Great

Reviewed by Scott (Grilling Enthusiast) from Barrington, IL on Jul 30, 2009

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Grill is flat out great -- between the abundance of useful accessories, ease and speed of lighting (and cleaning), 1 ample contiguous work space, thoughtful design, and great charcoal flavor, I'm thrilled I chose this grill over Weber LPs, let alone any other charcoal grill on the market. With charcoal, you have total control over where you create hot/cold zones...and with the LP starter, you're red hot in under 10 min. I've used it 20+ times now and still on original 16 oz lp tank.

Pros:	Adds Flavor To Meal, Large Grilling Surface, Cooks Efficiently
Best Uses:	For Self/Couple, Great Searing, Large Gatherings, Small Gatherings, Indirect Cooking
