I'm a big fan of Propane, i'm personal friends with Hank Hill, he sells me my propane and propane accessories.
With propane you can taste the meat not the heat. and also easier to manage with no chemical run off after burns it's a clean burn with no chemical bi products.
That all being said I do enjoy an occasional burger cooked over a charcoal flame. -

You could test it in your gas grill, just need another grate, to set above the burners, that you can put the charcoal on. Would be between the burners and the grill part you cook on.
Yep. I have a bbq that I'm going to test the idea with before I get in to deep with my idea. I'll let you know how it goes. -

Are you using that plank with propane Tyler? Have always wanted to try cedar, we use maple here on charcoal grill and its awesome. Don't know if our cedar same as western and what kind of flavor that would give.
Yeah, the plank is on the propane grill. It's a pretty nice flavor, especially for salmon. -

What about a wood fire?
I think that a wood fire is actually the best....
thats how we cook our shish kabobs.... but not all wood is the same...gotta find fruit trees wood and they burn for a while with a great fire smell (adds to the taste)
I never cook on propane because the taste of propane in the meat when u eat it kills me....charcoal is also a rarity (only when i run out of wood)
For a good steak or shish kabobs, you will always find the time.... -

I was talking to my brother-in-law about this the other day and I came up with a good idea. I'm going to design a hybrid grill. I'm going to pipe gas into the grill, but only as a quick way to start the charcoal.
This should allow me to still be lazy, yet get the flavor that I like.
Hate to be the bubble burster, but if you put the food on before the charcoal has ashed over, your food would be covered in a dark soot...
I use one of these... starts the charcoal (or hardwood lump) very quickly and I don't have to be a pussy and use propane or lighter fluid!

Looks too high tech to eat food with for me!
Actually, it's very easy... some newspaper in the bottom, fill the main part up with the coals of your choice, light the paper and about 10 minutes later, the coals are red hot and ready to cook with. Dump them in your grill and start cooking! -

There's actually a much easier way...Open the lid, turn the burner knobs and hit the light button!

A man after my own heart (lazy and proud of it - at least I'm talking about me, Paul )
