Grilling: Battle of the SexesThe heat is on at the beautiful Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel as four couples fire up the grills for a very special class with the ultimate grilling guides, Chefs Gregg and Kelly Wangard.
In this poolside class, held only during the summer, the husband-and-wife chef team lead a group of students through an entire gourmet meal on the grill: from appetizer...to grilled peach desert! To add a little heat to the event, they separate the men from the women and have the two teams compete to see who really masters the grill.
Daily Dish Tips
Grilling Tip #1: The number of seconds you're able to hold your hand over the coals helps you determine their temperature: two seconds means they're hot; four seconds means they're medium-hot; and six seconds indicates low heat.
Grilling tip #2: Keep the lid on your charcoal grill. Every time you lift the lid it adds to your cooking time.
Grilling tip #3: Use tongs when moving or flipping food, a fork releases the tasty juices that grilling produces!
