Are people so woke/liberal/retarded/ignorant/lazy they can't haul a BBQ home and assemble it?

Of course, they are pushing the propane and pellet grills.

I have lots of grills and smokers here. Some of them I built and have plans for more. All are wood/charcoal.

I don't do propane for grilling. If I wanted that, I would just throw it in the kitchen stove broiler.

It’s a marketing tactic. Probably says for a limited time only. Gives a sense of urgency and FOMO (fear of missing out).

it's the start of the summer grilling season.

also, people need to be able to do at least a little bit of cooking after the power goes out the stove and microwave no longer function...

You're not understanding the reasons for grilling. Propane or not makes no difference. You still get smoke and great meat Temps. You can't get either in a broiler.

I've got electric grill and electric smoker.

Commercial models.

What kind of retard buys consumer grade thin metal grills that needs replacing every couple of years.

I 100% understand the reasons for grilling.

You build a fire. You manage the fire. When the time is right, you put your food on the grill. It is a process.

You don't light your chinese propane grill up to 'stun' and try to cook a chicken or a tri-tip in 10 minutes. That is just wrong, and the excuse for lazy people.

Putting them together is an entire day of aggravation. It's a bitch.
I need a new grill and I just want to get a Coleman camper grill because they are put together.
 Quoting: Ricky Retardo


An entire day of aggravation? I find it 20 minutes of enjoyment. And the first lighting of the fire (not propane) is sheer bliss.

Propane and natural gas are being phased out. The grills will be obsolete and worthless by 2023. Caveat emptor.
 Quoting: CHERNOBLY


They are phasing out wood? Oh, shit, I had no idea.
