    I use my grill to cook just about anything...I cook pizza on my pizza stone..that ROCKS...I turn half of the burners off and use it like an over and roast chicken, and other roasts...I love grilling veg, and chicken...but m favorite things to grill are good, thick STEAKS and BURGERS...Nothing like the taste of a good beef grilled...

    I also love to either use gas or charcoal. ...sometimes charcoal is the perfect taste on a burger or steak..

    I think you need charcoal for steaks and burgers to get that good old taste!

    Anything! I love grilled veggies like zucchini and onions in big chunks. I love grilled chicken but adore grilled fish. Grilled sardines and mackeral are my fave, oily fish are the best on a grill. Also, grilled apple to have with ice cream is delicious.

    I love grilling, but sliced potatoes with onion are my favorite for the moment. We recently discovered brat burgers, and those are great on the grill.

    Meat of any kind is great on the grill and we do onions, squash, potatoes and a special local recipe from upstate NY, where I hale from is "Speidis". Lamb chunks, marinated in wine and herbs, strung on grill sticks with fruit or veggies. Yuuuum!

    Fish and shrimp, anyway, shape or form on the grill. Also muscles and scallops are great smoked. Ofcourse veggies also.

    Am I the only one who doesn't grill? We haven't owned a grill in almost 20 years. The male grilling gene skipped Randy (his dad used to do a lot of grilling) and I figure that if I am going to be hot while I cook I will do my cooking in the house where the AC is. ;)

    But I do like burgers and hot dogs cooked over charcoal.

    I forgot about the side burner on the grill. I always cook bacon outside, so the overwhelming smell and spatter doesn't cover the kitchen.
