Take a side and grab your utensils! I like propane, turn it on, turn it off. How about you?

Charcoal.  Nothing beats the wood flavor.  And I even use real wood.  Something about get back to the roots of cooking.

Hmm you usa's

You have no idea The BBq starts early. She lies in bed (preferably satisfied) and goes to sleep. Just before she says, your drunk mates are around this avro for a Bbq. You organised it? You get breakfast in bed, a piece of toast. No he hasn't done nought. You go to the butcher buy the snags, chops etc. make salads. Clean the house, clean the toilet from his last visit (why do men do  not know how to clean a toilet?).

People come around, people eat too much (good), Oh you can't have children can you (Thanks bitch) oh he must be  really caring guy to look after something like you .  Smile. Decide not to be nasty he is her brother. I've found a way to send a petrol bomb. Ahh famlies.

Propane would seem like overkill at the beach, so charcoal.

Lord Kat prefers just to take the game in the open field and drag it by the scruff of the neck back to the man cave and snack on it tartar style.

It kinda depends on what I'm cooking... Burgers, steaks or chicken pieces I'd go charcoal, a whole chicken or a good sized ham I'd go rotisserie with propane

Propane torches, charcoal cooks.

I grew up with a family that used charcoal only, and when I've had propane-grilled food at a friends house or somesuch it just wasn't quite the same.

Charcoal does take longer to prepare and needs more tending but I'd say it's worth it in the end for the better flavor. Some years ago my dad got into the habit of using apple, hickory or cherry tree wood and it makes a world of (delicious) difference.

Propane is OK if one is uninterested in taking a bit of extra time to induce greater flavor but charcoal is my personal choice.  It adds a dimension to the flavor that propane can't equal.

Propane makes grilling easier - the flame/heat control is much simpler, of course - but the art of cooking over a wood fired grill is worth the extra trouble, imo.

run away the pumpkins are attacking!!!!!! its a stampede!!!

wish I had a charcoal grill but living in an apartment with your parents means you cant ... luckily 3-5 months of continuous rain fall and humidity makes having gas burners not sound bad...

Sometimes when life is a fight - we just have to fight back and say screw you - I want to live.

Sometimes we just need to believe.

You have to show those pumpkins whose boss or they'll stampede like that.  ;D

Small and cheap propane grill with wood chips on the burner. It's almost as good as charcoal and convenient.

Grliing veggies with miso is a great vegetarian dish.
