Turn both sides of BBQ to HIGH
Close lid and heat a MINIMUM of 5 minutes
Add spices to steaks (less is better)
Open lid and scrape/brush of any residue (the heat will
kill any harmful bacteria)
Turn ONE side of BBQ to Medium or Medium Low
Place steaks on HOT side for ONE minute
Slide (do NOT flip) steaks to MEDIUM side
Check and note time it takes until juices start to bubble
up onto the steak’s surface
FLIP steaks back onto HOT side for ONE minute
Slide (do NOT flip) steaks to cool side for ONE HALF the
time of the first visit
Remove
and enjoy a perfect Medium Rare Steak
Note: Adjust times to compensate for humidity, wind, temperature,
and your BBQ’s unique characteristics.
Note: BBQ Sauces should only be used in smaller quantities
and applied only in the last minute or two, as the sugar in
them burns too easily.

The 100 Mile Diet in
the ByWard Market
There’s been a lot of buzz about the 100 Mile Diet. The
idea is to eat only food that has been produced within 100 miles
of where you live. The benefits include reducing green house gases
because food isn’t transported thousands of miles from where
it grew, a strengthened local economy as area farmers benefit
from increased purchases and, because far fewer processed and
sugary foods are eaten, many followers of this eating plan also
report a substantial weight loss.
