Charcoal Grills are outdoor cooking appliances that use charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal as fuel to cook food. When ignited, the charcoal burns, generating heat that cooks the food placed on the cooking grate above. Charcoal grills are known for imparting a distinctive smoky flavor to grilled food. They come in various sizes and styles, including kettle grills, barrel grills, and kamado-style grills.
