Overcrowding the Grill

When you are hosting a cookout for a group of people, it's inevitable that you will end up cooking a range of steaks, ribs, sausages, chicken legs and hamburger patties (not to mention grilled corn on the cob). It's tempting to throw everything on the grill at once to get the party started, but this is a big mistake. Stay calm and cook one thing at a time, starting with meat that requires a high heat (steaks and burgers) then gradually reduce the temperature to cook the sausages and chicken. Grilled meat needs to rest a while before it is consumed, so use the time intelligently, perhaps grilling up some vegetables in the meantime. As long as you have plenty of snacks at the ready, everybody will be happy.
