charcoal for flavor, gas for convenience.

But dont you guys use perfume as fuel source in france?

I use gas for my grill and Charcoal for my Smoker.  I always put some mesquite in the the Grill for flavor, in the smoker it's a nescessity.

Charcoal has a better flavor, and give you more diversity.  If you get a charcoal, make sure it's deep so you can use it for hardwood and smoking.

Gas is cleaner, easier, and cooks evenly.  You can buy flavor pellets for gas now, as well as smoker boxes.  I've never used either with gas.

If you are serious about food flavor and cooking, I'd go with charcoal/wood.  If you just like a burger or steak on the grill, fast and easy, I'd get gas.

Charcoal. Pops had a couple gas grills and did fairly well with them, but I could never get the heat right. ALWAYS to hot even on the lowest setting.  I can get a charcoal grill just right in no time.

On another note, an old highschool friend of mine built a smoker out of an old oven. He'd load the wet wood chips in the bottom and the deer up top. He cooked up the best venison I've ever tasted in my life and it was a leg to boot. Not your "prime cut". Said he pegged it with an arrow about 100yrds from his back door. Not the oven, the deer...doh!

saw a portable BBQ ad on TV that will do gas or charcoal, something about a lift out gas fire box , sorry, i wasn't paying attention.

if you go gas , get the burner with ceramic bricketts.

This isn't very manly I suppose, but ELECTRIC Grills are very very convenient... I've been using mine year round for three trouble free years.

Mine came with lava rocks and you can toss wood chips on the element if you wish.

looks good Rude, I was thinking more along these lines..

Gas grill, make sure you spend a little money on it so it isn't a POS, and use a smoker box with it if you wanna add some flavor.

Or go charcoal if you wanna save some money and don't mind cleaning the thing out all the time.

Since you've decided to go charcoal (good choice btw) if you don't want the hassle or the taste of charcoal lighter fluid, use one of these .  They're easy to use and gets the coals ready very quickly.
