How Hot is Hot?

	To test the heat level of your grill, hold the palm of your hand above the heat source at cooking level and time how long you can hold it there.
		A hot fire (400 to 450 degrees) allows a 2-second hand count.
		A medium-hot fire (375 to 400 degrees) allows a 3-second hand count.
		A medium fire (350 to 375 degrees) allows a hand count of 4 seconds.
		A low fire (300 to 350 degrees) increases the count to 5 seconds.
