    When the weather gets hot, it's time to bring out the grill and have a BBQ! There is nothing as delicious as a well grilled burger or hotdog on a hot summer day. Except, what makes a perfect grilled food? Food Theorists, I pose this question: Do you grill with charcoal or propane? Is there a difference in taste or quality grilling depending on which you use? That is what I aim to find out today! I take my food very seriously and I won't stop until we all know the RIGHT way to grill!

    For heat control, you use hot areas, i like to pile my charcoal in the middle (peaking @ about 1 in from the grate) and leave the edges with indirect heat. That way you get a nice hot sear, and can cook to term without burning.

    After a couple of decades of being charcoal purest I switched to propane for convenience. It was after camping on in a drought where all wood fires, including charcoal grill were banded. The following year, I bought a propane camp grill and like the convenience of just firing up the grill and cooking almost immediately. Shortly after that I also got rid of all my Colman fuel camping equipment in favor of propane and loved the convenience there as well.

    We’re family, for the longest time, had a grill that was both propane and charcoal for the same surface.
    The briquettes were under the gas burners and would get up to temperature via the gas burning.
    The hotdogs were always grilled first, and then the other stuff was put on.

    Both do different jobs, both work well. I do prefer charcoal, when time permits.

    Reminder that propane grills are far more prone to failure. It's pretty obvious when you consider that the propane grill needs working parts, where the charcoal is just a bowl with some grates. The cheap propane grills though are failing all the time. Charcoal grills eventually rust out, but propane rarely lasts nearly that long.
    Also, I work in junk removal. Propane grills are easily in the top 3 of most common items for us to pick up after mattresses and couches.

I got mine free but I've seen holiday sales for $125, the tank for the first time new is $50 to $60 and $20 to $25 for a refill. I've had my first tank last 1 year grillling like 3 times a week and the second one should last just as long since i don't leave it on way to long like I did originally.

    EDIT2: As it turns out apparently matpat already did talk about if turtles can eat pizza in a film theory, but what i meant was not a theory asking if turtles could eat pizza (They can), but rather how long they would be able to survive eating mostly pizza because I don't think pizza would be good for the turtles to eat over other foods.

    Gas grills are great if you want an easier set up, lower overall maintenance (unless a burner gets clogged), and are fairly new to grilling and don't want a large learning curve, or you're a frequent griller who just doesn't want to use extra time up in prep.
    Charcoal grills are great if you really want to test your skill at grilling, figuring out how much charcoal briquettes to use, how long you will have to light them prior to cooking, and you want a more distinct flavor.
    While I have used both extensively, my personal preference is for charcoal. It's not just about the flavor for me, it's about working the skill I have, preparing not only the grill itself but also what I'll be cooking on it. I generally like to make my own burger patties out of 80-20 ground beef, and season it myself. When I grill a steak, I am going to prep it ahead of time. Hot dogs, I'm using the highest quality I can find, not the cheapest. Chicken, it's going to marinade. And so on, and so forth. If I'm going to put that work into the food, I'm going to put the work into the way it's cooked. The problem I have with a video like this is that there really isn't a right answer, even though in my personal opinion I'm going to lean heavily toward chacoal. It's about your skill level combined with how much effort you're willing to put in combined with ultimately what your goal is in grilling.

    In the future with taste tests like this you’ll get more trustworthy results with a blind triangle test. Don’t tell them what they are tasting for. You give them three samples, two of the same and one different, then ask which one is different. Then ask which they prefer. Then you can tell them what the difference is (not which sample is which just the different cooking method being tested). If you can get a statistically significant number picking out the different sample you know the taste difference is significant. There is some math you have to do there based on sample size to find your p-value but that is the number of correct guesses you need to know it is statistically significant. The subject not knowing what is being tested until after they have tried to guess the different sample and which is their preference also helps to eliminate bias brought into the experiment. But I’d love to see you do more experiments like this.

      "Do you want a charcoal-fuelled, or a propane-fuelled grill?"
      Dzurek Dániel: Depends. Do you want your house to burn down, or to explode?
      Me: Depends, do you want to grill inside with ether and destroy your house? or grill outside with ether and get the cops called on you by your vegan neighbor?

    Charcoal rule number one: Food cooked on a charcoal grill has to be eaten immediately. Saving that food for later causes an aftertaste.

      Why is he lucky, just because his dad is a really successful youtuber? Shouldnt you be happy that you even have a family to begin with, it doesnt matter if your dad or mom is a youtuber or something like that. You should be thankful that you have your family and love them with all your heart.

      Everyone always says the exact same thing. If you're dad was a popular RUclipsr, vs if your dad worked a more common job, would that be cooler? No it wouldn't, because they'd both be the same person

    My own father, as an old school grilling dad who has been grilling on charcoal for about 30 years, actually prefers how long it takes to start up charcoal. It gives him an excuse to leave the house before anyone else and lets him enjoy a couple beers alone while he starts up. I think it's more about the ritual than anything else, it's like a moment of sanctuary

    Despite growing up with my dad using a charcoal grill and being more used to that taste, I don't have a preference when it comes to gas or charcoal!
    Yes, I do like a smokey taste, but overall I just like a good burger or steak.
