Now, via Instapundit.com I see there are the grill wars.
It’s a beautiful day. The family’s in attendance, side dishes and beer in tow. Your sister-in-law brought a trunk full of Super Soakers. It’s BBQ time. Time to kick back in the yard and fire up the … stove?As it happens, it is a beautiful day here on the Farm and Mr. Big Food has fired up one of his large oil drum grills.
Hmm, that doesn’t sound terribly exciting, does it? But that’s basically what you’re doing when you cook out on a gas grill, which is powered by the same largely flavorless fuel as your kitchen stove.
True fact: Cooking on a gas grill is more convenient than cooking with charcoal.
It’s also a lot less special. And, scientifically speaking, it creates less flavorful food.
Charcoal, mesquite and apple wood |
Leaks, celery, onion and oranges in the water pan |
Look at that flavorful smoke! |
That said, Mr. Big Food knows there's a time and a place for gas.
