Wood Pellet Grill
Outdoor grill: Gas? Wood pellets? Charcoal? Other?
I've got a lousy gas grill, and need another. Or could I convert and just start throwing charcoal or wood pellets into the bottom of what I've got? - setting the coals in a tray?
My urge is to get gas again. But I really need foolproof and low maintenance - because my wife uses this and I can't keep her away from it and can't get her to take good proper care of it.
I don't know why the gas grill I've got won't work. I just changed the regulator because I thought that was it, but it isn't. (Worked great on first lighting... wouldn't start next day.) Or am I the fool?
Before this lemon I had a Charmglow that survived 20 years! I just replaced the burners every few years. So I think I know how to take care of these things.
Any suggestions?
Lots of good suggestions for breathing new life into your current grill. You don't mention how much grilling surface you need, but your comment about low maintenance brought the Weber Q to mind, should you decide to replace it.
They offer a number of models in various sizes, and since the design actually uses the shell of the grill as the surface on which to vaporize the juices (and create the grilled taste we all love), it's very easy to keep clean. We're into the second grilling season with ours and love it.
Great results have become pretty automatic. Heat it on high for ten minutes to get the grilling surface searing hot, then reduce it to medium for grilling things like steaks, burgers, boneless chicken breasts, pork chops, etc. For grilling times we use the cookout calculator at charcoalbob.com. Enter the details of what's grilling and it gives you instructions for how to grill things like steaks so that everything comes off the grill at the same time, cooked the way you want it.
My only question would be trying to reuse a gas grill with charcoal, since they are designed to work differently and it might be hard to get consistent results.
Hope you find a solution that will have you grilling again soon.
