Skipping the PreheatNot preheating your grill can lead to uneven cooking and sticking. Always preheat for 15-20 minutes.
Overcrowding the GrillPlacing too much meat on the grill restricts airflow and can cause uneven cooking. Cook in batches if necessary.
Not Using a Meat ThermometerGuessing doneness can lead to undercooked or overcooked meat. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
Constant FlippingFlipping meat too often prevents proper searing and can lead to uneven cooking. Flip only once.
Using the Wrong TemperatureGrilling at too high or too low temperatures can affect texture and flavor. Use direct heat for searing and indirect heat for cooking through.
Ignoring Resting TimeCutting meat immediately after grilling causes juices to escape. Let meat rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Using the Wrong UtensilsAvoid using forks to turn meat, as this can pierce it and cause juices to drain. Use tongs or a spatula instead.
