Being a follower of the traditional barbecue with firewood takes 2 hours prior preparation I turned toward to the gas grill. It learns the kitchen and vegetables are available anyway. Superb. Just a caveat on the barbecue party is poor. I regret not having taken just a larger grill. For the number of people to enjoy (12) I confess I did not understand how we could get there. We are 2 and I get to occupy the entire surface of the griddle with vegetable shandy !!!
