For me, it's the park grill. The best barbecue grill.

I attach one of these baggies, lined with Aluminium with a few little lemon slices in it to my dog when we go walking. I usually cook them up on BBQ's like this in the park.

Dont judge me.

In America we have park grills in every national park and park. They're for the homeless people to burn trash in them for warmth as well as for families to grill on the go.

You have to pay a fee for a licence to use them from the government and you call beforehand and ask them to bring the petrol or a battery.

I like to taste the meat, not the heat friend. That's why I bring my portable propane grill wherever I go just for emergencies like this. You know, I could probably get you a good deal on a deluxe package. I actually work at a propane dealer down in Arlen.

I prefer to taste the subtle intricacies from a nice charcoal grill as opposed to a bland gas grill. Park grills are seasoned with the ashes of thousands of barbecues past, that adds more flavors than any seasoning you can buy at the store. It's literally science

[Anonymous No.14615665]

>>14615618
This. Charcoal is just a cope from people that don't know how to properly season their meat.

[Anonymous No.14615676]

It's easier to put charcoal in a park grill than it is to jogger rig it to accept gas machine inputs.

Now you listen right here, I may not be a high flying city man but I am an honest man. I work for my steak every night and can tell you that nothing produces the same clean meaty flavor like a propane grill. Propane is as american as apple pie and football. When you're hungry and alone on a windy day and can't light your charcoal grill, remember the man who tried to sell you the clean burning fool proof propane.

[Anonymous No.14615691]

>that pic
That's good eats right there boss. Don't need to clean it as it adds to the flavor.

[Anonymous No.14615699]

>>14615691
This. The grill crust is essential to the flavor profile.If you use tinfoil or aluminum foil you might as well just throw your meat on the ground instead because it's ruined.

[Anonymous No.14615717]

>>14615665
In my experience, gas grills can't sear a steak well. any attempt seems to cook it medium rare at best, and medium or beyond at worst. It's possible that there are hotter gas stoves out there, but all I've encountered intimately are the same. I also like a nice smoke with some wood chips, but thats a bit of a separate discussion

That sounds awfully expensive there buddy, doesn't propane cost more than coal?

[Anonymous No.14615907]

>>14615592
Many Freedomburger parks have them.
At least a handful of apartment complexes have the same type (cemented into the ground, a safe distance from the building, NO DO NOT GRILL ON THE BALCONY).

Pilot Rock and several other companies still make them.
They are available if you would like to install one yourself in the back yard; also available with a wheeled base if you don't want it permanently located.

[Anonymous No.14615918]

>>14615872
Not really.
Unless you try to extinguish the charcoal and reuse it, you will burn more than you strictly need to cook, which increases the cost of coal.

why not just clean and season the grill properly before using it? just bring a grill brush and some extra oil

I'd honestly rather bring my own portable grill along. This one is nice, it folds up and is easy to carry with a handle.

[Anonymous No.14617929]

put charcoal in it and light the charcoal on fire. it will get hot and you will be able to cook food on the hot metal grill sitting above the hot coals

[Anonymous No.14618709]

Also a big charcoal mistake is cooking over actual flames and not hot coals. You don't actually want much fire involved.

Just bring some meat, charcoal, a starter, and you've got food for the party.

I have a hibachi for park BBQs. I got the idea from some giant Lebanese family BBQ once, they had like six on the go and it was a fucking heavenly sight, all the women swording up meats and veggies, men all gathering around the coals drinking beers, kids causing havoc.

Meanwhile we had this shitty propane BBQ, and the women lounged around in the sun.

You'll probably need your own fuel, utensils, and desired accessories.
Pretty common to find grill kits for around $25; spatula (useless), tongs (good), skewers (probably workable but suboptimal), and a wire brush (essential).
You may WANT a chimney starter, leather welding gloves, and some oil (and a paper towel or rag to apply it).

Oily newspaper or paper towel, crumple loosely, bottom of chimney starter. Charcoal on top. Light newspaper on fire. Fire is cool.

In about 8 minutes, the top coals will be lit and the inferno will start to die down. Dump the coals onto your cooking area.
Flip the grate down, lowest position.
Let the heat penetrate the grate and burn loose the crust of crap on the grate for about 4 minutes.
Brush the everliving hell out of that grate. Gloves are helpful, unless you're trying to prove to the qt nurse in the burn ward how much of a man you are.
Wipe oil onto the grate. Wait a minute for it to stop smoking.

Put your food on your selected cooking area and turn and move as needed to prevent burning and promote even cooking.

This is a bizzare thread, I have never seen a remotely clean / functional one of these in 30 years in America. From federally funded parks and reserves to little local parks. You need a functional, healthy society for such high trust public items, and that is simply not possible in the USA.

There's usually a toilet available nearby, and a lot of people just don't realize they could use it, so it's practically new.
