Monday's BBQ Fact or Fallacy
Burning charcoal is more eco-friendly compared to propane gas.
Fallacy - Charcoal, propane gas and hardwood briquettes are not 100% environmentally friendly methods of grilling. Charcoal briquettes are made from scrap wood and sawdust and are a renewable resource. However, they release twice as much carbon into the air as gas grills. Propane burns cleanly, but it is a nonrenewable resource. Hardwood briquettes burn more cleanly than the pressed briquettes but contribute to deforestation.

Monday's BBQ Fact or Fallacy
Searing adds flavor.
Fact - This is the real reason to sear meats, despite the loss of juices. Searing meats initiates a reaction that creates intense flavor complexities. This flavor-inducing reaction only occurs between 300˚ F anf 500˚ F, so temperatures hotter than 500˚ F will char meats without adding flavor.
