Beef Grilling Tips:

		Always bring your beef steak, roast or burger straight from refrigerator to the grill. Place on cooking grid directly over coals. NOTE: If recipe requires seasoning, rub or herbs, do so according to the recipe.
		Grill beef at medium to medium-low temperatures ensures even cooking. If the grill temperature is too high, beef can char and become overcooked on the outside before the interior reaches the desired doneness. Charring beef is not recommended.
		Proper airflow is key to controlling the temperature of the grill. Be sure to follow your grill instructions to main the proper airflow.
		It is best to trim any excess fat from the beef steak or roast to avoid flare-ups while grilling.
		Always use a pair of long-handled tongs for turning steaks; spatulas for burgers. A fork will pierce the beef causing loss of flavorful juices.
		Always check the internal temperature of the beef steak, roast or burger with a meat thermometer. For best results, use an instant-read thermometer to determine doneness. NOTE: For beef steaks and burgers, insert the thermometer horizontally into the side (not the top) to check the internal temperature. Cook beef steaks to at least 145°F (medium rare doneness). Cook beef burgers to at least 160°F (medium doneness).
		Grill Grid Clean-up: Unless otherwise specified by your grill instructions and using EXTREME CAUTION, use a wire brush to clean the cooking grid. NOTE: The grid cleans better when it's hot.
		NEVER, NEVER LET YOUR CHILDREN COOK OR GRILL UNSUPERVISED!
