    Hey folks, I bought this $1300 unit many years ago for the wife for Christmas, I used it 3 times and absolutely hate it as I prefer charcoal flavor. She used it maybe 3 times as she hates to cook. What are the tricks to get a good grilled flavor out of a gas grills. I have heard of people putting some kind of brick or ceramic blocks in the bottom? Or should I just sell it? Suggestions? It just sits tucked away next to the house. I bet I’ve had it for close to 10 years.

              twilliams - I’ve used the Amazen Tube on a gas grill when cooking at other folks homes. Works good, but will leave some ash behind.

                Agree with the tube smoker and pellets. It helps, but cannot replicate what you get using charcoal. I have a gas grill too - it just sits like yours. I use the tube in the pellet smoker too. 90% of the time, it’s the Big Green Egg or ggf. Kamado Joe.

                  twilliams I had one like it and bought it for similar reasons. Liked the convenience, but not the flavor. Donated it to a local college fraternity, I didn’t have to offer twice and they were here with a pickup and help.

                      add wood chips in foil and place hear burners, helps give that bit of charcoal you seem to be lacking
