Read for freeYou’ll notice 2 styles of grills. One is a cast-iron or plate grill with spaces, and the difference is bars that hold the food directly over the open flame.
The open sort is what you see on most barbeque grills, which is the othertype. Solid grills have continuous rows of ridges that transfer the warmth into the food, which permit the oil and grease to run down in between them.
Grilled food has those delicious, very little grill marks from the ridges or bars. The extreme heat browns or blackens the food wherever it contacts the metal.
The browning is named the Maillard reaction, caused by the sugars caramelizing from the warmth.
Grills offer a great deal of warmth and smoke. They’re solely used outdoors or beneath a poster mechanical system (otherwise known as a chimney) that pulls the smoke outside.
Smokers cook at temperatures lower than barbeque grills or griddles. However, the grates are open, permitting the smoke to flow into and, therefore, the juices to drip from the meat.
