1. Reasons Why Meat Burns When Grilling with Charcoal

When grilling meat over charcoal, the most common issue many people face is meat burning. This not only compromises the taste of the food but also affects the health and grilling experience of individuals. Below are some common reasons leading to the problem of burnt grilled meat:

  • Excessive heat: When the charcoal fire burns too brightly or is not evenly distributed, the meat comes into contact with higher temperatures than necessary, leading to rapid burning.
  • Uncontrolled grilling time: If the meat is grilled for too long without being turned and moved evenly, the surface of the meat may burn while the inside remains uncooked.
  • Too much sugar in seasonings: Seasonings or sauces containing sugar can easily burn when exposed to high temperatures, causing charred spots and a burnt odor on the meat.
  • Excessive use of oil: Excess oil on the meat can increase the likelihood of flare-ups within the grill, resulting in uneven burning.
    Failure to turn and move the meat evenly: Not turning and moving the meat evenly during grilling can lead to one side of the meat burning while the other side remains undercooked.

2. The Impact of Charcoal Smoke on Health and Preventive Measures

2.1. The Effects of Charcoal Smoke on Health

When burning conventional charcoal types like charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal, Carbon Monoxide (CO) gas can be produced. In confined and poorly ventilated spaces, CO gas is extremely toxic and harmful to health. CO gas displaces oxygen in the bloodstream, leading to oxygen deprivation in all organs of the body and potentially resulting in death. Charcoal smoke can also irritate the respiratory tract, containing harmful substances such as volatile hydrocarbons, benzene, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which can cause cancer and respiratory system issues. These factors can lead to fatal consequences.

2.2 Preventive Measures

To minimize the adverse effects of charcoal smoke on health, it is crucial to utilize smoke control measures such as smokeless charcoal and opt for modern BBQ grills that allow for the adjustment of smoke and temperature levels.
