Charcoal or Propane?

What? Seriously, nobody mentioned this?

I have to admit I do use one of these guys every now and then, but I don't have a patio, porch, or garage, so my choices are pretty limited . My folks at home love to grill with briquettes on a weber, though. Those towers are indeed great for getting them started.

EDIT: And geebus those eggs are pricey! It's just high-temp ceramic! Those guys know how to successfully run a high-margin business, looks like .

Anytime I cook something in propare it reminds me of a household furnace. I use charchol despite the fact it is a PITA and more expensive. Just like I homebrew rather than buy BMC. Some will say that's apples to oranges, but heck that's my take.

Ah. YOu guys got me all worked up for an Egg. Then I saw the price. Sorry, but that is VERY unrealistic for me. Perhaps if I recieved an inheritance someday...

My plain jane gas grill works pretty good for my grilling needs. But, I think I may be spoiled now, after reading up on the egg, and seeing all that tender and delicious food being cooked on it.

You want to get one at an eggfest. You will usually save $200+ that way.

7 year old POS propane grill here. It's definitely seen better days and needs to be replaced. I am actually looking forward to scalping the starters and the side burner off of it for the brew rig.

Haven't decided on a replacement for it yet.
