Never will there be any comments regarding your technological incompetence sir.

"The process of grilling must also be defined in terms of the fuel used. There are several different types of grills, but gas and charcoal are by far the most common. They are also the source of the great grill debate: efficiency versus flavor (and don’t we know it). Today, gas grills represent about 60 percent of sales to household consumers. It is clear that they have their advantages, the most touted being ease of use, not having to add more fuel during long cookouts, and a juicy end product
. Grilling purists, however, argue that hardwood charcoal gives a better flavor, and a smoky, drier character
. The fuel source for charcoal grills has been recognized for at least five thousand years. No one is certain who discovered charcoal, but evidence of early use has been found all over the world.
What most consumers may not know is that charcoal is actually wood; it is created by heating wood to high temperatures. Charcoal does provide a distinctive flavor that is not easily reproduced.
And with the use of hardwoods like hickory, cherry, and mesquite, the flavor profile of the final product may have infinite variety
. It is a tough decision for many people:
the convenience of a gas grill
against the flavor of charcoal.”
In the context of this and the evolution of mankind – how many non gas users continue to scrape their knuckles whilst walking?
Finally – let’s hope that you don’t use Biomass briquettes - they are made from agricultural waste
