2, Not Preheating the cooking grate Before Cooking

One of the biggest grilling mistakes is not preheating the cooking grate, Many people think that once their grill reaches high heat, it's ready to start cooking. You should allow the grill to preheat longer to heat the cooking grate. The grill may generate a lot of heat, but the cooking grate is still relatively cool. This means that your food does not receive heat directly from the cooking grate. Your food will stick to the metal. When this happens, your food will tear and mince as you flip or remove the meat from the cooking grate.

The best thing to do is cover the grill and let it preheat for at least 10 minutes to transfer heat to the grate. Some say it takes longer to warm up, maybe even 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the grill. Whether you choose to preheat the grill for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, or 30 minutes, this will reduce the chance of food sticking to the cooking grate.

3,putting on cold meat on the cooking grate

Grilling mistakes can be avoided if you understand what can ruin your grilling food. For example, if you put the meat on the grill when it's too cold, the outside will be done before the inside is done. This causes the meat to take longer to finish and increases the chance of burning the outside of the meat. When the exterior is done, you'll notice that the interior is not. Then you have no choice but to keep grilling, increasing the chances of overcooking.

The solution to this problem is to allow your meat to come to room temperature before grilling. This will make your cooking process more even and there is less chance of burning the outside of the meat before the inside is finished. You should take the meat out of the fridge and let it sit, ,for 15-20 minutes before putting it on cooking grate.

Hope you can avoid above mistake when you use lanejoy cooking grate to do the BBQ and become a amazing griller.
