Carolina Sauce Newsletter: Tips, Recipe & Coupon for National Grilling Month!

July is National Grilling Month! Here are 3 easy tips to help you get the most out of your grill:

1. Keep Grill Grates Clean. Dirty grates cause food to stick and pick up "off" flavors. Clean your grates after each use by allowing residue to "burn off" and scrubbing with a stiff wire bristle brush.

2. Re-Season Cast Iron Grill Grates. If your grill has cast-iron grates, you should have seasoned them prior to first use. After each use & cleaning, re-season by turning off the grill and applying a thin coating of solid vegetable shortening with a paper towel while the grates are warm, then closing the lid with the grates in until they're cool. Re-seasoning will keep food from sticking.

2. Remove Excess Grease from Drip Pan or Bottom Tray. Before each use, check the drip pan or bottom tray to prevent grease accumulation. Excess grease can start a grease fire.

Honey-Lime Grilled Bananas
Here's a quick & easy grilled dessert from the makers of Weber grills: Cut 4 unpeeled bananas lengthwise into halves and place skin-side down on grill grate over indirect/medium heat. Grill until skins are black, about 6 to 8 minutes. Turn bananas over and grill 2 to 3 minutes more. Arrange bananas on serving plates and drizzle with honey and fresh-squeezed lime juice (2 limes).
