Tufts, owner of the Easton, Mass. based company, shares his winter grilling tips with hardy New England grillin’ enthusiasts.

·First step is shoveling that path to the grill. Second is checking to make sure you have enough propane.
·Preheat the grill to prevent the food from sticking to grates. Turn grill on high until the grill comes to temperature, which may take about 20 minutes in inclement weather. Then turn heat down to low to cook roasts, lamb, steaks, chicken, fish and vegetables.
·When grilling in the cold weather, the trick is to keep the grill covered. Peeking at the food allows heat to escape quickly and adds 5 to 10 minutes to your cooking time, each time you lift the lid.
·Some comfort foods ideal for winter grilling include squash, apples, pumpkin, leeks, brussel sprouts, potatoes, sweet potatoes, chestnuts, and onions.
·Want to warm your insides? How about adding a little Merlot wine steak sauce to that great cut of beef or spicing up your chicken with a Vidalia onion and Jalapeno pepper hot sauce? Remember, add sauce or glaze after the food is cooked and very briefly place meat or chicken on a low grill.
·Now you’re smokin’. Like that authentic wood smoke flavor? Pick up an iron smoking box and wood chips for your gas grill. A smoking box is affordable and instructions for use are included.
·O.K., so it’s begun to snow. Keep safety in mind and don’t shirk your grill cleaning duties. If you don’t burn the grease off the grill after each use, the grease builds up and makes the grill super hot, but doesn’t cook the food properly. Grease build-up can also cause a fire. Turn the heat to high, close the lid and leave for 10-15 minutes to burn the grease off the grill.

Tufts remarks, “Winter grilling is just as quick and easy as any other season. Grilling during a blizzard requires some fortitude, but then again, we New Englanders are robust folk who like the challenge of the elements.”
