BBQ Tip

My food is burnt on the outside (when using the indirect cooking method).

This occurs when food is being cooked too close to, or directly over, the briquettes.

This occurs when food is being cooked too close to, or directly over, the Heat Beads® Briquettes.

In future, do not place food directly over, or too close to, the briquettes when cooking for a period of time. Consider using foil to protect the edges of your food.
