Hooray for grilling! My wife and I (meaning: me) use our grill at least 3x per week during the summer.

I would think a charcoal grill would have more appeal to the primitive male urge. Gas seems more feminine, and electric, of course, is totally girly :-).

Gas grills are for the metro sexual. Charcoal, however is real grilling.

I much prefer charcoal myself, but yes, the grill is my favorite tool for cooking a good meal.

"...and announces to no one in particular, "OK, let's do some grillin'!!"
Mine is, "Baby, get me a grillin' tool (a.k.a. BEER)!"
We grill darn near every night. Beef, pork, chicken, fish, and just about everything else that can be cooked on a stove-top or in an oven.
The true test of a griller is the Beef Brisket. If you can turn the toughest piece of cow into a melt in your mouth BBQ masterpiece, then you have reached the pinnacle of grilling and can hence forth be known as a "Grill Master." Mine takes 7 hours total.

Sorry, but I just don't understand gas grills outside. Why? To cook on a kitchen stove that happens to be outside? Does the meat taste better? Of course not and it damn sure ain't barbecue.
Only a pit with smoldering logs of oak, mesquite, hickory, etc. (ok, charcoal briquettes too, as long as they have bits of a wood in them for flavor, but that's borderline) make barbecue.
As the sign used to say on a South Texas barbecue joint, "If there ain't no smoke, there ain't no barbecue."

One of my top lapses in reasonable thought (or lack thereof):
I had just assembled my big new gas grill and turned on the gas for the initial fire-up. I noticed one of the venturi, or something, was askew so I leaned in to set it right. Dumb move as the gas had now been on a while. My upper thigh pressed the igniter button (imagine that, it was in a different place than my last grill.)
WHHHUUUUUMP!
No nasal hair whatsoever, scorched eyebrows, and burned the underside of my nose...but I was enjoying the best laugh I'd had in a month. The little lady came running out and said the sliding glass door rattled severely and she could see the flash. Then she proceeded to berate me while I stood there chuckling.

Being recently retired, I'm in the market for a charcoal grill.
I've got the time now.
Gas is nice and fast but charcoal is the real deal.

Gas grills..primitive..you have got to be kidding.
Unless you are cooking over wood (maybe charcoal) it is not primitive.
Gas grills indeed. There is no way you can get a good slow smoked pulled pork on gas.

Burgers last night. Maple-soy-glazed wild salmon the night before. Tri-tip sirloin and chicken are on deck for the weekend nights; we'll probably go out tonight.

My wife god bless her sucks at grilling and bbqing... she's a great cook.. but something about putting it on the grill totally perplexes her... her attempts always wind up as Carbon on the outside, cold and raw on the inside.
Now, whether its because she can't figure it out? Or just prefers that she doesn't have to do the cooking when the grill is in use and sabotages herself intentionally I don't know.
I had the honor of watching her and one of her girlfriends light a gas grill once.... they both were lucky to escape with their eyebrows in tact... So for the safety of all involved, if a grill or fire is involved I am the one cooking the main course.

I never understood the point of gas grills - it's like cooking on the kitchen stove. Charcoal grills are where it's at - I love pouring gallons of lighter fluid on the briquets,touching the lighter to them, and WHOOMPH - flames shooting ten feet into the air. I know that's manly because my son and I love to watch this and my wife and daughter stand well away worrying that I'm going to blow myself up!

We might take a grilling on this thread. But weber or not you agree with it, you must admit, it does get to the meat of the matter.

I'm a charcoal grill guy myself. I grill almost year round. I was out on the deck with a winter coat on in february, grilling up a storm. I love grilling, chilling out on the deck. It's nirvana. Gas grills? I guess it's convenient, but I like my charcoal smoker/grill.

I love to grill ... prefer lump charcoal or wood. I don't ususally have a real 'problem' with folks who prefer gas, but in this case there's just something terminally gay about this article:
"Born to Barbecue" apron and announces to no one in particular, "OK, let's do some grillin'!!"
Sounds like "Effin" Kerry: "Can I get me a huntin' license here?"
