More Great Grilling
Duke has unlocked Food Network's vault of great grilling recipes! Check out those recipes along with my favorite baked bean dishes. You can even send a talking greeting card from Duke to your friends!

Our good friend and host of PBS' "Barbecue America," Rick Browne, has some easy advice to make your next grilling occasion great.

• Wait until the last 10 minutes of your grilling time to put on barbecue sauce. Sugars in the sauce burn easily and can produce a black, unappetizing crust on the food.
• For safe grilling, use a meat thermometer to test the internal temperature.
• Pineapple, pears or half peaches dipped in melted butter, then sprinkled with a brown sugar-nutmeg-cinnamon mixture and grilled make a wonderful dessert.

Check out the What to Grill Guide for more great tips from Rick. The New season of "Barbecue America" started May 1... Check your local TV listings for shows and recipes featuring Bush's Baked Beans.
