We have a kettle (?) type Weber grill but it is falling apart. We saw some nice gas grills in Sears today on sale and thought they looked really nice.
It's getting harder to find a plain old charcoal grill lately - I only found one or two models among all the gas grills the last time I shopped for one. I swear by charcoal though and will never go gas. I especially like to take fresh peppers from the garden, char their skins off over the coals, then sautee their juicy innards mixed with onions and a little olive oil. Yummy.
We had a big fancy gas grill, but the food it cooked just didn't taste as good as a charcoal grill.
You'll barbecue better than you have a right to. Mine works like a dream. Weighs about 150 pounds, though.
