Nothing says “grilling” like summer holidays and events, as well as more help cooking from the men of the family for the women! Cooking on a gas grill is quick and simple, but it can also be a lot of fun. It is fast and easy to start one, and there is not a lot to the cleanup process when the cooking is all done. Charcoal grills might be known for the wonderful smoky flavor it leaves the food after grilling, but there is something to be said about food that can be cooked fast and more convenient. There are certain foods that are especially great when cooked on a gas grill.
Steak
While some people prefer a charcoal grill when it comes to cooking steaks because of the smoky flavor, a gas grill can actually do the job faster and with a better precision. The gas grill gets hotter than a charcoal grill, and this can cook the steaks to a better degree of accuracy. Whether someone wants medium rare, or well done, the gas grill can cook a steak to perfection.
Corn-On-The-Cob
When rolled up in aluminum foil, corn-on-the-cob is great when cooked on a gas grill. They cook very evenly and leave a great flavor all over and throughout the corn. They cook in just minutes on this kind of grill because of the high temperature, so people can actually just throw it on the grill at the very last-minute and still enjoy corn with their meal.
Potatoes
Boiling potatoes on the stove can take forever and still not come out completely cooked all the way through. However, cooking potatoes wrapped in aluminum foil on the gas grill can cook the potatoes all the way through in just minutes without even adding water. The water used to boil potatoes on the stove can actually take away some of the flavor in potatoes, but when wrapped in aluminum foil and grilled, there is no water needed and butter as well as spices can be added to the cooking instead.
Kabobs
It doesn’t matter what kind of meat or vegetable is being cooked on a kabob, the gas grill can be used to cook them to perfection. Since the temperature on this kind of grill is so high, the meat will cook fast enough for the vegetables not to burn while the meat is cooking. That way everything is cooked evenly and will taste great.
Chicken
Chicken is perfect to cook on a gas grill. The temperature can be changed to ensure a perfect cooked chicken. Using the highest heat on the grill when first placing the chicken on it for a few minutes, then turning the temperature down can create a perfect sear and make the inside of the chicken have a wonderful caramelized taste.
