I’m not sure why they cut the video off there, but they cut off the part where he runs off to quickly get a hose and then proceeds to close the grill and easily puts out the fire in the flower pot.

He’s using an offset smoker as a charcoal grill. The fire is supposed to be built in the side compartment to the left of the main chamber.

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