Unersaettliche meat desire

Here times a long overdue guidance , over the high art of grilling . Naturally we can begin to cut the topic, because of its complexity, here only nevertheless want we to try at least its fundamentals by an example to state.

In contrast to the German-speaking countries in Uruguay not with coal , but with wood one grills. Over forwards and disadvantages can be naturally argued. Suitable coal e.g. one gets nearly everywhere in practical bags, also the preparation is very simple, particularly since the fire place is simultaneous also the grill place. Compact grill building method makes possible, and requires as well as no experience. Coal igniting, wait to the glow grey ist(im most favorable case), grill property present, again wait, until everything is finished. Meal.

That is already somewhat more complex with wood. Geschmacklich for it however completely different world. Naturally I eat also gladly times a charcoal bratwurst, on a side half angebrannt, with (or 2) a koestlichen cool blond one, at the excavator lake, with good friends... Power fun no question.

Who however gladly more frequently grills and geschmacklich further to come would like should times the following out try.

The grill

There are here naturally innumerable variants and materials for the grill. The principle is however always similar. A fire place of that the glow to down-fall can (lattices or similarly) and a grill rust, for the grill property under which one the fallen through glow push can. Here only times a few examples.

This photo shows a very typical grill, which one finds here at nearly each house. On the right of the fire place , on the left of the grill rust , beside it still another practical work surface , chimney drauf, finished.

So geht's also. Tastes exactly the same, and is naturally somewhat simpler to transport. More complicated by the handling somewhat, because e.g. the glow under the fire must be rausgefummelt, without destroying the fire each time thereby. In addition the meal admission of the wind direction must be adapted.

Photo probably shows "Mercado del Puerto" the market hall of Montevideo, and thus the most well-known steak steakschmiede of the world

Fires make

That it lies cannot I not say, but a fire belongs to make, somehow to the best things of the world. Only times one must fiddle a little, in order to organize the fuel material to ignite and a small Feuerchen. Then one must receive and become slowly larger let it alive, in order to receive later good glow. And if it burns correctly then, one must clean-look the whole time. It calmed down, warms (if in Uruguay a role plays) and makes fun simple.

The most important for a good fire is really good and dry wood !. They should not use resinous woods or garden remainders (bushes etc.). Wood is not equal to wood!!! Some woods have e.g. a good fire, the glow are then however only conditionally to crickets suitable. Very well suitable (in Germany) beech is . Well and has also still another glow high-energy burns . (you cannot a birke be turned by their local Holzdealer!)

Here still a few tips for good success.

To the fire begin you put on best with completely small wood and put then ever more largely becoming pieces above drauf.

Fire needs air and material. I.e. it must be stacked airily, but not too airily. If a flame between two holzstuecken "through" does not burn is too close you correctly. If a flame on its way does not have upward itself by the wood "wriggling through", but simply after "above" burns, are too large the distances.

With different reflectors (here in the photo simply corrugated sheet) one can "stop" the temperature still more finely. Is however rather which for progressing and also only with special kinds of meat usefully.

Fire burns upward. Naturally somewhat if new is for nobody, has however with crickets extensive consequences. So you can adjust completely consciously the burn-off speed by the fact that you stack e.g. more steeply or flatter.

The Glutstueckgroesse is also directproportionally size dependent apart from the wood on the size of the used Brennmateriales.

Present

If the fire making successfully ran, and glow accumulated already properly unterm fire basket, can begin you the glow under the grill rust to push. In addition you can use all possible. (not inflammable) I like shovel and Schuerhaken. They can adjust now either by that more highly or low places of the grill rust or by using more glow the temperature. There only trying helps. Now you can present their grill property. Still with the grill property to enter more exactly over now each framework would blow up here. Possibly there later times an extra article is added.

Everyone may be meat or vegetable , or whatever, differently. Some may like it very by some it very English. If all want to eat at the same time, and not coincidentally all, which want their meat English it also coldly would like, should inquire you as Asador (grill master) before. The most important however with crickets are TIME and peace. Peace and time. Time and peace. There is nothing worse than a quengelnde people horde/hurdle, which waits hungry for its meat. The result of it is always a controversy or a angebranntes grill property, because the Asador did not bear it any longer, and the grill temperature by more glow placed in such a way and a deep rust "highly", which is cold everything outside black and inside. Such a thing does not have to be. Begin early. There is nearly none too early. 1-2 hours for the glow preparation and still times about 1 hour to crickets. Rather more. A complete cow takes about 7 hours . A further trick are "Previews" like e.g.. grilled bread with herb butter or whatever, one can offer well before and satisfies the hunger of the Meute until the meat is finished. Still which does not give it in own thing, more beautiful Bierchen, than the first beer of the daily, if all are busy with something still and one put on the straight fire. Only you, your Feuerchen and a ice-cold flaeschchen . (I interrupt now the letter until tomorrow and a pair of friends will call and my first fire oeffnen..aeh...) that one should think still in any case is a sharp large knife, a meat fork (as long, there as possible it over the glow is occasionally very hot). And a bucket, in order to be able to remove bones and glow.

So, I hope that possibly someone can begin something with this incomplete guidance. Me much would make happy. Desires good to succeed go now to the beach.

Of course I would be pleased much, if someone would try crickets out with fire now. If then still someone sends a photo of the first attempt to me, I would burst nearly before luck.

Only courage must one stop out times try.
