Anyome been using the infrared grill? Thoughts/opinions on them. I know people are gonna say charcoal or bust but unless I'm slow smoking I prefer the ease of propane.

I LOVE my infared grill, but that is because I am always in a hurry, so I wouldn't say the slow cooking is what it does lol.

I'm lazy and hate having to use so much charcoal just to cook two steaks. Gas is waaaay easier.

Smoking about the only thing charcoal/wood needed for IMO

Gotta factor in TASTE bro.

Meh. Never really noticed a difference. Used charcoal for years. Made the switch about 5 years ago and ain't looking back

Once I finally move, hopefully by years end, first purchase will be a smoker

You won't regret it. My dad always used them and I use them. They're solid performers.

Charcoal or hardwood chunks FTMFW.

After looking at some Napoleon Infrared grills they look pretty sweet but man dat price tag $$$$. My dad's gas grill has some plates above the burner that you can put wood chips in but we have never used it.

After several years of eating from a gas grill I was at my buddies house and they have a charcoal grill. Oh man, I forgot what I missed out on. When I move into a house I'm going to pick up a charcoal grill and a smoker a plus side of charcoal grills is that they aren't too expensive.
