I love to grill-----and I'm certainly not the only one. The simplicity of lighting a fire and cooking on it, creating smoky, juicy smells and robustly flavored meat. It's a very satisfying way to prepare a meal.

If you're not an artisan of the grill just yet, I have assembled this special grilling section to help.

• Be sure to visit our Grill Safety Section first, as that is more important than anything else.
• If you aren't grill-savvy, it may benefit you to read our Outdoor Cooking Techniques.
• Food is only ONE part of a successful barbecue; you need to consider ambiance, too. So read my Outdoor Dining Ideas to help you put together an unforgettable outdoor experience.
• Last but not least, I gathered a collection of my family's favorite Grilling Recipes that stretch back to my Grandfather, Arthur and my Father, Frank. One of my own all-time favorites is Beer Can Chicken. From our backyard to yours, these are sure to please.

So what are you waiting for? Read through this section and then go outside! I hope you'll add a little thrill to your grill and enjoy the taste in good health.
