Thanks for stopping by Grilling Pavilion®! We're excited to share our favorite outdoor recipes, gear tips, and backyard cooking experiences with you. Here's a quick rundown to help you get the most out of your visit.
Look for the "Before You Start Cooking" Box
Under the first photo in each recipe post, you'll see a box we put together with key info. It'll tell you:
- What kind of grill or outdoor cooker you'll need.
- The skill level the recipe is geared toward.
- A few important things to know before you dive in.
Here's how we break down the skill levels:
- Easy: Straightforward recipes using basic techniques like direct grilling or single-zone griddling. Perfect for beginners or anyone looking for a quick, no-fuss cook.
- Intermediate: Great for cooks who are confident with the basics and ready to branch out. These might use multi-zone setups, new methods, or add-on tools like rotisseries.
- Advanced: Designed for seasoned outdoor cooks looking to level up with more complex methods or ingredients.
Give the Blog Post a Read (It's Worth It!)
We get it-you're ready to light the grill (we are too!). But before you jump to the recipe, take a few minutes to read the blog post. Most take 5 minutes or less to read and give you extra info that doesn't fit in the recipe card. You'll find:
- Ingredient tips and substitution notes
- Step-by-step photos
- Helpful tricks we've learned making the recipe ourselves
- Answers to questions you might have while cooking
Want to get right to the recipe? No problem. Just hit the "Jump to Recipe" button at the top of every post to go straight to the recipe card.
