Anybody have an Infrared Grill?
I've got a nice charcoal grill, but am considering getting an infrared one too, merely for the speed and quality. They're supposed to cook food so fast and delicously. Anybody have any experience?

If you're going for convenience, go propane.

Speed? how are you going to drink a couple beers and fool all the inside people that you have all this important manning of the fire stuff going on. The inside folk think you are so busy, that most times they open the door and offer to bring you the seasoning, beer, and what not. Then when the night is done, all the chef compliments go to the barbqer, even from those back in the kitchen who did way more work prepping the other food.

How can you give that gig up?

I never even knew such a thing existed. I just do propane. Good stuff.

Propane is so last year. I have a direct gas line grill, no tank to worry about. Infared is more for searing and stuff, nice indoor grill. Still have my smoker though

Dudes, I live in MN. This will be used for the 6 months when it's -30 below outside and I want a steak. I still have a charcola grill for the summer cooking!

I'm curious about this infrared grill.

Me too, that's why I'm asking. I've done online research, and by all accounts is the bomb, and the best way to cook. It's quick, sears at a super high temp, seals in moisture and flavor.

I'm getting one this week, so I'll let you know.

Yes, I'll still BBQ ribs and pork steaks, low and slow w/ charcoal. But for winter cooking, or just to cook 2 steaks, I'll take delicuous searing for 3 minutes a side and be done! It uses a 3rd the fuel of standard propane grills, and cooks better, by all accounts.
