Angus, veal, venison! The dark meats of The Force are they.

Who's "THEY"?!

I'm pretty sure Vader would stay away from anything that grills meat....

Try to find a painter friend as well. This looks cool, but a bit on the plain side. It desperately needs some detail paintwork on the main body.

Good point. You are very correct.

Yet I still decline to voice a penchant for incendiaries. If need be, I can go with raw. ;)

Nothin' beats the good clean reliable cookin' power of propane, n' propane access'ries.

No, but really, charcoal all the way. The simpler setup aside, I think the meat just tastes much better off of these. Anything that can't be cooked on a grill can be cooked indoors on the range top.

@Wilson Rothman: And that's why barbecue blogs will never get the same respect as barbecue "old-media".

After all, you don't see The Texan Journal of Barbecue and Grilling Quarterly posting such piffle. Rather, they always use a tasteful pencil sketch depicting scenes of the American West such as cattlemen driving steers to market or romantic images of cowboys around the campfire.

Gizmodo really needs to class itself up if it is going to be regarded the same as the Texas BBQ Quarterly or even more mainstream periodicals like Omaha & Kansas City Barbecue Digest.

The stripped down Weber kettle grill. No frills except for a lever at the bottom to empty the ash.

Plus, it's the only barbecue endorsed by the ASPCA.

@Thangka: I always think of Hank Hill whenever I hear this debate. I'm honestly surprised the propane industry never got "him" to do ads for them (like the old Simpsons ads for Butterfinger).

I don't grill very much, but whenever I do (or someone else does), I think of good ol' Hank Hill.
