The steaks came out great for a change.

Nice to have a grill that makes me feel like I can cook again.

I just don't see how the gas lovers don't have a 100% clear picture from the start. It took me several years to get cooking temps, indirect heat and shit like that down. Charcoal rules. Go **** up some chicken on a gas grill because you are so impatient that a half hour is all you have. I don't even see how it's an argument.

30 minutes is even an exaggeration. If people are impatient because of coals, they really only take 10 minutes to start glowing.

Well, I've had a stainless steel seven burner grill for a decade. It also has a wood chip tray that I use on occasion as well.

I take my time when grilling food, whether it's chicken, dogs, brats, burgers and steaks. I make sure that everything is properly seasoned and prepared before it goes on the grill and the results have always been excellent.

Now, I can't claim that my food is the "best in the world", nor can I claim that it couldn't be improved by cooking on charcoal. But I can claim that it is very, very good and that inside my circle of friends, I'm considered the grill master.

Haha. True, when I was younger I would just burn shit up by feeding fat to the fire.

I always let my charcoal go for a few a hours first and gotten pretty good at guessing the right amount to use. Get a bag of Matchlight and a couple pounds of filets. Magic within 15 minutes when your grill goes up in flames.

All you need is this do-hickey. Fill it to the top and it'll last you hours. Take 10 minutes for the coals to turn read. I can cook ribs for 2 hours and they're still hot as hell.

Grilling for me is so much better now that I've made the switch from match light to regular coals. They seem to burn 10 times longer.

you still should sear the out side (on a grill etc) when using sous vide, but after it is at temperature...i think...

That method isn't for me. The way I cook a steak is simple. A couple pinches of Kosher salt and coarse black pepper. My favorite cut is the top sirloin, I like a chewy steak. I put the steak right on the flames to char up. About 3-4 minutes on each side until both sides look nice and charred. Then I cover the BBQ and set my vents 1/4 open. I cook for about 8-10 minutes for medium rare. The steaks are about an inch thick. Costco is pretty consistent with their sizes.

It surprises me to see you of all people arguing this point. I use a regular Weber grill to make some damn good stuff,

So, "you dummy"

The reason you're surprised is because you read whet I wrote wrong.

I love charcoal flavor. I have charcoal grills.

Sometimes I don't want that flavor though or I want to use gas.

This other guy tried telling me he can taste gas.

Yes the same guy who likes chewy top sirloin.

If I had to pick one grill it would be gas with a smoker box.

I love charcoal. I just love gas too. And use it more....you can add smoke....if u

want
