The correct answer is neither since both grep or bzgrep will simply
state that "Binary file matches". Why would anyone tar and then
compress a single text file anyways?
I apologize for the tangent, this is getting way OT.

bzgrep?
...
Grep is fully capably capable of matching lines directly from the file
so you don't need anything piping the file to it. ...
Now, what if the file is compressed ?
There is
bzless config.tar.bz2 | grep PREEMT*
would that somehow work pipeless ?
