It’s barbecue, time in tihiQi. gar­ den again! And-, you will broil delicious steaks when you broil them with sugar/' f ' * But, who ever heard of- broil­ ing‘steaks with' sugar ? ‘ The Canadian Sugar Institute says many chefs recommend this in order, to bring out the'.* very last speck Of flavor in’fhe meat. “Sugar belongs -> in' good old- fashioned meat “'cookery. It helps make the meat, juicier, .more tender- and a lot more tasty than meat broiled just any old way,” the .InKititute’s re­ porting chefs <said; “The use of sugar on meat does not make the meat sweet. Ratheir, sugar loses its own identity in broiling and 'brings out the natural, rich flavor of meat.” * A The trick is to Use sugar, not in place of, but in addition to such accepted seasonings as salt, pepper, herbs and sauces. . Sugar helps cut fat and puts a crisp, brawn crust on the steak. This adds eye and taste appeal. Even the sizzle seems to have more crackle . and that , sounds, good in • the • gar­ den. , \ - What's the formula to get 'the best taste ever out of outdoor' steaks? Slimply, cover both-sides of the- steak With . sugar before broil­ ing. Allow’'to stand a few min­ utes until the sugar has soak­ ed in a, bit. When the surface is shiny the steak is ready for broiling , . . with all the juiiees sealed inside. The Institute reminds us that sugar on barbecued hamburg­ ers 'and chops — before putting the meat over the coals — also “makes all the difference in the world between ordinary barbecued: meat and meat full of that really rich meaty flav­ or and aroma so wonderful out­ doors”; A HOMELITE SUPER XL’67 CHAIN SAW \ For any cutting job, profes­ sional or amateur, here’s a lightweight, direct drive chain saw With super power!
