  1. I've used both. I prefer gas. It's cleaner and quicker imo. I have cooked meat on gas grills that people swore I cooked it with charcoal. You just have to know how to use those wood chips to produce more flavor. Applewood is my favorite

  2. When it comes to grilling, the whole gas vs Charcoal is a farce. Bunch of pompous people thinking they are special because they slave hard to be grilling coal loyalist. Well, you are only special if the end result actually justified the means. I’m talking about backyard grilling, not actual bbq. Huge difference. The video about is about grilling! I’ve been grilling for decades (gas, coal and wood) and I have fooled all sorts of charcoal loyalists will my gas grilling. The key is to buy a well made gas unit like a Weber. Yes charcoal is slightly more flavorful but we’re talking by a nose better if you have a good grill. With a good gas grill, most enthusiast can’t tell the difference and that’s when the ends don’t justify the means. Once charcoal hits it’s readiness to grill, its virtually odorless. That’s why people who do REAL BBQ add wood chips to their charcoal (which you can add to a gas grill too). It’s the drippings from your food that hit the hot charcoal and smoke your food. Gas grill Lava rock, tents and ceramics achieve the same thing. It’s only mildly more smoke flavor with charcoal. In that case, for the trouble, I’ll go straight wood on special big party 4th of July days and stick with gas on NFL Sunday and MLB Sunday’s.

    Get a real serious gas grill and Save your time, patients and Charcoal for your Slow cook BBQ roast, ribs, briskets and chicken moments. That’s where charcoal shines and it’s worth the mess and smelling like Smokey shit. But when it comes to burgers and searing steaks, a high quality gas grill is all you need. -and for people who say you can grill indoors with gas? Uh no! That’s an amateur comment. Unless you have a top of the line vent system, no you can’t. Griddle cooking is not grilling! Griddle cooking takes place on a solid metal surface between 300-400. Grilling is open flame well above 400 and your drippings are being torched into smoke. Big difference! The closest thing most people have in their kitchen to a grill is a bottom broiler on their oven. Not quite the same thing!

  3. Many people in the comments keep saying grilling when speaking of BBQ’ing BBQ=CHARCOAL OR WOOD cooked with meat often cooked low n slow. GRILLING—What a Nancy man uses to make tasteless whack shit using a button to maintain the heat. Also known as the propane nation

  4. I grew up in a hank hill family(propane) but I pranked my dad on 4th of July by using charcoal. He said this tastes “American grown” and he glances at my grill and vomits a burger bc it was charcoal. Idk I’m allowed to host a 4th of July barbecue again.
