> Geez, everyone's got a gas grill. Charcoal is definately the way to go. Try throwing some mesquite or a dead rosemary branch on a gas grill to get some flavor going (or flavour for our non-American grillers). Can you do it? No! You might as well be using an electric grill.

> Assembly time? Charcoal grill - under ten minutes, very little chance of killing one self. Gas grill - it appears to be over three hours with a slight chance of dying from a sudden explosion. Don't believe me? You been to Boulder recently?

Charcoal grill prep time before cooking: (placing briquettes, adding fluid, waiting for it all to ash over) 20 - 30 min.

Gas Grill prep to cook time: 5 minutes

How do you turn off a charcoal grill? suffocate it and wait a couple few hours.

How do you turn off a gas grill? turn off the gas and let it cool down; it will be cool to the touch by the time you're done eating.
