If all you’re doing on the grill is searing steak and browning the occasional hot dog, you’re failing to see its full potential. Join Meathead—the celebrated creator of the most popular grilling website in the world, a Barbecue Hall of Famer and author of a book named one of the 100 best cookbooks of all time—for a pre-recorded livestream class where you’ll be blown away by the unexpected ways you can use your grill this summer season. Our focus in this class is how to use a charcoal chimney to create a super-powered, ultra-high-heat stove that’s ideal for wok cooking. So to all of you who have said that your indoor stoves don’t get hot enough to successfully cook in your wok, this one’s for you. You’ll learn to prepare the chimney and keep its heat on high as you make a batch of beef fried rice with plenty of veggies that cooks up in minutes. Plus, Meathead shows you how simple it is to make perfect fried chicken in a pot set right on your grill—with no risk of splattering your whole kitchen with oil. You’ll also get a tour of all of his favorite grilling tools and “toys.”
