The best way to tell the temperature of your fire is to use the traditional hand test.
Hold your hand about three inches above the grate and time how long you can hold it there before you are forced to pull it back:
1 to 2 seconds — High Heat - This is perfect for your hot zone if you are searing a steak or grilling shrimp. Use this heat first to
sear the outside and lock in the juices.
2 to 3 seconds — Medium High Range - Good for most fish fillets.
4 to 5 seconds — Medium Low Range - Ideal for most chicken and veggies.
7 to 8 seconds — Low Heat - Perfect for you warm zone to finish steaks or chops. Also good for grilling delicate vegetables and fruit.
