No Frills Grill: Baldy's BBQ secrets revealed just in time for summer

Lets face it—almost anyone can grill a burger. You need only marginally better grilling skills to grill chicken (even less if you plan to eat all that blackened chicken skin), but to create a great rack of ribs is a culinary challenge.
