We'all like to grill year round in Dixie. Why not? It was 65 degrees here today!
We grill all sorts of critters in the conventional hot-fire direct-heat way, but here in East Carolina, we especially love our "pig-pickins" ... wonderful community affairs starring a slow-roasted whole-hog, skin and all, affectionately mopped during the process with our justly famous vinegar-based barbecue sauce.
Mercy-me, but we do love that pork barbecue! Pulled or chopped.
Ya'll really should come down to a pig-pickin with us sometime. We'll handle the hush-puppies, stewed taters, collard greens and coleslaw. Ya'll bring the banana puddin'.

you guys are making me hungry! i have a brother out in west tex and he makes a mean brisket with that local bean bush for fuel too. and ole griz ... i am only 4 hours south of ya and i'll bring the tater salad!!
I dont grill out much. We are still looking for the marinade you said you use from a previous post. I cant remember the name right now but the wife is suppose to have it wrote down somewhere and looking for it.
Happy Grillin
Charcoal is the best for flavor, but in the winter I sometimes go to propane for the advantage of getting it done quickly. The secret to gas is not to clean the grill. You can clean the cooking surface (grate), but let the char-rocks (or whatever your grill uses) get caked with grease and fat.
Used to be able to find real charcoal (not the brickettes) around here, but I haven't seen it for several years now. That was the best I've ever found!
For you charcoalers, I found a charcoal starter made by Weber that you just stuff two sheets of newspaper in the bottom and your coals are ready in 10 - 15 minutes. Far superior to the one Mal-Wart has.
I love to "Q" myself I do however go to the propane in the winter sometimes depending on the time I have. You can litterally "Q" anything!! I use a cheap $50 "Q" and it works great, but when it wears out I am getting a Weber. Jack.
We BBQ year round here. I tell ya's it gets chilly though from Jan-March. When it gets that cold, or raining, I'll pull the BBQ right up to the patio doors on the back deck, just open the door and away we go.
I love dead stuff on my BBQ year round. When we have time, mainly in the summer we use a Weber charcoal grill. Mmmmm love the taste.
My propane sits one step out on the back deck and that is what we use most of the time. Lasts nights venison tederloin were AWESOME.Mmmmm
