burning the meat that they move it constantly and commit other BBQ faux-pas. There is a solution to this problem—and award-winning author, journalist, teacher and host of the popular PBS series, “Barbecue University with Steven Raichlen”, has it.  Steven will give us quick and easy tips on grilling a complete meal, including dessert.  He’ll show us:

·       How to cook an entire meal on the grill from brats and side dishes to a tasty dessert.

·       How to insure your grilled meats are perfect every time.

·       How you can grill at 3 different temperatures at once, so you can cook foods that require different cooking temperatures all together.

·       The inexpensive  grill-top “hot-tub”--- perfect for adding extra flavor to meats, fish et al 

·       Important safety do’s and don’ts for cooking meats and grilling in general.

Grilling expert extraordinaire  and Bon Appetit’s Cooking Teacher of the Year, Steven Raichlen probably knows more about grilling than just about anyone!  A former Fulbright scholar, Steven actually got a Watson Fellowship to study medieval cooking where all food was grilled over an open flame!  Next he took a 200,000 mile odyssey around the world, studying global grilling which resulted in his first book, the award-winning The Barbecue Bible.  His 25 books have been translated into 10 different languages and released worldwide.  As host of the popular PBS series, Barbecue University with Steven Raichlen, he has taught the art of the grill to millions of regular viewers and celebrities including Howard Stern, who hailed him as the “Michael Jordan of Barbecue,” and Oprah who called him the “Gladiator of Grilling”.  He is also the founder and dean of Barbecue University at the Greenbriar, which The Food Network deemed the “Best BBQ Experience in the U.S.”
