(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
There are multiple varieties of grills, with most falling into one of two categories: gas-fueled and charcoal.Gas-fueled grills typically use propane gas as their fuel source, with gas-flame either cooking food directly or heating grilling elements which in turn radiate the heat necessary to cook food.
Charcoal grills typically use charcoal briquets as their fuel source. The briquets when burnt will transform into embers, radiating the heat necessary to cook food.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Grilling means broiling food with direct heat. In the United States, grilled food is usually cooked on a grill, gridiron or a metal plate with flame applied from below. Grilling is usually done outdoors on barbecue grills. A skewer or brochette may link smaller portions of food in this process.Grilling is very popular during the summer months.
Outside USA, the term refers to cooking directly under a source of direct, dry heat. Grillers (also called a broiler) are usually a separate part of an oven where the food is inserted just under the element. The door of a griller is normally left open during cooking to increase dryness.
