When it comes to charcoal grilling, patience is the key. You should know that charcoal grilling requires time, since you need about 30 minutes to light up the charcoals until you start grilling. It all starts with recognizing that nothing gets past a charcoal grill! Charcoal grilling is lots of fun. Even just watching food cook and listening to the sounds of sizzling steaks or hot crackling coals warms you up!  
The basic features that you should focus on buying a charcoal grill are:

• Bucket and lid construction material
• The ventilation system
• The cleaning system
• The quality and layout of grilling grates
• The presence or absence of a built-in thermometer on the lid
• If the wheels are durable, for easy transport
• Transfer handles / lid holder if they are heat-resistant

Proper ventilation is a very important part of a charcoal grill as it helps to maximize combustion efficiency and thus extend the correct grilling temperature. Charcoal grills are lighter and usually have special wheels to move and store very easily.

It is very important at a charcoal grill to check the thickness and robustness of the metal from which it is made. The coating of porcelain enamel on the body and lid is necessary to avoid oxidation and peeling giving longevity to the color of your barbecue. After each use, you should clean the grill bin from the ashes and grease to keep your barbecue in good shape. You can find also barbecues with built-in cleaning systems that can easily pick up ashes from your barbecue bin with simple movements and within minutes.

Modern charcoal grills, of Weber and Primo that you will find on bbq.gr present many innovations and some of the best choices in the barbeque world.
