A variety of meats and side dishes are used when barbecuing. Traditionally, families cook pork, beef, and fish on their grills. When visiting your local grocery store, look for meats that are specifically cut and packaged for barbecuing. If you do not find pre packaged meats, then chances are spices, marinate, and kits for grilling are somewhere nearby.
Traditional side dishes include potato salad, beans, and coleslaw. These sides work well with the variety of meats available and are easy to prepare and store until it is time to eat. Your traditional condiment bar should include pickles, relish, and onions.
Different types of grills will present different types of flavors. Charcoal and smoker grills present a natural “smoked” flavor which is one of the most known tastes of barbecuing. Smokers even allow you to control slight changes in the favor of the meat by using different types of woods.
