Nashville is known for many greats things as in great music and great BBQ. As the season turns from spring to summer, the backyard BBQs are getting fired up all over the city. This is when amateur chefs can put their grilling skills to the test for all those lucky tasters. If you’re serious about your BBQ then you need to be serious about the kind of grill you’re going to be using. That old one just might not cut it anymore.
As with what you’ll be cooking, your grill comes down to a matter of personal tastes. How often will you be using the grill? If you’re just a weekend cooker then you might have the time to wait for charcoals to be fired up. However, if you want to take advantage of a quick grill then going with propane is the best way to go. Don’t think you’ll be sacrificing flavor with propane. You’ll still have the option to add in smoke flavors with a propane grill by adding your woodchips of choice.
Your grill will become your cooking command station. This means you don’t have to own the “biggest boy” on the block. Get a grill you can easily manage both with the cooking and the cleaning. The real competition should be in how your ribs are going to taste and not if you’ve got the most expensive grill!
You might think that the more BTUs you get the better off you’ll be. That’s not always the case. BTU measurement is based on the size of the burner so unless you’re comparing the exact same size grill counting your BTUs won’t really matter. What you really want to look for is even distribution of flame and heat. That’s going to deliver consistent grilling.
You’ll find that most grills are made from stainless steel. You can’t beat high quality stainless steel for durability and ease of cleaning. It’s also going to cost more but that’s a benefit you can count on down the road. A simple test: Toss a magnet onto the grill. If it sticks, it’s cheap stainless steel. Move onto the next model!
Buying a propane grill means you’ll have to occasionally swap out the tanks for more fuel. You’ll find that many gas stations and convenient stores are stocking propane tanks. Shop around. If you can find an actual propane refueling station then you’ll be cutting out the middle man and saving money.
Before you can start your grilling season you’ll have to get rid of the rust bucket sitting in your backyard. The best way to handle that chore is by hiring your Nashville Junk Hauling team – Junk King – who will be up for the job. They’ll be able to load up your old grill on their truck along with any other junk items you finally want to get rid of. Focus on your marinade and rubs and let the junk haulers handle the junk!
