[Blindtlk] Grilling question

[Marion Gwizdala]

Aaron,
    Perhaps the Weber grill, for some reason, utilizes a different technique 
than convention charcoal grills. Everything that I have read about grilling 
over charcoal is that the cover should be left open. Like your comparison of 
the Weber to a convection oven, a charcoal grill is comparable to a broiler, 
except the heat source comes from the bottom rather than from above. When 
broiling in an oven, the oven door should be left ajar, thus the reason for 
the stop point on the door just after it is opened. I will see what I can do 
about finding an authoritative source on the opened or closed lid! (grin)

Fraternally yours,
Marion
