Healthy BBQ: Grilling Meat at High Temps

It’s barbecue duration again, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I love grilling, but it’s vital to keep food safety in intellect when firing up the grill. I always try to marinate the meat before cooking, in hopes of reducing the production of carcinogens, but the high heat can additionally produce chemicals with cancer-causing properties. that does not mean you should skip the grill that weekend (or all Summer); just follow these simple tips from the Harvard Health Letter for keeping grilling safe:

  • Cook smaller pieces: They cook more quickly and at lower temperatures.
  • Choose leaner meat: Less fat should reduce flames and therefore smoke.
  • Precook in the microwave: Doing so
    for two minutes may decrease heterocyclic amines by 90 percent, according to some research.
  • Flip frequently: That way, neither side has instance to absorb or lose too much heat.
