Have you ever taken cooked meat off the grill, placed it on a platter or cutting board for the required resting period, then when it was time to cut it you saw a big puddle of juices under the meat? A very serious griller,
Chris at Nibble Me This suggests
Resting Grilled Meat on a Raised Rack to avoid this problem. I knew you'd be curious:@) so I gave it a try with some butterflied chicken breast...
Wow, I'd say it worked really well! If the juice isn't on the plate it's still in the chicken!
I plan to keep experimenting with different meats as I grill them.
Just wanted to share a great tip...
Have a happy day:@)
That's a good tip! Happily, my blog list is back this morning too. I felt "cut off" from the world of blogging for two days!!

Definitely a tip to remember. As much as we grill you'd think we'd have figured this out!
ReplyDeleteWhat a tip, Lynn! I always let the meat rest, but never have on a rack. I will give it a try. Thanks!
ReplyDeletedidn't know about resting the meat.
ReplyDeleteChris knows his stuff.

Hmmm....who knew? I know that you should "rest" roasts and such but never thought about grilled meats or a rack.
ReplyDeleteHubby always likes to let the meat rest when it comes off the grill. I prefer to just eat it right away since it tastes no different to me when it rests.
ReplyDeleteI love little tips, the little extras that make dinner wonderful. Thanks.

Great tip Lynn! We'll have to remember letting it rest on a rack :)
ReplyDeleteVery interesting tip! I love the juices but they are definitely better still inside the meat!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful tip, thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great tip!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWow, I will be trying this out, too!!! Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteGood tip. I usually just rest mine on a plate...and in the juice. :) I'll remember the rack next time.
ReplyDeleteFabulous tip Lynn! I can't wait to share this with my grillers!
