Charcoal Grill - Tips & Tricks?

Post by SVTRonDogg »

Growing up we always had propane or gas grills at home. After a few trips to my buddy's place up North I've been lusting after charcoal grilling.

The fiance just picked me up a Weber Kettle Grill, just what I've been wanting to play with. Chimney starter included. About to grab some coals and get a cookin.

Any tips and or easy recipes to check out on these things? Also looking to grab a bag of this: http://www.amazon.com/Fogo-Carbon-Lena- ... on+de+lena

Two things that always work for me in my Weber

1. A good dry rub
2. Smoke chips soaked in water over night

You can always brine the meat too before applying the dry rub

I bank the coals against one side of the kettle, place the smoke chips in an aluminum pan over the coals

The meat (steak sometimes, more often a rib roast) goes on the grill on the side opposite the smoke chips and heat. Low and slow
