Question

Is It Healthier To Grill With Gas or Charcoal?

Answer 1

That depends on how you grill.  A gas grill will not infuse meats with flavor like cooking with charcoal, but if you over grill with either one and get a burnt exterior, you will be ingesting possible carcinogens.

Either one can be healthy if you moderate the heat level and you do alot of the grillling using indirect heat. (ie, the food isn't directly over the flame)

Happy grilling,

Answer 3

Gas.Charcoal has a lot of Cancer Causing Carbon that tends to get transferred to whatever you're cooking, no matter how careful you are.But, many would argue that it makes for a much better flavor.
