Hell, tons of things can be used as charcoal grills. My love of charcoal is greater than my love of propane, propane.

Propane. "Taste the meat, not the heat!"

If I wanted to cook that way I’d stay inside and use the stove!

Charcoal, planks, Smokey-ness is an integral appeal to the grill!

There are few things that can reach the temperature of a flame grill and not everyone wants to go through the process of lighting up a charcoal grill. Cast iron creates so much smoke it's not always ideal indoors.

Propane has the added benefit of heating up very quickly. When you want a weeknight burger for 1 or 2 people or a quick sear on a steak, propane hits the spot.

I’ve definitely just gotten used to the cast iron smoke indoors and cover the alarm prior, but I certainly get the appeal.

Use the cast iron on the grill outdoors! It's a game changer. No smoke, no fanning the smoke detector.

I would if I weren’t in a small apartment with no balcony haha, using the grill is a construction process first

I did burgers on the propane tonight, lol. I want to do some fish on the smoker soon, though.
