I grew up with that broiler, with gas, and used it all the time. It's great for chicken but as it heats - both the broiler and the food - you might have to turn things more often or move them around on the broiler tray so they char evenly. And like grilling, it's that char you want. Wow, I wish I had that broiler now.
