Note: These lists are transcluded from the project's tasks pages.

There is a third category, not mentioned in the article: Wood coal grilling, i.e. burning wood in a separate firebox and moving the hot wood coals under the grill. It is usually preferable to using charcoal.

I would agree. I don't know about it being "preferable", but it is certainly an alternative. Also, lump charcoal could be mentioned as an alternative to briquettes. On a side note, who thinks that asparagus is a commonly grilled food? (at least, more common then most)

Isn't grill also slang for challenging someone? I.E. "Josh took it to Ricky's grill during the debate." Yanksox 21:35, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I came here hoping to find out what all the openings and slots on my grill are used for! guess i'll keep looking...

Is this a joke?

If this is an article on grills then where is the mention of the appliance used to do this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grilling#British_English

What do Americans call the part of the cooker they "broil" things in anyway? A broiler?

???

Yes, it is called a broiler. Josh Thompson 16:11, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image of Gas Grill

The image of the propane grill buried under snow doesnt really capture the "essence" or purpose of the appliance very well. The focus should be the grill itself, not the extreme weather conditions around it. Just about anything else would be better.

I agree. Do you think this CC image I found on flickr suits? http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=9813564&size=o Please let me know if that violates the copyright rules, I don't think it does, but thats why I didn't alter it myself.
Thanks,

Additions and Ideas

Added a piece on portable grills and a comment on the difference between lump and briquets but forgot to sign in before doing so.

I will take some pictures of my own grills (gas, charcoal kettle, portable gas, and portable charcoal) to add to this article.

I am thinking about tackling something about the history of grilling as well as how it plays into the tailgate party culture. Also may include a description of the (in)famous "newspaper grill."

Also, would this article merit a small discussion on charcoal-starting methods?

US-centric

The second para in the lead is mainly about grilling in American culture and should be moved out of the intro. Anybody disagree? Rothery 03:35, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Infrared Section

The infrared section doesn't cite any sources and may be original research. It also looks a bit biased due to stating without citation that it is being used in "finer" restaurants. The parts dealing with it being more "green" especially read like ad copy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.131.241.10 (talk) 17:41, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
