After the grill itself, a set of BBQ tools is the next most important item to tick off your shopping list. You need to be able to flip food safely to avoid burns and your standard kitchen utensils might not be long enough to maintain a safe distance from the heat. We’d opt for long-handled tongs and ones with metal tips in case of flare-ups. Ensure the handles are heat-resistant (choose rubber or wood) so your hands don’t get too hot.

You’ll also want something to protect your hands while you’re cooking. Gloves are a better bet than mittens, so you still have proper dexterity. It’s best to go for long gloves when leaning over a searing barbecue and, as these tend to be machine washable, they’ll remain in good condition.

We all know there are different heating and fuel sources that can be used while grilling. Each of these fuel sources have their own set of advantages and disadvantages, with some may possibly alter the overall flavor of the food you cooked. Today, let’s take a closer look at some of the different types of BBQ grills that utilize each of these fuel sources.

1. Charcoal Grills
Charcoal grills have long been a favorite of outdoor cooks for many reasons. A charcoal grill is easy to use, and foodies crave the smoky, rich flavor which charcoal imparts.

All charcoal grills operate with a few basic similarities. Air intake is located toward the bottom of the grill and is adjusted manually. When air comes into the grill, it passes by the lit charcoal and exits through an additional vent at the top of the grill, similar to a wood-burning stove. The more air that’s allowed to enter and exit the grill, the hotter the grill will get.
