It's Memorial Day weekend and barbecue season!

News 12's Carol Silva visited Chubs Meats in Medford to get a little consultation about meat.

HOW TO PICK STEAK:
Look for marbling. Keeps meat moist.
Salt, pepper, garlic, olive oil on each side.
Cook low and slow over indirect heat for 6-7 minutes a side for rare.

CHICKEN:
Avoid rubbery chicken by asking your butcher for a medium cut. If cutlets are too thin, they'll over cook.

BURGERS:
Push down a patty in the middle so it cooks evenly.
