The Charcoal

Having the right charcoal is just as important as having your Americana Grill. Try to resist the urge to buy the first bag of charcoal on the shelf. The basics of charcoal is there are two main types lump and briquettes. The type of charcoal you get will affect how hot the charcoal burns inside the grill, and how your food tastes.

Lump Charcoal is generally considered the better option for grilling. The main benefits of this charcoal is that it burns at high heat and is clean-burning. Lump charcoal is made from burning wood with minimal oxygen for a long period of time. The result of this process is the thick chunks(Lumps) of carbon, which means you can grill with high heat and get that desired seared in grill lines.

Another benefit of lump charcoal is it's not made with fillers, which eliminates an oily taste and unpleasant smells. The use of wood gives you greater variety in flavors such as pecan, oak, and hickory.

Charcoal Briquettes are known for being made with a combination of materials such as sawdust, coal dust, and other fillers. This makes briquettes a cheaper option for charcoal grilling and generally easier to light. Match light briquettes have already been treated with lighter fluid, which is what makes it easier to light but can leave an aftertaste on the food. Briquettes are also known for keeping a consistent grilling temperature and can be found in different flavors like hickory and mesquite. The only downside to this charcoal is the messy ash that is left behind after grilling.

Gas v Charcoal

“Should I grill with gas or with charcoal?”

That is the question every griller must make. Gas grills can look quite impressive and bolster all sorts of new gadgets and high-tech instruments for temperature control. However, gas grills lack a key fundamental benefit --taste! If you grill with charcoal, you understand what we mean. There is no other taste or smell like that of grilled food over a charcoal flame.

Charcoal grilling is affordable and easy to use which is more inclusive for new grillers. There aren't any complicated instructions on setup or the fear of not correctly hooking up the gas. Charcoal grilling is a straightforward way to grill some of the best-tasting food one has ever had. The taste of charcoal-grilled food just cannot be replicated by gas grilling.

We are glad you asked. It may not look like it but lump charcoal, is made from wood. So, some of the flavor profile of whatever wood was used to make the charcoal (like oak or hickory) is enveloped in the food as the charcoal burns and smokes. Gas grills, on the other hand, can have the unpleasant aftertaste of chemical or lighter fluid.

“Why?”

If you grill, you already get it. There is simply no contest that charcoal grilling produces some of the best tasting food that will ever be eaten. If you aren’t a big griller, don’t take our word for it. Pick up one of our grills online or at one of our retailers and test it for yourself.
