Gas is for grilling and wood is for Barbecue. Direct flame vs. indirect heat and smoke. There or those who must kill it them selves first, but stocking a cow is boring to me even with a spear made with a pool cue with a steak knife duck taped to it. While I also have this primitive urge I am keeping my indoor plumbing, electronics, toys alike.
Cows, that reminds me, Just think, Do RINO's sleep standing and can you go RINO tipping?
You can get a hotter direct fire with charcoal than with gas however.
