There's nothing like the smell of charcoal, the sizzling of flames and the crackling of good food. Here are 4 tips by master grillers to help you get started and make the most of your BBQ time.

• Marinating does make a difference
  Helps in enhancing the natural flavour of the meat, tenderizes and introduces other complementary flavours
  ''A marinade can add delicious flavours to grill favourites like meat, fish and veggies.” – Chef Chris Velden, The Flying Apron Inn & Cookery
  
  
• Use traditional oil or make the grill naturally non-stick
  According to Teddy Bricker, an award-winning chef and the owner of Soursop in Austin, San easier way to create a non-stick surface, is "Halve a potato and rub the hot grates with them to avoid using a lot of oil. This will make the grill naturally non-stick," (Source: Eat This, Not That!)
  
  
  
  
• Don't move your food around too much or it will not come off the grill!
  Let the meat be on the grate as long as possible so that it cooks through evenly and gets good grill marks.
  "A common mistake that most people tend to make is they don’t allow the meat to just cook – they move it around a lot, which doesn’t allow the meat to properly sear on the outside," Sloane Emden, corporate executive chef at Angry Crab Shack (Source: Woman's Day)
  
  
• Let the meat rest after grilling
  To enjoy the best flavours, you should always let the meat rest for about four minutes before cutting or serving.
  "When the meat comes off the grill, the muscle fibers are tense. If you cut the meat before they have time to relax, a lot of juice will be lost," says Emden, corporate executive chef at Angry Crab Shack (Source: Woman's Day) "Let it rest for a few minutes to enjoy every bit of flavour it has to offer.’’
