Barbecue Grilling
Barbecue—It Ain’t Grilling
The summer is a great time for barbecuing and grilling. Often people will use the terms barbecue and grill interchangeably. But the fact is that one has very little to do with the other. Let’s take a look at each to see how you can best utilize each type of cooking method.
Barbecue Vs. Grilling
Here’s the difference between barbecuing and grilling. When you barbecue foods you cook them over an indirect heat source and at a low temperature. Additionally, barbecuing tends to involve using smoke generated from the burning of certain types of wood, such as mesquite, to add flavor to the food. Barbecuing takes hours—often four to eight. The beauty of this method is it slowly infuses flavor and it makes meats and poultry extremely tender. Often rubs are used to flavor meats prior to putting them on the BBQ.
