To me Charcoal gives the meat an extra taste to it so I'd pick that =P.

I grew up with a charcoal grill.  Don't know if I've experienced gas grill food.  These days my grill burns paper and I love it.  Too bad they didn't catch on.  I can grill all season on the junk mail I get.  ;)

I love them both and use both.  Charcoal does give it a better taste, but gas is great if you want it quick.

My mom always used a charcoal grill and food tasted great .. unfortunately I usually don't have the time to wait for the coals to get hot enough to grill on so I use my quick gas grill.  It's ready in just minutes to cook on.

Nothing like the taste of charcoal grilled food,  but I cannot even remember the last time I had food looked on charcoal.  Seems like most use gas because it is quick and more reliable cooking temp etc (but doesn't mean it tastes better!)

I prefer charcoal because I am afraid of the gas grill. There too many reported accidents with the gas grill.

Charcoal is always perfect for chicken and fish because it gives you that nice flavor. But will not be good for beef or steak meat. Steak is best cooked on gas grill it gives it that nice little fire and then you can adjust the heat.

Either one will do for me.  What I REALLY appreciate is a "Smoker."  I love the taste of Mesquite and we buy Mesquite wood to smoke whole chickens.  Finger lickin' GOOD!

Both are good. and the greatest part is I am not cooking, but hubby is.  But here lately I am always doing all the cooking as the weather has not been the greatest. Either it is too windy and dusty or raining or I had not planned for BBQ.  Summer is just around the corner and hopefully the weather is better.

I never tasted gas grilled meat before. I'm assuming it doesn't leave a funny taste on the meat?
