Difference Between Barbecue and Grilling

Recommended Posts

People often use the term barbecue when referring to foods that are grilled, but barbecuing and grilling are two completely different processes.

 

Barbecuing

 

    * Barbecuing refers to foods that are cooked with a long, slow process using indirect, low-heat generated by smoldering logs or wood chips that smoke-cook the food.

    * The fuel and heat source are separate from the cooking chamber, but the cooking chamber contains enough heat to properly cook the food over a long period of time.

    * The cooking chamber fills with smoke, giving the food its characteristic smoked flavor, which varies depending on the type of wood that is used for the fuel.

    * The best temperature for barbecuing is between 200°F and 300°F. If the temperature rises above 300°F, it is considered grilling.

 

Grilling

 

    * Grilling refers to foods that are cooked quickly and directly over high heat.

    * Grilling temperatures typically reach 500°F or more, but any temperature above 300°F is considered a grilling temperature.

    * The high heat of grilling sears the surface of meat, creating a flavorful browned crust.
