que: I will assume you are saying that Bar-b-que and grilling are interchangeable. Technically Bar-b-que has a specific meaning. A true Bar-b-que enthusiast would shudder at the thought of grilling! Egad sir! I will further assume you are talking about the main course or the meat. Anywho, in my opinion successful grilling requires a good marinade. Learning to marinade well will spice up your meals, add variety and also make a less expensive cut of meat taste yummier. And why not keep it simple? Who needs stress over the holiday weekend. Sure you can go buy a marinade, but why not learn the simplest of marinades, experiment and learn something about cooking/grilling. I know this is somewhat contradictory but your taste bud's will thank you. Chicken and beef. Simple marinade 1/4 olive oil, 1/4 soy sauce 1/4 white cooking wine 1/4 water Pork 1/2 olive oil 1/2 balsamic vinegar. Learn what herbs and spices go well with your meats. Garlic and onion goes well with just about anything. Your milder herbs like sage and paprika goes well with chicken, turkey or fish but don't overwhelm them with a strong marinade. Thyme goes well with pork. Steak will welcome your stronger, spicier, marinades and herbs like dried red and green peppers, sliced mushroom, mesquite etc. A few final tips. Don't throw a big slab of meat on the grill and expect your marinade flavors to penetrate much of the meat. Cut your meat into smaller pieces allowing the marinade to soak in. As the meat sits on the grill brush with your marinade, turn often. Good luck!|||slow smoke meat at 200*f using dry seasoned hardwood for several hours until tender.
