Jack Doesn't Know Jack - "The Grand Prize"!

Congratulations to Tim Waltke of Kingston! Tim is the Grand Prize winner of the BBQ Boot Camp at the Culinary Institute of America! Tim will also get 2 Meet & Greet passes to meet Jimmy Wayne at Bethel Woods on June 15th! Thank You to the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park and Bethel Woods for such great prizes! Thank You to all of our listeners for playing another edition of "Jack Doesn't Know Jack"!

Jack Doesn't Know Jack - "This Is Corny"

Problem 5: Your corn fails to amaze when you offer your guests newly spray buttered corn! Instead a blackened cylinder that looks more like evidence in an arson than corn on the cob.

A: Take out the silk and the outermost layers of the corn husk, but leave that last layer on before you set it on the grill.

B: Coat the corn with butter prior to putting it on the grill.

C: Par-boil corn before placing it on the grill.

Jack Doesn't Know Jack - "Flame Broiled"

Problem 3: Your grate catches fire or the fire suddenly becomes huge and engulfs your food.

a: Adding ground clove to the meat will help naturally extinguish the flames.

B: Keep a portable fan next to the grill to keep the temperature down.

c: Trim meats of excess fats. Don't put too much oil on vegetables or breads. If the flames pop up, don't spray water on the fire -- simply move the food to a cooler portion of the grill.
