I must admit I`ve never cooked on a natural gas grill, but I`ve eaten few times food made on such grill and the difference is huge. Indeed, maybe the first few times you can overcook (i dont know the exact word in english) the meat, but once you get used to the charcoal you`ll never look back. | ||

Grilling steak is my absolute favorite. I love putting ribs in the barbecue too, but it needs good preparation to really have taste. Currently my family uses a 2/3 barbecue sauce, 1/3 maple syrup mix for glazing, and it's pretty good. | ||

- James Branch Cabell I rated you 5 out of 5 stars, and would rate you 5 out of 5 stars again. If only I could rate you six! I think my own parody of a girl blog couldn't even hold a candle to this. I even misread "Gril" as "girl" and didn't realize what was going on until halfway through your post. This was truly entertaining. EDIT: right, what do I like to grill?! Well, I enjoy burgers and sausages as much as the next guy, but the real thing I love grilling is ONIONS. I take some of those suckers, chop them into quarters, skewer them and put them on the grill to caramelize and just become delicious. It's basically the best. | ||

I personally think almost every meat tastes better on charcoal except hotdogs/sausage, but that might just be because I suck at not overcooking them. | ||

I myself don't have one but I ate some at a friend's BBQ and it was amazing. I personally love grilling food... yum! | ||

 Excellent. Glad to hear you're joining the club. I'm quite partial to grilled Kielbasi as well as hamburgers and hotdogs and the like. I have to say though, my absolute favorite is to leave ribs in a marinade over night and then slow cook them for a good 5/6 hours. mmmhhhmmmmm Kebabs are also quite excellent.

I've heard the difference is amazing but I just can't imagine being able to regulate the temperature well on a charcoal. Is it worth the switch? Without a doubt. I used a gas grill all last summer, and got a lot of good meals off it, but the guy I was keeping it for moved and took it with him so I picked up a charcoal grill for this summer's grilling sessions and the taste has been noticeably better. Regulating the temp is a good bit harder, but really it all comes down to getting good charcoal. I've used some pretty crappy stuff that burns hot, fast and short, but there is charcoal out there that gives a longer, more stable heat. Also, its important to remember you're not cooking with flames when you use charcoal, you want to be cooking over embers to get the most consistent and even heat possible. | ||

How do you control the temperature on a charcoal grill? I know you can control the oxygen but how do you know what setting yields what temperature? Just experience?  | ||
