To me - charcoal wins!!! It gives an authentic BBQ flavor that the gas grills just don't have.

Charcoal. And started in a charcoal chimney. I used to thnk it didn't matter how you lit the charcoal. But after buying a charcoal chimney last summer, I changed my mind. A charcoal chimney lights the charcoal faster, more even, and without using petroleum products to fould out flavor of food.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a charcoal chimney?

We did a post on charcoal chimneys in our blog last summer. I have two now, one at home, and one in the camper. They work amazingly well to light charcoal without using lighter fluid.

Charcoal, no question about it. The difference in taste is unbelievable.
I think we had a post about this a few months ago, let me see if I can dig up the thread.

like they say - charcoal for flavor - gas for heat

I agree with charcoal, if I wanted to cook with gas I would just cook on my stove at home.

When the kids are starving I use gas, they don't know the difference anyway. But for me always charcoal, can't beat the flavor. Charcoal chimney's are the best for starting your coals.
