When things are on fire you tend to see a bunch of smoke. Just sayin…
Unless it’s a clean burning propane
Taste the meat not the heat.
You don’t, by chance, happen to sell propane and propane accessories?

I've always thought that saying was weird. If I'm specifically grilling, I want to taste the heat. The smoky aroma is what makes grilling special to me. If you just want to taste the meat, it isn't that different to using a pan imo. That's why I like coal grills but prefer a wood fire, though that can be unpractical for some stuff
Using a pan and a propane grill are vastly different imo. I dont dislike charcoal or wood. I think each has thier own place depending on the meal you are preparing. For example I like to make steak and chicken kabobs on a propane grill and burgers and hotdogs on a charcoal.
At the end of the day though seasoning and meat quality take center stage. So its all about what you have access to and can afford.
For me grilling is less about just food preparation and more about the different experience of using a grill and the different taste you got from it. So with propane, even though it makes food prep a lot easier and more consistent, much more convienient, it loses the taste aspect so a big part of the whole thing is missing for me. It's all about what aspects you value and how much.
Or one of those cool decorative indoor ethanol candles
Exactly. It's like being in a house that's on fire, laying down for a nap, and complaining when the flames make it too bright to sleep. You can ignore it and move deeper inside the house to nap like you used to, but there's no fire brigade this time.
