Ive actually found some gas grills at lowes that i like. They have the radiant screen that should provide a a much more even cooking. Also it should help slow down the little grease fires burning my stuff up.
This wont do me as i just gave my good charcoal grill to my mom. My dad bough that grill in 1968. Its one of the old cast aluminum ones

Anyway for convenience sake i am more than likely getting a side by side gas/charcoal combo. I can do chicken and even burgers on the gas if i need something done in a hurry, but if im doing steak ill def. want to use the charcoal side.
