The Grill Batch Protocol

1

Two-Zone Fire Setup

Create a hot zone (direct heat) and warm zone (indirect). Sear proteins over direct heat, then move to indirect to finish. This prevents charring while ensuring internal temp safety.

2

Bulk Protein Session

Grill 3-4 proteins simultaneously: chicken thighs, steak strips, shrimp skewers, and vegetable kebabs. One 45-minute session produces 15+ servings.

3

Post-Grill Marinade Bath

Immediately place grilled proteins into a marinade or sauce bath. This locks in moisture and adds flavor that intensifies over 3-5 days of fridge storage.
