Gas or charcoal grill?!
I am moving into a house for the first time and I've always wanted a grill!. What I would like to know is what kind of grill do you like the best, charcoal or gas!? And as an extra question what is your favorite food to grill!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Lot of good answers here but since this is your first grill I'll add my 2 cents!.
Charcoal is better!. For the reasons indicated!. Always buy Kingsford charcoal!. Very consistent heat and burn speed!. You can easily learn to time when to put more on!. 20 minute burn on that briquette!.
Gas is convenient!. As stated, you can make smoke on a gas grill and improve the flavor!. The easiest way is to buy wood chips!. Cut a coke/beer can in half and put the chips in the can!. Chips can be soaked for a longer smoking session or simply burned off dry for a light smoke!. Get the smoke going before you put the food on!.
For Charcoal, get a round 22 inch Weber!. They are expensive but will last years!. The round design focuses heat and the multiple vents allow you to control it!. This one charcoal grill can do most everything including smoking on a limited basis!. The large grilling area gives you plenty of space for direct and indirect grilling!. You can even get an optional rotisserie kit!.
For a gas grill, step up a bit and get at least 3 burners!. Stainless steel is the rage these days but for the cost of the steel, I’d opt for no stainless and better quality burners and grates!. You want heavy burners and heavy grates!. 3 burners so you can finitely control how much heat gets where!.
I have the weber I describe and their bullet smoker!. I also have a gas grill!.
Favorite to Grill!?
You name it!. We do it!. Ribs has to be my favorite over all!. Tri tip next!. I BBQ meatloaf even!. Vegetables; on the grill!. Baked potatoes and beets!. The list goes on!.

charcoal and wood!. The flavor is way better than gas and I smoke lots of meats (true BBQ) low and slow!. Ive cooked for years in restaurants all over the US and Ive cooked over only 5 wood fired grills!. all the rest were gas!. The flavor improvement of wood over gas is more than 10 fold!. gas may be easy but charcoal or wood has the flavor and makes all the difference!.
I love grilling all foods but pineapple and mango are my favorites to grill
I love smoking pork butts for pulled pork and ribs too!. But any food on a grill is better than on the stove top!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Gas!.
Per the husband!.
You can still soak wood to get a smoke flavoring!.
Gas is easier!.
Steaks and hamburgers
We make "poor boys" thick hamburger wrapped with a slice or two of bacon wrapped around (like filet minon) and toothpicks to hold the ends!.

Gas is easier, but with charcoal, the taste is MUCH better!.
So, it depends on you, if you wanna go with easy or with tasty!.
I personally prefer charcoal!.
