Gas or Charcoal for grilling?

Barry said:

I personally like the flavor charcoal adds to meats and corn on the
cob.

Gas is fine too, but it doesn't seem to add any flavor.

When lighting charcoal, I always let the flames die out before I add
the meat and shut the lid.
otherwise... you will taste the lighter fluid.

Some brands of charcoal also impart not so pleasant flavors.

[censored]. Ya gotta wait until the coals are covered with white ash before
you put your food on.
If not, your meal will taste like lighter fluid because there's still fluid
*IN* that black-colored charcoal.

However, I don't worry about that 'cause I use lump & start it in a charcoal
'chimney' with a few crumpled sheets of newspaper. Don't have newspaper??
Whaddya think the supermarkets put that stack of weekly circulars right by
the door for??

Heehee. But I'm serious.

You're supposed to use a chimney with lump and newspaper - well, sometimes
we use wood that isn't preburned; it just takes a little longer to ignite.
Anyway, that's how a good fire is supposed to be done. If someone is using
briquettes and fluid, I can smell the rancidity a block away. It's nasty
stuff.

Even putting that [censored] into my Weber Kettle is out of the question.

Like a civilized person.
I seldom buy lump because I just can't afford it. I get briquets when
they are really cheap, but I use a lot of well seasoned hickory wood,
as my sister lives on an acre of mostly shagbark hickories.

It's 2007. There is no excuse for anyone to ever use naptha to start
charcoal.

I've been using a chimney with charcoal briquettes. We want to try some
lump this weekend. Is there anything different to do with the lump?
Just newspaper and the chimney right? Get it going and dump into the
grill, let it go white and I'm good to go?

Looking forward to grilling outside again. It's been a while. We just
got some new patio furniture and are getting some outdoor heaters so we
can actually be comfortable sitting outside.

I went on a fishing/camping trip with a friend of mine some 30+ years
ago and we made the mistake of using ordinary gasoline as a charcoal
lighter. What a learning lesson that was! The fumes kept coming out
the dirt and flaring up for over an hour... the food was uneatable due
to the taste of gasoline. I wish we'd had some good ol' charcoal
lighter that day. 🙂

You don't even have to let it go white. With lump there's no nasty
chemicals to burn off first. As soon as it's well lit you can dump it out
and start cooking.

Those are not the same thing. Just because "the flames die out," does
not mean the petroleum distillate is burned off.

If you made an effort to use reasonable grammar, capitalization,
punctuation, etc. you might get a better reaction.
