Grilling Guide; Beef; Lamb - Weber Vieluxe 27 Built-In Grill Owner's Manual

GRILLING GUIDE

The following cuts, thicknesses, weights, and grilling times are meant to be guidelines rather than hard and fast rules.
Cooking times are affected by such factors as altitude, wind, outside temperature, and desired doneness. Two rules
of thumb: Grill steaks, fish fillets, boneless chicken pieces, and vegetables using the Direct Method for the time given
on the chart or to the desired doneness, turning once halfway through grilling time. Grill roasts, whole poultry, bone-in
poultry pieces, whole fish, and thicker cuts using the Indirect Method for the time given on the chart or until an
instant-read thermometer reaches the desired internal temperature. Cooking times for beef and lamb are for the
USDA's definition of medium doneness unless otherwise noted. Let roasts, larger cuts of meat, and thick chops and
steaks rest for 5 to 10 minutes before carving. The internal temperature of the meat will rise by 5 to 10 degrees
during this time.
