The barbecue season arises every year in the spring, and this year - all the more so: the removal of the closures and the abolition of (almost) all the restrictions of the corona, caused the fans to wave a special joy.

Anyone who thinks this is a seasonal journalistic whim, should check the data on meat consumption in Israel: in the week of Independence Day we consume 3 times more meat than in an average week!



While the meat market does not present significant innovations: a chicken is a chicken and an entrecote is an entrecote, the cut of roasting facilities, grills or barbecues registers quite a few innovations in two different trends: health and specialization.



The specialization trend of amateur cooks who have recently adopted advanced cooking methods and are exposed to professional equipment, brings with it a variety of solutions that take the fluttering experience several levels forward, while the health trend dictates less soot, less fat and less environmental pollution.

Painless treatment

Coal or gas?

There are still two main types of grills: charcoal grills and gas grills, and each has its pros and cons.

(Spoiler: Later we will also unveil more models with innovations such as grilling with infrared technology and also a hybrid model that allows the use of gas or charcoal in one product).



Gas grill

: Its advantages are clear, it is convenient to operate, clean, ignite and control the heat comfortably and quickly.

Its main disadvantage is that the use of gas does not give the same result in terms of flavors as the aroma of the coals, and of course: a dedicated connection to the gas is needed.

Unlike a charcoal grill that can be placed in any corner, its mobility is limited, according to the length of the gas pipe that was installed in the first place.



The charcoal grill

: its disadvantage in its complex operation, you need to know when to place the meat, as too high a heat may dry out and even burn the meal.

Its cleaning and maintenance are more cumbersome, but according to the taste of most Israeli consumers, the result we will get will be tastier.

The experts analyze

Kobi Abed, chef and owner of Mythos Meatos and with a resume of about 30 years in the meat restaurant industry, emphasizes the benefits between a gas grill and a charcoal grill: The



benefits of a gas grill: "The grill heat works throughout the roasting at a high and uniform temperature for large cuts, such as steak on bone And steaks of various sizes, can maintain juiciness so that the meat juices are kept inside the slice itself, which is called "closing the slice" in the professional language.



The benefits of charcoal grilling: "There is no alternative to the aroma produced by charcoal grilling, especially in grilling meat such as chicken, kebab, and parts of the face that are supposed to have a short grilling and at a not very high temperature" Abed concludes: "Grilling charcoal grilled meat ".



Avi Tzedaka, Sales Manager at Net Net: "Unlike last year, when we were closed on Independence Day and there was a sharp increase in sales of electric grills for indoor use, this year we feel the return to routine. Gas grill sales are rising sharply ahead of Independence Day. The meat smokers. "

Red rises

Infrared technology: An


innovation in the field of gas-based grills is a combination of infrared technology that allows grilling outside even in winter, since it is an energy that is not affected by low temperatures.

A BBQ with an infrared burner heats up faster and reaches higher temperatures.



A grill model that works with infrared technology is the Rogue SE 425 from the Canadian grill brand Napoleon, which has two infrared burners, one senior side that reaches 900 degrees and one of these, which joins three stainless steel burners that produce a heat intensity of 14,000 BTU each, which improves quality Grilling, shortens preparation times and allows grilling and burning of food even on a rotating skewer.

Tips for the beginner mangalist:

In order to choose the exact grill for us, one must first think about the size that will fit the amount of meat and the number of diners.

If the number of diners is large, it is important to choose a grill with a wide and comfortable grilling surface, so that all guests can enjoy hot meat directly from the grill to the plate and not in "drips".



It is advisable not to use a charcoal lighter.

The fuel inside the charcoal lighters sticks to the charcoal and gives a noticeable taste to the meat.

We will light the charcoal grill with paper or cardboard, and there is another option called "charcoal chimney".



Using a large can with holes in the bottom, place the can full of charcoal on a pile of paper, and when we light the paper, the fire will climb into the charcoal to suck up oxygen, which will ignite the charcoal in a short time.

The coals should be lit for at least 40 minutes, until a white layer forms on them, inside which the charcoal can be seen, this stage is called "whispering coals".



Place the net in the early stages of charcoal lighting.

The net should be warm when the chunks are placed on it.



Do yourself and your fingers a huge favor, and use long, not short forceps.

The convenience of long tongs will make it easier for you to burn the meat from the hot net.



There are several types and each has a different purpose.

Yakitori skewers are made of wood or bamboo, and are designed for grilling vegetables or entrees.

Wooden skewers are designed for grilling chunks that do not require much time on the grill, stainless steel skewers are designed for long grilling of chunks that require longer grilling and a rotating skewer is designed for grilling the meat evenly on all sides.
