recipes for marinating chicken

To make sure your chicken is perfectly cooked, not overdone nor undercooked; try the voice alert remote thermometers for ease. These handy gadgets tell you when your chicken is almost done so you can place the sauce on at the right moment. The voice alert also enables you to enjoy time outside without having to hover over your grill.

Here is a list of quick tips:

* Check the temperature of the fire before cooking food to prevent over- or under-cooking.

* Allow food to thaw to room temperature before grilling for added tenderness and flavor, but don't let food sit un-refrigerated longer than 20 to 30 minutes to prevent bacteria growth.

* Marinating gives flavors to your meat, it is composed of seasoning, acid and oil.

* If you are using an outdoor grill, keep children away from it and keep water handy.

* Keep the meat refrigerated until you are ready to put it on the grill.

* Do not use a fork to turn the chicken as it cooks. The piercing causes the juices to escape.

* For maximum safety, thaw frozen chicken in the refrigerator.
