With outdoor grilling now in full swing, it's a good time to look at
some safe practices for using your barbeque. Harvard scientists
report
that when meat is cooked at high temperatures, amino acids react with
creatine to form heterocyclic amines, which appear to be cancer-
causing. That's why cooking meat by grilling, frying, or broiling can
be a problem.

Grilling is double trouble because it also exposes meat to cancer-
causing chemicals contained in the smoke that rises from burning
coals
and any drips of fat that cause flare-ups. How long the meat is
cooked
is also a factor in heterocyclic amine formation; longer cooking time
means more heterocyclic amines. Depending on the temperature at which
it's cooked, meat roasted or baked in the oven may contain some
heterocyclic amines, but it's likely to be considerably less than in
grilled, fried, or broiled meat.

But did you know that there is a way to reduce these cancer-causing
byproducts by as much as 90%? Simply precook in the microwave:
According to research, just two minutes of precooking in the
microwave
can have a very significant impact on your health.

This is really pitiful. It harks back to the days when worry-warts were
looking for carcinogens under every rock. Sure, they found a lot of
chemicals, some in grilled meat, that cause cancer in rats when they are
given a huge dose every day for weeks or months. Since then scientists
have learned that the body is very resilient, and small, occasional
doses of such chemicals do not seem to have any effect on human health.
Yet the paranoids, as this article shows, are still running around
flapping their hands and yelling "the sky is falling."

Microwave meat before grilling - gimme a break. Next we'll be boiling
ribs before grilling <g>!

It is not a quote from Harvard. It is the blogger's interpretation.
It is a blog which means that any idiot can write anything he wants as
long as he does not libel anyone.

How about quoting the complete article from the Harvard Health Letter.

Oh, so you've been to St. Louis to sample the wares of our local Lion's
Clubs and VFW's.

That's hilarious JT because when I think of a burned steak or "char
broiled" as they say, I think of the annual Elk's Lodge community
barbeque here in Sedona,

Your blogspot web site is just a come-on
to get victims to click through to the ads.

Your advice is crap. You don't understand
squat about risk assessment.

Here's what a fact-based risk assessment looks like:

Note the position of charcoal-broiled steaks on this list,
as compared to things like eating peanut butter.

Your advice is crap. Your commercial web site is crap.
You are not competent to judge risks because you do not
have a basic understanding of science or statistics.
