Bought my first grill a few months ago. I had an old hand-me-down that I frequently used with a cast iron flat top and decided to make the switch. Four burner Blackstone.
Cheesesteaks, hibachi, fried rice, smash burgers,and having the ability to cook veggies easily along with everything else has been the best part. So much easier to clean up than getting the stove inside messy and stinking up the house.
Well, not to mention that in this heat, not cranking up the oven is a blessing.
We grilled Alaskan king crab legs, kielbasa sausage and corn on the cob on Sunday... Side salad out of a bag and that's one of the easiest and tastiest meals we've had in a long time.
You can lead a horse to fish, but you can't fish out a horse.
Back to the hatch chiles, found some at the store, roasted them last night then realized the kids have used all the rubber gloves so had to raw dog the peeling. Brutal. Didn't really feel it until I was like 75% of the way done then didn't not feel it until I went to bed and they're still a little sensitive today.

The one at the bottom? Never. It just slowly rusts away. The one at the top? Never. Just keep burning off the old stuff. Heard it was somehow hazardous to scrape off the old charred fat. Pretty sure I've got an extra from an old grill anyway. No way you can't find an old one for 5 bucks (free?) somewhere
