Have a Safe Labor Day Barbecue
If you are eating meat, then go for the leanest cuts to reduce fat dripping onto the coals, and try some grilled veggies as a side dish and fruit as dessert - the antioxidants can help fight carcinogens. Marinating is a perfect way to infuse flavor into meats, and it can reduce the formation of HCAs by up to 99 percent. Don't baste meats in the liquid in which they marinated - this can pass on bacteria. Instead, set aside marinade for basting before adding the meat.
