mysqli_prepare for queries with NO parameters

[wisni1rr]

I am just learning how to write prepared mysqli statements in php. I have a question in regards to a query that does not have any user entered parameters such as:

SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE field IS NULL

Should I use a prepared statement or the traditional mysqli_query()?

If I use a prepared statement, do I just omit the mysqli_stmt_bin d_param() or should I set a piece of the query to a variable before the script starts?

Thanks for taking the time to read my questions!

if you execute the query only once or twice, $mysqli->query() will suffice.
