Hey Yo: Gas or Charcoal?

[Peaches]

OK, here's my list:

Charcoal (check)
Charcoal starter (check)
Flame thrower (check)
Beef (check)

Done.

I prefer charcoal, but for some reason, we have a gas grill. Why? I'm not exactly sure because the grill is not my department. LOL!

OK.. This is my kind of thread!

I actually like BOTH!
Gas is great for convenient weekday cooking, but charcoal is preferred when I have more time. If I have a party or something I will use both. I have certain things I like to cook over gas, like asperigus or even marinated chicken breasts. But if I'm cooking a nice steak, I love the charcoal flavor with hickory wood chips. It can't be beat!

I do throw some wood chips in the smoker box on the gas grill from time to time for a pleasant taste too.

I invite all you BBQ/grilling lovers to check out www.sharky.com for a great resource:-) haha.

I haven't grilled too much in the last 8-9 months because of my weight loss. I am now down about 145lbs and am ready to start cooking it up again. My lifestyle has changed enough that I no longer crave the HUGE portions I ate before and I actually enjoy grilling the healthier foods when I have time.

My passion is still grilling and I love to do it with style and flare!

Grilling competition anyone?

Yes, I used to ONLY eat heinz 57 on my well done steaks. But now I prefer no sauce and a medium steak. If I go to a friends house who doesn't know how to cook a steak or they get cheap pieces of meat I still enjoy the Heinz 57 to mask the taste! hahah

Oh, I remember.... Not that long ago that I remember the pics and stories of you being a grilling padewon who enjoyed burnt meat bathed in Heinz 57.

Glad you've discovered the other side!

If "not too long ago" was 4-5 years ago you are right. MikeAI and Serge showed me the way a few years back. :-)

Its hard to beat a pan fried steak. BBQ is ok, but a hot searing pan still trumps it.

Nope. But I do know a great steak when I eat it. I just came back from the rocky mountains and had Alberta beef in Alberta and there is none better. I usually buy Kobe beef raised in North America, but this beats the shit out of it and puts USDA prime to shame. I still love pan fried. But you need great beef to do it with.
