Unlike wood grills, there's no need to wait for charcoal to ignite and reach the desired temperature. With a gas grill, you can start cooking immediately. Additionally, gas grills are easier to clean but do require much more maintenance compared to their wood counterparts. Arteflame grills use no valves, switches or gimmicks of any kind that can break.

It worked exactly how I expected, and people love to see the Arteflame not only for the delicious food that comes from the plate but also call it a real eye-catcher.
So far I love my Arteflame. Did I mention it’s my favorite cooker, and I own a Yoder, an Egg, a gaser, a flat top griddle, a Smokey Mountain, CampChef stove, and two kettles. My favorite way to use the Arteflame is using the riser and cooking on natural stone over a hot open flame.
Unequaled quality of materials and fabrication added to a wonderful design. Very easy to control cooking temperature by moving food to a hotter or cooler section of the plate as needed. I’ve used the rotisserie and pizza oven and both work well.
GASSCHOUM VS HOLZFEIERSCHOUM

taste of wood-fired grilled food
But why is the taste of wood-fired grilled food so exceptional? There are two key elements at play here: searing and smoke flavor. Searing locks in the juices and creates a mouthwatering caramelized crust on your food, enhancing its flavor and texture. And let's not forget about the unmistakable aroma of smoke that infuses your food, giving it that irresistible smoky flavor that you crave.
Now, let's talk about gas grills for a moment. It's important to note that the gas used in your grill is the same gas that powers city buses. Just think about it. Grilling on gas means your food is being exposed to the same fumes as a city bus exhaust! Do you really want that unpleasant smell lingering on your food? We're guessing not.
So, if you're serious about taking your grilling game to the next level and indulging in the lovely taste of wood-fired grilled food, it's time to make the switch. Say goodbye to compromise and hello to flavor perfection. Get yourself a wood-fired grill today and ignite a world of culinary possibilities. Your taste buds will thank you!
WHY IS A GREAT SEAR IMPORTANT?
When proteins and carbohydrates (sugars) are heated together, the Maillard reaction occurs, which is essential for developing rich and complex flavors in food.
Steakhouses sear over wood at 1,000°F to properly sear the food and enhance its flavor. Arteflame Grills excel at reaching these high temperatures and are perfect for achieving that coveted sear. The intense heat generated by wood or charcoal creates a beautifully caramelized crust on the food, resulting in a more enjoyable dining experience.
gas grills heat food indirectly
Gas grills heat food indirectly and are not well-suited for proper searing as they typically don't reach the high temperatures required. Although some high-end gas grills have sear burners, they are often small and limited in their capacity.
For those looking to truly indulge in the taste of barbecued food, charcoal and wood grills are the superior choice. The combination of their intense heat and the Maillard reaction guarantees a more flavorful and satisfying meal. So, if taste is your priority, opting for a charcoal or wood-fired grill is the way to go.
DE KEY BIS GREAT STEAKS
Wann et drëm geet de perfekte Sear op Fleesch z'erreechen, ass et wichteg d'Aschränkungen vun de meeschte Gasgrillen ze verstoen. Obwuel dës Grillen d'Uewerfläch vun Ärem Iessen sécher "braune" kënnen, kämpfe se dacks fir déi héich Temperaturen z'erreechen, déi fir eng optimal Seieren néideg sinn.
De Prozess vun der Braunung, bekannt als Maillard Reaktioun, fänkt ëm 350 ° F un. Wéi och ëmmer, fir wierklech déi bescht Resultater z'erreechen, muss d'Temperatur 500 ° F iwwerschreiden. Leider gëtt d'Grillen bei enger niddereger Temperatur zu exzessive Kachen vum Interieur vum Fleesch resultéiert, well de Braunprozess ze laang dauert.
Wat d'Searing vun der einfacher Brauning ënnerscheet ass d'Uewerflächentwässerung an d'Krustheet déi d'Liewensmëttel vermëttelt. Dëst schaaft e wënschenswäert Kontrast an der Textur tëscht der baussenzeger Krust an dem zaarten Interieur. Steakhouses sear hir Liewensmëttel bei 1.000 ° F; wann Dir wëllt Steakhouse Qualitéit, Dir braucht Steakhouse Temperaturen.
erreechen Temperaturen iwwer 1.000 ° F
Wann et drëm geet fir ze schaarfen, ass en Holzkuel oder Holzgefeiert Grill essentiell. Puer Grillen kënnen Temperaturen iwwer 1.000 ° F erreechen, déi intensiv Hëtzt ubidden, déi néideg ass fir dee begeeschterten Sear z'erreechen.
Wann Dir no engem versatile Grill sicht, dee bei héijen Temperaturen schaarf an d'Bequemlechkeet an d'Liichtegkeet vun engem Gasgrill ubitt, kuckt net méi wäit wéi den Arteflame. Dësen innovative Grill kombinéiert dat Bescht vu béide Welten, fir Steakhouse-Searing Temperaturen z'erreechen, déi souguer déi vun traditionelle Holzkuelgrillen iwwertreffen.
Also, wärend déi meescht Gasgrills fäeg sinn d'Liewensmëttel ze braunen, d'Temperaturen erreeche fir e richtege Seieren ass eng Erausfuerderung. Fir déi, déi den ultimativen Searerfarung sichen, ass en Holzkuel oder Holzgefeiert Grill recommandéiert.

