Your Healthiest Grilling Choices

There’s no smarter way to cook.  Just start with a reasonable 4-ounce portion and remember these tips.

Steak
Look for “loin” or “round” cuts, like tip sirloin, top round, ground round and tenderloin- they’re typically leanest.

Good: T-bone (318 calories, 22 grams of fat)
Better: Beef tenderloin (218 calories, 9 grams of fat)
Best: Top sirloin (207 calories, 7 grams of fat)

Burgers
Burgers can be healthy- just avoid highest calorie pairings like monster buns or extra cheese

Good: Ground turkey burger (266 calories, 15 grams of fat)
Better: Ground sirloin burger (244 calories, 12 grams of fat)
Best: Ground bison burger (202 calories, 10 grams of fat)

Fish
Fish is the best friend of any healthy diet- highest in nutrients low in saturated fat.

Good: Salmon (233 calories, 14 grams of fat)
Better: Tuna (208 calories, 7 grams of fat)
Best: Shrimp (112 calories, 1 gram of fat)

Chicken
Lean and packing a mean punch of protein, a clicker is a not-brainer to toss on the grill.

Good: Thigh meat, with skin (279 calories, 18 grams of fat)
Better: Breast meat, with skin (223 calories, 9 grams of fat)
Best: Breast meat with no skin (186 calories, 4 grams of fat)
