Choosing the right barbecue is a big decision for any backyard chef. Whether you're a weekend griller or a year-round BBQ enthusiast, the debate between wood-fired and gas grilling is a hot topic. While both have their benefits, the Big Green Egg offers something truly unique. GP Home Furniture and Appliances in Chilliwack is proud to be the largest Big Green Egg dealer in British Columbia. Here's what you need to know before choosing your next grill.
Wood vs Gas BBQ Grilling: Learn From GP Home Furniture and Appliances
Comparing Grilling on Wood and Gas Barbecues
When it comes to outdoor cooking, the type of grill you use can make a big difference in both flavour and experience. Two of the most popular options—wood-fired and gas barbecues—each bring unique benefits (and a few trade-offs) to the table. Whether you're after that unmistakable smoky taste or seeking weeknight convenience, understanding the differences between these two grilling styles can help you choose the one that suits your lifestyle and cooking goals.
The Case for Wood-Fired BBQs
Grilling with wood or charcoal brings a distinct, smoky flavour that many people love. It creates a more hands-on experience and allows for greater control over the cooking process.
The deep, rich taste that comes from real hardwood lump charcoal is hard to beat. However, wood-fired grills take longer to heat up and require more attention during cleanup.
Why People Love Gas Grills
Gas grills are all about convenience. They start quickly, heat up fast, and make it easy to cook a meal on a busy evening. You can adjust the temperature easily and avoid the mess of charcoal or ash.
The tradeoff is that food cooked on a gas grill may not have the same depth of flavour as food cooked on a wood-fired grill.
The Big Green Egg Grilling Experience
Big Green Egg combines the rich taste of wood-fired cooking with the control and convenience that gas grill users appreciate. This ceramic charcoal grill uses natural lump charcoal, giving your food amazing flavour while keeping moisture locked in. The heavy ceramic walls retain heat, allowing you to grill, smoke, roast, or even bake.
From slow-smoked brisket to perfectly seared steaks or even stone-baked pizza, the Big Green Egg is more than just a grill. It is an outdoor cooking system that transforms the way you prepare food. It heats up faster than traditional charcoal grills, maintains stable temperatures for hours, and is easy to clean and maintain.
