Here we go back with another top 5 tips to help you make the most out of your new grill and to help you get the best tasting cook every time.
1. We want to start off basic with this one. It might be basic but it is one of the most important to get a nice tasting steak. What is it? You guessed it… or did you? We need good quality meat! This can be an issue for some. We like to go to our local butcher shop and get a nice piece of steak. Some of you might be thinking that it’s way more expensive to go and get a super nice piece of meet… Well that’s not always the case. Butcher shops offer high quality cuts of meet that can be just as expensive or a little more than your average cut of meet you’d get at Walmart or safe way. All this step takes is a little preparation and research. Your local butcher will be happy to walk you through what cuts are best and will bargain with you on price
2.
At number two we have another very simple solution, and that is getting the right accessories right job. In this video we go over how much it can impact a cook. For example we show an overlay of a previous video we had done with a pizza oven. We were missing the pizza peel which as a result lead to turning a pizza into a calzone. We messed up big time and wrecked the pizza. We didn’t have the right tool for the job and as a result we lost quality in our cook. We think it is deathly important for you to have the right equipment so you can keep a consist cook through and through.
3.
Here at number 3 we take a look at something that surprisingly gets overlooked quite often, and that is not preheating your grill or not letting it get hot enough before you put your meets on. This can cause multitudes of problems which results in a low quality cook, which we hate!
4.
Number 4 we dive into what happens between preheating and cooking. What is it you may ask? You NEED to clean your grill! This step is so important to get a high quality cook. You do not want any left over gross gunk from your previous cook. This could result in nasty flavors reaching your fresh cook. We like to heat our grill to as high as possible so it can burn off a lot of that old flavor and leftover gunk. Then we take a grill grate cleaner and giver get. a nice scrape. Trust me this will help a lot
5.
Oh yeah number 5, this one is unlike the rest, this one can cost you some money but we promise it is sooooo worth it! This will guarantee the perfect cook every single time. There is no doubt in my mind! That is investing in a good meat probe! This is important in order to get a well controlled cook and get the perfect steak or any cut of meet perfectly! Sometimes people eyeball it and think they are the perfect grill master, but in honesty that just isn’t the case. The meet probe helps a ton and lets you know exactly when to pull your meet for the absolute best cook possible.
Thank you all for watching this video we hope it was informative to you and help you with some mistakes you have made in the past. We are almost certain that all of these tips will increase your success while grilling.

Being a former restaurant owner, the butter on the steak (some prefer coconut butter) is truly a steakhouse hack. Changes the steak-experience.

    Hey :-) I don't know what it's like in the US but here in Denmark more and more local butcher shops are sadly closing, and we're left with only the large malls to buy our meat. Our town centres are basically 'dying' and giving in to dentists, lawyer firms etc. In Sønderborg, where I live, we don't have a single butcher shop left. It's a town of 'only' about 30.000 people but still :-( The larger malls _do_ provide "specialty areas" where they have butchers employed, but it's just not the same. You don't have a conversation with them and it feels like they don't have the same pride in delivering good quality. I guess they lack the insentive to do their best because they are only a small peace of a huge mall.

    Good video. I think the quality of the meat is even more important on gas grills since you aren't adding a bunch of extra flavors like charcoal grilling or some sort of smoking (or reverse sear smoking etc), so your meat flavor and seasonings really come through and that better tasting meat will make a big diff. Also 100% agree with your temp probe #1. This goes for indoor cooking too. Get a good quality temp probe/therm and when you cook it to the right temp not only is it safe but comes out so much better.

    we found a restaurant depot supply outlet near us. In order to shop there you need to have a business ID but it does not need to be food related business. We buy the same meats that all the local restaurants buy. Nothing is precut so most pieces are in the 10 to 30 pound range and you need to trim it and cut it yourself but the quality is excellent and the price is about half what you would pay in a grocery chain for lower quality stuff

    @@Maxwell1989 Yes, that may be a difference. My local grocery butcher does get local meat as well, but I don't think that is the real difference. The real difference is that you often can get different grades of meat and can order diffrerent cuts and grades than you can't get at the grocery store. For example, when I want to do briscuit, I go to a butcher becaus he is willing to order one in for me specifically in the grade I want. However, that is NOT a processing difference and is NOT a reason to avoid the grocery store butcher if they have good quality meat in the cuts you like under the glass. My question originally had to do with his implication that there is something different about the two with respect to the processing of the meat and I suspect it's patently wrong when comparing equal products (basic steaks of the same grade, etc.).

    Bro. This video was not helpful. Walk the customers thru the manual getting started section. Season the grill. Develop start process. Develop after use process. Quality meats is an insult. Where you get the meat is not an indication of quality. The processing of the meat does what to the meat? The meat is treated to kill bacteria. Wash the meat before cooking and cook to certain temperature on the package. Grills have been around so long they only differ by cabinet. They internals are the same. Paying $3000 for s grill it should come with all accessory's for a good cook. 🤔

    Gas grills can work quite well. I own a Weber Performer and I always use hardwood charcoal...tough to beat that flavor, and it does provide some direct heat to help keep the meat juicy. We recently bought a Napoleon Prestige 500 with the infrared burner...the steaks cooked on this grill have been juicier than what we can achieve on the Weber Performer, but without the woodsy flavor that you get with hardwood charcoal. Using the smoker box on the Napoleon helps a bit, but the flavor is still a bit behind what we achieve on the Weber.
