21. No contest. Charcoal can be carcinogenic because of its petroleum additives. Go with gas and live!

Yes it does take longer but that's what bbq is all about. Nice n slow cooking with a cold brew............. Posted at 9:56PM on May 18th 2006 by Mike 24. I live in a condo in Florida and have searched for a "charcoal" table top electric grill for years, Any suggestions would be appreciated. Posted at 10:09PM on May 18th 2006 by alice 25. I've used Royal Oak Charcoal brickette's for years because it's harder than Kingsford. It burns much longer and hotter than Kingsford because of that. It's now also harder to find, but worth the hunt. Posted at 10:13PM on May 18th 2006 by T K Higgs 26. I have used a Weber for about 5 years. Nothing like a hot fire thats ready in just a few minutes. And no messy charcoal to get your hands dirty. Also a tank of propane will last me 3 months in the winter and it takes only takes 2 0r 3 in the summer. And we do get some nasty winter days in Idaho, makes it nice when you have a covered patio. Posted at 10:22PM on May 18th 2006 by Fred E. Ripley 27. I do not know much about grill cooking. But I did purchase what I thought, at the time, was a pretty good natural gas barbecue grill. I connected it and was using it pretty well. However I wasn't really happy with the heat. In addition to that the lighter (piezo) was a rotary unit and kids were constantly playing with it to the point that it broke. I got parts for it and it was broken again. It got to be such a pain in the butt that I just did away with the unit and bought a small cheap charcoal grill. The nextime I buy a grill I am going to be looking for either a natural gas or propane but with a dish level just above the burners that I can put imitation brickets on (that look like charcoal) and when the burners are lit will in turn heat the brickets so as to get an EVEN and HOT grill. In addition the lighter will be a push button, not rotary. Of course the grill should have stainless parts but I think with my requirements, I am getting pretty high on the cost list.

Gas grills are so quick to cook with, i grill 5 days a week, and my wife makes a side dish, takes her 7 minutes, life is good for me...as long as i have a few beers for grillin. peace Posted at 11:29PM on May 18th 2006 by Brad Dougherty 31. Propane if used properly, will cook and make food taste better than charcoal (regardless of what make) It is also cleaner and requires less clean up than charcoal.

I have proven this by cooking same meat on both,Charcoal and Gas, serving to "So-Called" expert grill cookers...and they could not POSITIVELY pick which was cooked on which. It's all in your head, not your taste buds. Posted at 11:30PM on May 18th 2006 by Dick M. 33. people that cook with charcoal have to much time on their hands..propane is the way to go, if u know how to cook with it, i work for Char Broil, my grillin is out of this world just listening to our grillin team, the have taught me alot. use woods chips, read a book on how to use them, peace out.

Briskets,wild game,fish, chicken and of course don't forget those fajitas are best cooked in this fashion. Cooking in a grill made of large diameter pipe 30"-36" and 3/8" -1/2" in thickness allows you to leave your meats away from the direct flame and/or heat(no flipping necessary). My pit is made of a high pressure seamless carbon/chrome alloy and will be on this earth long past my days for my children and maybe their children to enjoy. The mesquite can be burned down to coals if you prefer your meats with less smoke flavor or let your wood only ash on the surface if you like it with more smoked flavor. Proper venting allows you to control your temperature according to what type of meat you are cooking. yummy!!!!yummy!!!! south Texas BBQ Posted at 1:51AM on May 19th 2006 by James Almendarez 36. I have this fantastic $30,000 out door kitchen that I built. I made it out of 28 pallets of used brick from the 1920s. When people come over they are very impressed with the stainless steel Viking grill, hood vent and the double under counter refers. ( I have pictures) When they taste the food they love that just as much. But I have to be honest a gas grill isn't what you may think it is when it comes to flavor. Yes, you have even temps and so on. However, on my Viking you cant cook with the cover down because it creates too much heat for its design. Meaning, you will melt the plastic knobs on the face of the grill. The first time Viking reluctantly replaced them for me the second time I had to pay for them. So my BBQ is just for show! I use a Webber that I installed a temp gauge on it and it works much better than my Viking. But I will tell you, the Viking is a beautiful display.... Posted at 1:53AM on May 19th 2006 by Brian 37. Having been in the gasgrill business many yearsmost people don't know how to use there gas grill. Posted at 2:42AM on May 19th 2006 by Howard Dunlap 38. I have used a TEC infrared ceramic gas grill for years, a Christmas present to the family one year, and am amazed with its ability to heat up quickly, not flame up, and give good flavor. I am on propane, not natural gas, but has worked fine. If you want to sear steaks, this is the grill. I also cook ribs, to give you an idea of the slow cooking possible, just turn one burner on low and close the lid, it acts like an oven. Posted at 3:00AM on May 19th 2006 by Phil Irwin 39. Grilled Steak on demand even at below zero temeratures all year-round, I'll take the gas grill antime. Posted at 5:24AM on May 19th 2006 by Joe Byrnes 40. "Taste the food, NOT the fuel!"
