Charcoal Grills

Charcoal barbecue grills are fueled by burning charcoal. Either charcoal briquets or all-natural lump charcoal can be used, and there is in fact some debate among enthusiasts as to which is better. The advantage of briquets is that they are usually uniform in size and burn consistently. On the other hand, advocates of all-natural lump charcoal, claim that it produces a subtle smoky aroma that improves the taste of the food.

There are in fact quite a wide variety of charcoal barbecue grills that you can get.

The most common types are:

Brazier - A charcoal pan made from sheet metal, usually on legs, with a wire cooking grid. The grid may be moved up and down to control the amount of heating.
Hibachi - Similar in design to a brazier, but made from sheet steel or cast iron, and with two independent cooking grids. As with a brazier grill, heating is generally controlled by moving the grids up and down, although some hibachi grills do also have a venting system.
Kettle - A design based on a hemispherical ball with a lid - the original kettle grill was created in 1951 by George A. Stephen, Sr., by sawing a metal buoy in half and adding a dome-shaped lid. Kettle grills contain a cooking grid and a charcoal grid, between which the charcoal is placed, and also incorporate a venting system and legs, as well as coming with a lid. Additionally some kettle designs also include an ash-catching tray, and wheels.
