What is the real reason why food cooked over charcoal tastes so much better than food cooked over gas? Is it because of the ash contaminating the food, or the vaporization of juices dropping onto the hot coals, or what?

Some people say it's because charcoal doesn't produce any steam. In ideal conditions it's just a pure C + O2 to CO2 combustion. The methane in gas is CH4, so you get two H2O molecules for along with every CO2.

I don't know how much that really effects the food though, because you can get similar dreamless heat using a salamander or electric grill.
