As I mentioned above: usually. Grilled corn salads, for example, are typically best with the caramelization a grill provides. BUT ... if a thunderstorm suddenly rolls in or your grill runs out of propane (I can't be the only one this happens to!), you can generally get at least a similar result by choosing a different cooking method. So, although the end product may not be EXACTLY the same as what the original recipe intended, you'll generally still end up with something pretty yummy if you need to switch up the cooking method in a pinch.
