Grilling questions.......

[Kylo Ren]

I've been doing more grilling lately. I enjoy it, but don't have much experience. For years, all I've done is burgers, dogs, brats, steaks, chicken and such. But, lately, I've been trying to do more things, like mushrooms, peppers, pineaple and other things.

Sorry if these are stupid or simplistic questions for some of you master grillers........ But, I'm really enjoying learning new cooking methods and new foods, even if they are simple. As I learn, I'll start cooking more complex foods and using more complex methods.

How should I grill red potatoes? Do I boil them first, then finish them on the grill? Or, do I just skewer them raw and grill them without any pre-cooking?

How should I grill corn on the cob? I was just going to wrap each cob in foil with some butter. Then, as I grill, I'll keep turning them, which will baste them in the butter. I know there are better methods, but that is where I was going to start.

For now, as I'm learning techniques, I'm grilling with gas. I know that charcoal is better. But, I'm not buying a new grill right now. When I progress to another grilling level, I'll buy a charcoal grill and maybe a smoker. But, I don't know that I'll ever be a smoker, because I am not that patient. I can't spend hours cooking. Grilling is probably all that I'll enjoy doing.

Anyway, please give me some pointers, tips, techniques and recepies.

Thanks!!
