The Do's
Great value grill: Someone please add :)

The Dont's
Don't play with the food on the grill. Flip it once (or twice if need be), that's all.

Be careful. Once your grill gets used you can have one heck of a grease fire and destroy your grill.
I singed my face as a 10 year old (but that was leaving fires on while closing tank valve instead of closing valve then lighting new fire to burn out excess)

So who thinks this is a medium? https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=452.msg2038179#msg2038179
You always eat raw meat?
 Does it taste good?
  I found cooking your meat to have a better taste vs raw meat!  ::)

Now July 4th on it's way, be on the lookout it, many sales, from Lowe's, home Depot to Costco, Amazon, Wal-Mart and many other stores.
   You want a gas grill or propane tank? 2 burners? Or three ? And side racks ?

Was just in walmart tonight they had a nice display of grills outside and many of them for a fairly decent price.
 I guess look for one grill with 3 and propane( most can use propane and or gas.) and then shop it around to find the best price!
   Or just hang around here for the deals to come in.

Pellet grilling is more expensive but the flavor is incredible. Every chicken comes out so moist and delicious with very little effort.

So I have a Char-Broil Infrared 3 burner gas grill.
The infrared grates have these tiny little holes, which is the main point of infared, but they are always getting clogged, and designed in a way making it very annoying to clean.
does anyone have experience in swapping the infared grates for standard grates?

nothing so outrageous but grilled peppers  and squash are also great
just need some salt, pepper  and olive oil
I started doing this as well. I also include portobello mushrooms with the veggies.   Great side dish

Onions too. Don't need any salt or anything, just plain onions on the grill. (Or George Foreman / grill pan if you're using that)
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

i do green and yellow zucchini,onions,mushrooms and eggplant on a low flame for a good 30-45 mins. Season with oil, onion powder, garlic powder, bbq sauce, ketchup, paprika, black pepper and bbq rub. It’s out of this world.

I'm considering to buy a pallet grill. It will be my first grill, but I have some experience grilling. from watching review videos I can't see the fire. Is it much diff then gas grills? does it longer to grill on it? is it more suitable for smoking?

What are those black gloves that people use when grilling? Does that actually block the heat?

I've only used my pellet grill for smoking. I should try direct heat once.

Which pellet do you have?
Try this https://www.grillgrate.com/shop-grillgrates/standard-grillgrates/pellet-grills/
For direct heat grilling on your pellet.
