Tips For Better Barbecue and Cookouts

The following tips will help you step up your barbecue game. Turn you hamburgers and hot dogs into something memorable.

Hamburgers...Frozen Patties are easy and they taste that way too. I am in the process of Building the "Worlds Best Burger" If you buy fresh ground beef you can basically mix anything into it (tenderizer, bacon, etc) and cook them.

Think of better Cheeses, toppings, and Buns...These also affect the quality of your burger. Ban ketchup if you make a good enough burger there is no need for ketchup I think of it as insult recommend people trying without

Hot Dogs.... All Beef and again get creative with your toppings

Chicken.... There is a key ingredient that I tampered with last year.... A Dry rub.... Dry Rub, Dry Rub, Dry Rub....I cannot stress this enough Then BBQ Sauce last 10 or so minutes Sweet Baby Rays is my preferred

Steak...I Started off as a big fan of tenderloin tips.... That was until I seen Bobby Flay's Food Network's Throwdown where It was Bobby Flay's Filet Mignon vs. Chuck Steak...The Chuck won! The reason it was marinated for a few hours...This works, its cheaper, and it tastes a lot better! Rule of meat do not over cook I Let People try a Medium Rare Steak if not cooked enough and they don't feel safe I heat it up a little more, usually this is not the case

Salads.... no store bought Macaroni or Potatoes as a main side ...Look up "red potato salad" find one that looks interesting to you and own it, stop being so traditional it's boring ...Store bought can be a filler if you don't have the time for extras

Entertainment.... Play some good Music, Bob Marley always a no fail for any summer day

Desert leave that up to your Friends ask them to bring some

Have fun.... Nobody likes to see a stressed out host.
In conclusion, all entertainment channels, learn the facts on Food Network and see them both in crystal clear high-definition on Dish Network.
