What If It Rains?
Cooking indoors in the oven or with a broiler is a fine alternative to grilling if the weather isn't cooperating. You can still get great flavor if you follow these tips for marinating and cooking indoors.
Beef Steaks
Marinate 3–24 hours; broil about 3 inches from the heat source for 12–15 minutes, turning once, until achieving desired degree of doneness.
Chicken Parts (bone in)
Marinate 3–24 hours; roast at 425°F for about 40 minutes, or broil 5–6 inches from the heat source for 25–35 minutes, or until juices run clear.

Thanks - this is just what I've been looking for. But "weather isn't cooperating," my foot! Some of us, like me, are city slickers who live in apartments.
