On some weekend when a family decides to entertain neighbors and friends with a party, there is usually a complement of various kinds of barbecued meats to go around. For the party giver, the thing is to both feed guests and have a good time, to chill out and appreciate things and people. Drinks, a well appointed outdoor setting and music complete the set of physical basics, with conviviality and bonding rounding off the event in terms of spirit.

A barbecue grill is the inanimate star of the show, and people are usually proud to show it off, or talk about its merits. The great neighborhood shindigs are not complete without custom built bbq grills. After everything is said and done, they are some of the most recognized primitive appliances for Americans, things that are fondly remembered.

These are the types of grills with great commercial applications. Restaurants have them built to specifications and make them do most of the work cooking tons of great food. Grilling steaks and burgers is one mainstay for most dining places, some of which can be real barbecue venues.

Well known for barbecuing, these things are really used for a class of cooking that is as old as time. Restaurants employe them not just for grilling, but for boiling, flaming, frying and anything that needs good cooking heat to be well done. Many chief cooks are among the best practitioners of grill based cookery, and these will have specially designed ones that they use exclusively for special treats.

Ovens and gas fueled stoves have their disadvantages as well as advantages over the older style of cooking over open heat fires. Ovens are good for even overall roasts or baking, with whole chickens, for instance. Gas fueled stoves are more versatile and have more controllable heat.

When custom built, grills will have all the advantages of stoves and ovens. For example, they can be used for baking with the use of oven style baking boxes made of iron. Cooking over open flames does not mean that the cook or user will have problems about extreme or harmful heat, not with modern designs.

There are also great installations that use levers, chains and pulleys that can handle large amounts of pork, beef and whole chickens. They automatically turn the roasting meat to have an even roast. Again, the believers in this system of cooking know that flames from charcoal is really controllable in a very creative way.

Many experts have come to the conclusion that roasts are ultimate healthier than food that have been cooked over stoves or ovens. The great chefs of the last century have often charcoal fires and ovens, and use stoves only for more mundane tasks. For open flame techniques, taste is also the premium, because there are no non natural chemicals involved.

There are a couple of charcoal fuel types used for cooking over the flames. True charcoal remains the most challenging in terms of skills, because seasoned barbecuers are identified by how they are able to use this type of fuel well. Charcoal briquettes burn out faster but provide an even bed that provides even flames that are easier to handle. But in the end all agree that they help cook better tasting meals.
