Charcoal grills are outdoor cooking devices that use charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal as their primary fuel source. They are popular for their ability to impart a distinct smoky flavor to food, making them a favorite among barbecue enthusiasts. Charcoal grills come in various sizes and designs, including kettle, barrel, and portable models, catering to different cooking needs and preferences. To use a charcoal grill, the charcoal is ignited and allowed to burn until it reaches a consistent temperature. Cooking can be done directly over the coals or indirectly by placing food away from the heat source. Proper ventilation is essential for maintaining temperature and ensuring even cooking.
