Outdoor BBQ grills and smokers can use a variety of fuels, including charcoal, wood pellets, propane, and natural gas. Some BBQ smokers and grills have the ability to use multiple types of fuel, allowing for greater versatility.
A BBQ grill and a smoker are two different types of outdoor cooking equipment. BBQ grills are designed to cook food quickly over high heat, while smokers are designed to cook food slowly over lower heat, resulting in a smoky flavor.
Smokers offer a number of benefits over BBQ grills, including the ability to slow-cook large pieces of meat, such as brisket or ribs, to tender perfection. The slow-cooking process also imbues the meat with a deep, smoky flavor that cannot be achieved with a BBQ grill.
