Gas vs. Charcoal Grilling

Gas or charcoal? There’s no wrong answer. Both can turn out incredible meat—the best choice comes down to the flavor, convenience and grilling experience you’re looking for.

WHY CHOOSE CHARCOAL

WHY CHOOSE GAS

Gas grills heat up quickly and make temperature control easy. They’re convenient, consistent and perfect when you want to get dinner on the grill without a lot of extra prep.

WHY CHOOSE CHARCOAL

Charcoal takes a little more time and attention, but it delivers that classic smoky, flame-grilled flavor. It also gives you plenty of heat for creating a great sear.

WHAT ABOUT FLAVOR?

Charcoal naturally adds more smoke and fire-kissed flavor, while gas gives the meat itself and your seasonings more room to shine. Either can produce an incredible result with the right technique.

WHICH ONE IS BETTER?

The one you’ll actually use. Choose gas for speed and control, charcoal for the experience and smoky flavor—or keep both around and enjoy the best of both worlds.

Great grilling starts with great meat. Whether you cook over gas or charcoal, choosing a quality cut and cooking it to the right temperature matters more than what’s underneath the grate.
