Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of barbecue season and I know a lot of folks will be firing up the grill this holiday weekend.

Part of the beauty of grilling is how easy it is. But that don’t mean you can’t improve your grill technique or pick up a tip or two.

We’ve put together some recipes and tips here that can help you become a master of the open flame.

ALL AMERICAN BURGERS
While you probably have pretty good idea how to grill a hamburger, it never hurts to see how somebody else does it. Watch this video from the BBQ Pit Boys, and you just might pick up a little something.

BBQ PORK BURGERS
Hamburgers considered old hat in your home? Serve up some pork burgers this weekend.

GRILLED T-BONE STEAKS
Can't go wrong with a juicy T-bone steak to officially kick off summer. Here’s how to properly prepare it on the grill.

BBQ PIZZA
Combine the greatness of the grill with the greatness of pizza. This tutorial shows you how to prep your pie on either a gas or charcoal grill, depending on your equipment.

GRILLED VEGGIES
The Food Network’s Giada De Laurentiis grills her veggies in the kitchen, but you can summer-fy the recipe by taking the same steps on the outdoor grill.

DRUNKEN CHICKEN
Some folks call it Beer-Can Chicken. Just keep your grilled chicken moist and stable on the pit with a can of beer.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH LEMON AIOLI
Nothing wrong with getting a little fancy. Break up the usual fare with lemony jumbo shrimp from the grill.

(I am struggling with it, but I may break down and share some of my award winning recipes before the weekend is over, including my "Jamerican Jerk Sauce", it seemed to be a big pretty big hit at the recent "Railfest".  It depends on how much beer I drink. So, check back...)
