A charcoal grill infuses a smoky flavour on a steak and cooks it evenly on all sides. Not to mention, cooking with charcoal is an inexpensive way of barbecuing meat at home.<\/p>\n

To get a perfectly cooked steak, you have to be quite careful while barbecuing meat. Cooking over high heat for long periods can dry off the steak.<\/p>\n

In this post, you will learn how to bbq on a charcoal grill<\/a> using both direct and indirect heat. We will also give you some tips on barbecuing different types of food as well as show you the most effective method of cooking steak.<\/p>\n

Let’s take a look at the different steps you need to follow while barbecuing on a grill.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Light the Barbecue Grill<\/h2>\n

For starters, you have to light your charcoal barbecue grill. You can use a chimney starter or an electric starter to start a fire.<\/p>\n

While a lighter fluid might be efficient in lighting a barbecue grill, it might leave some\u00a0chemical residues<\/strong>\u00a0that may affect the taste of your food. You have to be quite careful while choosing a lighter fluid. You should opt for one that burns with a\u00a0clean flame<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If you want to light charcoal with a chimney starter, start by putting some barbecue coals in the chimney starter. After that, use a newspaper to light a fire at the bottom part of the charcoal chimney. The flames should ignite the briquettes at the bottom part of the starter.<\/p>\n
