Grill Like a Pro: Tips and Tricks for Cooking the Perfect Chorizo
Grilling is one of the best ways to cook chorizo, a type of sausage that originated in Spain and is now enjoyed in different parts of the world. Philippine chorizo, in particular, is a popular type of chorizo that is known for its sweet and tangy flavor. If you’re looking to impress your friends and family with perfectly grilled chorizo, here are some tips and tricks to help you grill like a pro.
Choosing the Right Chorizo
The first step to grilling perfect chorizo is choosing the right type of chorizo. Philippine chorizo is typically made from ground pork and is seasoned with a mix of spices, including garlic, paprika, and vinegar. It is important to choose high-quality chorizo that is fresh and has a good balance of fat and lean meat. Avoid chorizo that is too greasy or has a strong odor, as this can affect the taste of the final product.
Preparing the Chorizo
Once you have chosen your chorizo, it’s time to prepare it for grilling. Philippine chorizo is typically sold in links or casings, and can be grilled as is or sliced into bite-sized pieces. For chorizo on a barbeque stick, you can cut the chorizo into small pieces and thread them onto skewers. For chorizo bites on a stick, you can wrap the chorizo with bacon or cheese and grill until crispy.
Seasoning the Chorizo
While Philippine chorizo is already seasoned with spices, you can enhance its flavor by adding your own seasonings. For a smoky flavor, you can add some smoked paprika or chipotle powder to the chorizo. For a sweeter flavor, you can brush the chorizo with honey or maple syrup before grilling. You can also marinate the chorizo in a mixture of oil, vinegar, and herbs for a few hours before grilling to add more flavor.
Grilling the Chorizo
Grilling chorizo is a quick and easy process that can be done on a gas or charcoal grill. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. For chorizo on a barbeque stick, place the skewers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the chorizo is cooked through and slightly charred. For chorizo bites on a stick, place the wrapped chorizo on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bacon is crispy and the chorizo is cooked through.
Serving the Chorizo
Once your chorizo is perfectly grilled, it’s time to serve it to your guests. Philippine chorizo is typically served with rice, eggs, and vegetables for breakfast, but can also be enjoyed as a snack or appetizer. For chorizo on a barbeque stick, you can serve it with a dipping sauce, such as chimichurri or garlic mayo. For chorizo bites on a stick, you can serve them on a platter with toothpicks for easy snacking.
Achieving the perfect char on Philippine chorizo is an art that takes practice to master. The key is to grill the chorizo over medium-high heat until it is cooked through and slightly charred on the outside, while still retaining its juiciness and flavor on the inside.
Perfect Char in Grilling Chorizo
To achieve the perfect char, it’s important to keep an eye on the chorizo while grilling and turn it frequently to prevent burning. You can also baste the chorizo with oil or butter to help it cook evenly and develop a nice crust on the outside. Once the chorizo is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
