BBQ Construction - Why The Design Matters?
BBQ construction has evolved over the ages
The mere mention of barbeque brings water in the mouth of millions of people around the world. During summers, organizing BBQ parties in the backyard and enjoying hot and juicy steaks and hamburgers made on a grill can be the dream of all party lovers. The art of BBQ is very old started very early in the road to civilization with man learning to cook meats of animals after making a fire and cooking them with direct heat and smoke. With passage of time and advancement of technology, there have been a lot of changes in the way grills are made and the features that are being provided in different types of grills. BBQ construction has undergone a sea change in the last few decades and today they are far more convenient and effective than they were earlier.
BBQ construction using the heat of the gas
Most people desirous of BBQ food go for gas grills these days. These grills are so designed that they make fire using propane gas contained in a small tank attached with the grill. There are burners that light up eve n on windy days making it easy for the BBQ dishes to be made. Some of the gas grills do not come with attached gas tank and one can make use of the natural gas used at home to prepare BBQ on such grills. In fact, most people do not go for a refill of the tank provided and utilize the natural gas coming to their home when they organize a BBQ backyard party. Some people say that BBQ made on gas grill does not have the flavor of the one prepared over a charcoal grill. While it is true that smoking is not possible with gas grill, it is certainly very convenient and prepares BBQ dishes very quickly.
BBQ construction with charcoal grills
This type of cooking can be termed as the one utilizing direct heat coming from the fire of the charcoal pieces that are kept under the grills. This system of cooking may look archaic to some but those who relish the taste of the BBQ dishes made with a charcoal grill know that this is the real BBQ. The taste of dishes cooked with a charcoal grill is not only different from the taste of dishes made over a gas grill, they also have more juices and the meat is well cooked from all sides. The smoky flavor that gets inside the meats with charcoal grill is hard to explain but makes up for the fact that these grills are expensive and also time consuming. Firing up charcoal is not as easy as lighting fire with gas and it requires waiting for 30-40 minutes before one can keep the meat over the charcoal grill.
BBQ construction using electricity
These BBQ grills are very modern and safe to use as they employ the heat generated with electricity and produce no fire. They are great to use as they are lightweight and can be easily carried to outdoors but their main disadvantage lies in the fact that the taste of the BBQ made with these grills is not liked by everyone.
Portable BBQ construction
These are modern innovations that can run on either gas or charcoal. They are easy to be carried along whether in the backyard or the front garden as they have small wheels. These grills are also loved by those who love to throw outdoor parties. The downside of these grills is that they are small in size and you might not find them ideal when you have to cook BBQ for a large number of friends.
BBQ construction for your requirement
Ultimately it is your choice that matters. However, you must make sure that the BBQ grill you choose is not only portable but also durable. A lightweight grill is always better than a heavy one even if it means you cannot throw party for 50 of your friends at a time.
