• GRILLING TIPS
• We like to cut our veggies on the larger side for grilling so they don't burn quickly. We turn them a few times to keep the insides tender while the outside takes on that ideal smoky char. It's important to remember that your meat and veggies continue to cook after you've pulled them off the grill, so be sure to let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving and take care to remove the vegetables before they overcook.