HIGH TEMPERATURE SEARING
FOR STEAKHOUSE QUALITY STEAKS
Steak aficionados, listen up! When it comes to achieving that perfect sear on your favorite cut of meat, the choice of equipment is vital. Steak restaurants rely on gas broilers capable of reaching scorching temperatures of 800°F - 1200°F or, even better, grill over a wood fire at these same temperatures.
To truly replicate the mouthwatering sear commonly found in steakhouses, it is essential to ensure that your gas grill can reach a minimum temperature of 800°F++. However, it's important to note that gas grills meeting these temperature criteria are relatively rare.
In contrast, Arteflame grills are known for their ability to generate intense heat, exceeding 1,000°F. These high temperatures are precisely what you need to create that sought-after edge-to-edge sear on your steak. So, if achieving a seared masterpiece is your goal, an Arteflame grill may be the ideal choice for you.
Remember, when it comes to grilling perfection, don't settle for anything less than the optimal temperature range. Whether you opt for a gas grill that can reach these high temperatures or choose the reliability of an Arteflame, the key is to ensure that your grilling equipment can deliver the intense heat required for a flawlessly seared steak.
SEARING VS BROWNING,
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
Browning is a culinary technique that holds immense power when used correctly. However, it must be approached with precision and care to ensure the desired results. Striking the perfect balance between achieving a beautifully browned exterior while avoiding overcooking requires a deep understanding of the culinary arts.
When it comes to browning meats, the Arteflame reigns supreme. Its ability to generate intense heat allows for the quick searing of the surface, creating a delectable crust. This method is particularly suitable for tender cuts such as steaks and chops, as it guarantees a perfect balance of browning and maintaining the desired temperature within, resulting in a succulent, mouthwatering dish.
Conversely, when dealing with tougher cuts like brisket, the reverse searing method proves to be invaluable. This technique involves a more cautious approach, employing low heat to gently raise the internal temperature of the meat before subjecting it to a fierce sear over high heat. With patience and precision, the reverse searing method ensures that every inch of the meat is infused with rich flavors, delivering a tender and succulent end result.
Mastering the art of browning is an endeavor that calls upon experience, expertise, and a keen understanding of the ingredients at hand. It is through this careful mastery that the true potential of flavors can be unlocked, elevating the dining experience to new heights. The controlled application of heat and the transformative effects it has on food are the fundamental pillars upon which the art of browning is built.
In conclusion, browning is an essential flavoring technique that demands skill and finesse. Whether it be the use of a charcoal grill to impart a tantalizing sear on steaks and chops, or the reverse searing method to transform tougher cuts into tender delicacies, the art of browning is an invaluable tool for any culinary enthusiast. Through practice and experience, one can unlock the potential of browning, unraveling a symphony of flavors and elevating any dish to a realm of unparalleled gustatory pleasure.

SMOKE FLAVOR AS SEASONING
Smoke adds a distinct flavor to food that can't be replicated. Porous foods, like bread, quickly absorb smoky flavors, and experimenting with different wood types that produce varied smoke flavor profiles is a charcoal grill advantage. Hickory, for instance, imparts a bold and rich flavor to steaks, while alder is perfect for salmon. Each wood type's unique characteristics, derived from components like lignin, contribute to its distinct smoke profile.
Charcoal is primarily carbon and doesn't produce much smoke by itself. The smoke in a charcoal grill comes from drippings (oils, grease, sauce, proteins) that fall onto the charcoal. These drippings do not give a good smokey flavor. To create specific smoke flavors, wood or wood chunks need to be added to the charcoal. Adding wood or wood chunks to a gas grill is challenging, and even with a "smoke box," the lid often doesn't seal well enough to trap the smoke for long, imparting minimal flavor.
The engineered airflow of the Arteflame accomplishes an almost complete burn but produces enough smoke to flavor your food. For more smoke flavor, add some fresh wood to the fire or simply use the optional grill grate riser to reduce the heat and put your food directly into the smoke stream for just the perfect amount of flavor.
