Remember that there is only one portion of a meat or fish good for grilling. But this rule has an exception when it comes to the chateaubriand. And choose meat of high quality. Use only the prime cuts as much as possible.
It is best served right after taking it out of the grill so as not to lose the juicy flavors. It is also recommended to first preheat the food before grilling. Check the charcoals to make sure it is emitting just the right amount of heat to avoid burning or overcooking. Natural juices are lost with overcooking. The meat then ends up dry.
Avoid sticking by putting a little oil in the grill. It may be possible that you pass the meat to be grilled in the clean cooking oil. When you start cooking, use steak tongs to turn the meat.
For fishes, it must be floured, oiled and seasoned. If you are grilling both meat and fish at the same time, separate a clean area for the fish so that the flavors will not get mixed. Clean the grill to avoid burnt residue. The usual grilled foods are seasoned after being sealed.
