What powers your boil kettle?

  • Propane

  • Natural Gas

  • Electric

  • Stovetop (including electric, ng, etc.)

  • Other

Results are only viewable after voting.
Propane, Nat Gas, and Electric are all very cheap around this area.

I have shocked myself enough times working on cars to know I shouldn't be messing with my house.

Propane only works out to a dollar or two a batch for me (10gal), so I see no reason to switch at the moment. Eventually I might switch the MLT or HLT to electric for ease if I feel like I need to burn some money. (120V, so all I have to do is plug it in...)
 
Just curious...for the two of you who voted 'other', what are you using? Coal?
 
I was using a turkey fryer with propane for a while. Just finished my AG setup so now I am all electric.
