Perk up your backyard cookout with grilling favorites from around the world.

Grilling is the quick cooking of meat, fish or vegetables over intense heat. The source of the heat can be burning wood, simmering coals, a gas flame, or an electric heating element. A related method is broiling, but with broiling the heat source comes from the top instead of the bottom.

Adding Flavor

Items to be grilled can be flavored in a marinade or seasoned with a rub. They can be basted while cooking with any variety of flavorful sauces, or topped with a flavored butter before serving.

Give a boost of flavor to whatever you grill:
