Bbq Beef Can Be Enjoyed All Year Long

By:


Beef and your barbeque go together when it comes to summer grilling time. Whether you are grilling burgers, steaks or dogs, there is nothing like the taste of barbecue beef and the texture can compare to nothing else, barbequed or not.

Even when it is the middle of the winter you can still satisfy your need for barbequed beef when the urge takes you. You will find many recipes that are available on the internet and in bookstores that show you to cook with a slow cooker that will have the same lovely flavors as if you had cooked your beef on an outdoor grill.

A simple but effective way of beating the bbq beef blues during winter is the good old beef dog. Try this recipe to add some summer taste.

Take the beef dogs and slice them the long way. Slice about half way through and fill them with thinly sliced cheese. You can also fill them with minced onion, however most children do not like the taste of onions. Wrap each dog with a strip of bacon. You can either put them on the grill or under the broiler in the oven. The dog is done when the cheese oozes out of the dog. Place them on a bun and you have a gourmet treat that is sure to please even the pickiest eater.

There are certain protocols that you must use when you are barbequing raw meat. Every year, thousands of people succumb to illnesses that come from bacteria on raw meat. It is very important that you follow the guidelines of grilling meat to avoid these illnesses.

A common mistake is to put the sauce on raw meat. Not only will this impare the flavor because the sauce will seal the meat, keeping out the bbq flavor, but it will also pass any bacteria from meat to meat as it is carried on your sauce brush.

Some long time grillers and many competition grillers put their dry rub onto the meat before grilling as they argue it gives the best flavor while others will advocate using liquid smoke for best results. Yet others will say use salt, celery, onion and countless other methods. Try your own ideas and see what works for you as the taste is in the taster. What may be a great taste for one person might not work for another.

Another tip is to heat your sauce while your meat is cooking and then once the beef has cooked for a while getting all the bbq flavor, add the sauce. This also shortens the cooking time and keeps the meat nice and tender.

Another tip for your bbq beef is to allow it to stand for a while to allow it to finish cooking, about 15 minutes is enough. This will seal in the juices and make cutting the beef much easier.
