i just bought a gas grill (Charbroil) and, yes i'm setting myself up, there is a little left to desire in the flavor department.

someone told me to use some char rocks, but my grill didn't come with any, and when i bought some they told me they might not go in my grill.

is there something in particular about grills the use char rocks? my grill has the grilling surface, and then below that a triangle shaped plate covering two burners.

thanks in advance for any help.

do you not have any friends you could call?

your parents maybe?

or are you that big of a loser that you post on the wolfweb and then sit around and wait for someone to give you information

^^ holy fuck. are you that big of a loser that you sit around and wait for someone to give you a question you think is obvious and then post on the wolfweb about how big a loser they are?

oh wait...

now, will it produce a better flavor to throw some charcoal of woodchips in the grill?

the char rocks are there to simulate coals. the burning gas heats the rocks, the rocks begin glowing and emit infrared heat (which is better to cook meat on).

i would recommend using the char rocks.

i dig wood chips, but i have a gas grill.

and it may be a grill that char rock may not work with.

as much as i dig those hard consanants, i don't want to plug up my burners with alot of ash.

should i just sprinkle some wood chips or charcoal to achieve that smokey flavor?

^ thanks, but i didn't think i could just pile up pumice around my burners. it said not to go more than 1-2 coals thick.

just gotta cook a lot of stuff on it and let the meat juices season your grill.

but lava rocks or something give the juices a thing to soak into, so yes, i would get some.

my grill has the souls of like 10,000 cows and 5,000 pigs soaked into it, and cooks the best meat you will taste.
