Follow these simple tips to have the best & a safe barbecue weekend.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Clean<\/strong> \u2013 Wash your hands and the grill grate before you start cooking.<\/li>\n
  2. Pre heat the grill<\/strong> \u2013 Light your charcoal at least 30mins before you plan to cook, then you will have the correct glowing coal and no flames.<\/li>\n
  3. Cook to temperature<\/strong> \u2013 Check your food with a thermometer regularly, just because it looks cooked is not good enough.<\/li>\n
  4. Rest the meat<\/strong> \u2013 Remove from the heat, place on a wooden board ideally for 5-10mins dependant on the size of your meat joint.<\/li>\n
  5. Serve warm<\/strong> \u2013 The food should be kept around 60*C at the side of the bbq away from the coals and any perishables should NOT be left out for more than 2hours at room temperature.<\/li>\n
  6. Storage<\/strong> \u2013 Any leftovers should be placed in the fridge within 2hrs or within 1 hour if air temperature is above 80*C<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    Safe temperatures for cooking your barbecue.<\/h3>\n

    Remember this rhyme \u2013 \u201c75 and you\u2019re staying alive\u201d<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

    Beefburger<\/strong> cooked from room temperature rather than straight from the fridge! \u2013 They will cook more evenly and thoroughly, just make sure its 70-75*C<\/p>\n

    Steak<\/strong> cooked from room temperature rather than straight from the fridge! They will cook more evenly and thoroughly, just make sure its 55-75*C<\/p>\n

    Chicken breast<\/strong> cooked from room temperature rather than straight from the fridge! \u2013 They will cook more evenly and thoroughly, just make sure its 70-75*C<\/p>\n

    Pork Sausage<\/strong> cooked from room temperature rather than straight from the fridge! \u2013 They will cook more evenly and thoroughly, just make sure its 70-75*C<\/p>\n

    Small items like burgers and sausages can be cooked \u201cdirect\u201d over the hot coals, but larger joints of meat or whole\/half chickens will need longer so using the \u201cindirect\u201d with the coals at one side and the meat over the other side away from the heat source, but you\u2019ll need to keep a lid on the barbecue to make a simple oven, keep checking those temperatures regularly, your aiming for more than 70*C \u2013<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
