RED LOBSTER WOOD FIRED GRILLED SEAFOOD
They say they have a wood grill now. is it real? do they really have a grill master ? i live close to a red lobster restaurant and i don't see any log piles out side to feed a wood grill. maybe they use liquid smoke instead?

I wonder how a "wood-fire assisted grill" works in practice. According to article at following link, "The open-top gas grills in a majority of its restaurants were modified to burn oak logs with a gas assist." I wonder whether the wood is providing most of the heat or whether it's being used like the wood chips (in a smoker box or foil) that one might use with a conventional gas grill at home.

From the Red Lobster website
Our Grills…
Red Lobster retrofitted 680 restaurant kitchens with wood-fire assist grills, with particular
attention given to the grates – the width of the bars, sturdiness, durability and ease of
cleaning.›2 Replies-

They have these in Outback Steakhouse. The only noticeable difference is that the wood grilled steaks are saltier.

re: monkeyrotica
The grilled fish at RL is extremely salty - to the point of inedibility IMO. But if I remember to ask them not to salt/"season" the fish before they grill it, it's not bad. It's definitely my dish of preference if I find myself at a RL. (I've assumed that it's actually something like a gas grill with some wood chips in the vicinity, but I have no idea how it really works.)
