So we've got this new grill and it has some infrared areas. What's the difference between infrared and regular grilling? All I really know is that it holds more moisture and there's less shrinkage of the meat. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The biggest difference is the ability to get to insane temperatures. So you can sear very quickly which is great for a steak. No so great for chicken.

It gets very hot, and heats very even, corner to corner. I bought a Charbroil infrared at Lowes last summer and I'm very pleased with it.

I cook everything on it. Fast grilled foods come out the best; like steaks, burgers, chicken breasts, tuna. But I've even slow cooked ribs and whole chickens and they come out good. I still use my old standy charcoal grill occassionally, but not too often.

It had a natural gas conversion kit and I connected it to my city supplied natural gas. No more propane tanks!

Yea, we have a natural gas grill hooked directly into a line coming out of the house. It's fricking sweet.

I bought the Charbroil infrared grill this summer and it does get pretty hot. You also don't have to worry about flashups.
