What if I told you that grilling smart could not only make you healthier but also increase your muscle mass? Well it’s true! By throwing the right types of meat on the grill, you can eat your way to a stronger (and possibly slimmer) you. Start off by choosing cuts of meat that are higher in protein but lower in fat. If you are trying to lose weight, marinades might not be the best because they can be high in calories due to the oil and sugar. For a slimmer option try using dry rubs that are low in sodium to decrease your caloric intake.
Ideal cuts of meat:
- Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- Flank steak
- Sirloin steak
- Pork Tenderloin
- 96% lean ground beef
- Any type of fish
- Flaky fish may need to be cooked on a grilling tray or foil
