We barbecued couple of days ago, it took me few days to develop the pictures Anyway, veggie barbecue and some vino.
With halloumi. I didn't like halloumi before, but suddenly I LOVE it, I am totally obsessed with it.

I've actually had some good veggie burgers - but yeah, you burned the piss out of yours It just takes practice.
Biggest mistake most people make when Bar-B-Queuing or grilling as we call it in the South is having their fire too hot and the meat or whatever too close to the fire.
If your grill can be adjusted you want about 4-6 inches above your fire.
For gas grills fire up all burners for about 5-10 minutes, then reduce to low and wait about 5-10 minutes before putting the food on. Usually best to have a burner or two off so you can move meats to a cooler place when flame ups occur. Charcoal make sure it's fully ashed over and build the fire to one side leaving a cooler side to move stuff during flame ups.
Flip, rotate, and shuffle things around frequently to ensure even cooking. If you can't avoid flame ups... keep a spray bottle handy with water in it... or splashing a little beer on it will settle a fire down and kick your marinade up a bit.
Remember your goal is to achieve the correct/desired doneness with a little charing on the outside... you're not there to burn the shit out of it. Note for beef you want the internal temperature about 145F for medium rare up to 165-170F for well. Chicken/Turkey about 165-170F.
An open flame runs about 1000-2000F and non-flaming charcoal runs about 750-850F... the point is a little fire goes a long way to cooking something through less than 200F internal temperature. I've seen people load up a standard Weber grill full of charcoal 3-4 inches deep and wonder why they burn the shit out stuff... I'd use a pile about 8-12 inches around and 4-6 inches tall... start it then spread it on one half of the burning area and it's plenty to cook 2-5 lbs of meat. Just take your time, have a beer, wine whatever and enjoy cookin out doors...
If you still can't master the fire... go spend $20 on a digital wireless thermometer and take all the guess work out of it...
If you didn't notice I love Bar-B-Q!!!
We usually never do it. My grandfather used to put fish on grill. So, we have my mom who for some unknown reason refuses to use lighter fluid. My dad refuses to use briquettes... And then you have me who just want to do it like all other, normal people. Our BBQ ends up being a mix of all these different "rules" that each of us have.
Now to the concrete problem this particular day. I got in there some briquettes and they kept getting cold, so my solution was (when everyone abandoned me) was to drop oil on them just to keep some heat. Well, that caused the flames to burn all my food. How do I keep them hot without dropping oil on them?
Make sure you have good air flow to the fire... usually that means cleaning out ashes and grease build up in the bottom where the fire is. Make sure the vents near the fire are open. If the fire gets too hot... partially closing the vent will bring it down. If you do have to add something to get your fire back up... remove the food temporarily until it's under control.
This is my grill.

I don't think I have any vents on it.
From the picture it looks like some small vent holes in the bottom of it. Make sure they are not blocked.
This is what my smoker looks like...
For quick stuff like burgers, chicken or steaks... I have a CharBroil 4 burner propane grill.
Cooked brussel sprouts, salted and seasoned with olive oil. And feta cheese.
I took a pic for you guys but I can't upload it, the site where I upload isn't working right now.

Wait, what?

Man, I saw this then totally wanted 'Triple Threat' wings from a place here called Bru's room. They're grilled wings with hot, honey & BBQ. Insanely good.
Anyway, I go and there isn't a seat in the house. I end up at this little hole in the wall with hearty home cooked bar food and order a shepherds pie. It's delicious and hits the spot!
