Hello, dear barbecue friends! Today I want to tell you about the advantages of the charcoal grill over the gas grill. I know many of you prefer the gas grill because it’s faster, cleaner, and easier to use. But are you willing to give up the incomparable taste and authentic grilling experience that only a charcoal grill can offer? I don’t believe!

Here are some reasons why the charcoal grill is still the king of grilling:

  • It gives the meat a smoky flavor that no gas grill can replicate. This is because the charcoal is made from natural materials such as wood or coconut shells, which release different flavors when burned. A gas grill, on the other hand, only burns propane or butane, which have no particular flavor.
  • It is cheaper to buy and operate. A charcoal grill usually costs less than a gas grill and also uses less fuel. A bag of charcoal is enough for several barbecues, while a gas bottle will quickly run out. Also, charcoal is easier to find and store than gas cylinders, which are often heavy and bulky.
  • He’s more fun! A charcoal grill requires more skill and attention than a gas grill, but that’s also part of the fun. It’s a great feeling to light the fire, spread the embers and regulate the temperature. You feel like a real grill master who knows his craft. A gas grill, on the other hand, is like a stove top: you just turn a knob and wait for the meat to cook. Where’s the challenge in that?

I hope I was able to convince you with these arguments that the charcoal grill is still the best choice for a successful barbecue. Of course everyone has their own preferences and there are also situations where a gas grill may be more practical. But if you’re looking for the ultimate BBQ treat, there’s only one answer: charcoal or corn cobs!

Best regards from the ZWEEnHALB!
