- Four Grills
- Four Fuels
- 8 rib-eyes, 2 per grill
- Weber Kettle fueled by Kingsford 'Original' Briquettes. The reigning world champion for decades and the grill of choice today by many steak competition teams. The 2011 World Championship Steak Cookoff was won using a Weber Kettle (and GrillGrates)
- Kamado Joe fueled by Wicked Good Lump Charcoal. Ceramic Kamado grills are the choice of champions in the low and slow world, and they grill hot which makes them a real contender in a steak cook-off
- Yoder Pellet Grill fueled by BBQR's Delights all natural wood smoking pellets. A pellet grill in a steak cook-off? The new kid on the deck, and it claims to reach 600F! This would be our first time grilling hot without the heat shield, right over the burning pot of pellets-- boy were we surprised!
- Charbroil Commercial Series Gas Grill fueled by propane from my local ACE Hardware. Still my workhorse, the Joe Fraser of my grills if you will. I have grilled hundreds of restaurant quality steaks on this grill and I was on a mission to grill my best steak tonight
It was a guys dream to stand amidst four grills smoking beautifully as the steaks were grilling. It was a Bellagio Fountain of Smoke! This post will be in two parts. If you want to skip ahead visit the GrillGrate Facebook page. Otherwise stay tuned! We may need Alton Brown to officiate the rematch!

And the winner of Round ONE of the Grate Steak-Off was... The Weber Kettle!
This video may help explain why. (maybe I'll figure out how to embed?)
