Use the coals not fire to cook meat on an outdoor grill. Broil at low to moderate temperatures for juicier tender meat and fewer cooking losses at high heat. Let charcoal burn to gray ash for 30 to 45 minutes before placing steak chops or burgers. Space coals about a half inch apart in a single layer to reduce flare ups.
