I just watched a episode of Unwrapped on Food Network and saw (for the first time) a restaurant chain named, “Weber Grill”. They cook using real charcoal briquettes in a souped up version of a Weber kettle. This takes...

. It holds more and lasts longer. Finally, if you are really having problems with the fuel not lasting long enough, try using kingsford briquettes. They take les tweaking to last longer. And, with those, do as Darren suggests...

I hope this doesn’t strike everyone as a stupid question, but is it harmful to a gas grill to put charcoal briquettes in it as opposed to the ceramic ones or lava rocks? The reason I ask is because my husband had this grill...

Get a Weber Smokey Mountain as it will make excellent barbecue. It is not difficult to use as it will hold a constant temperature for five or more hours with a minimum of attention. I always use real charcoal not briquettes. It...
