Barbeques: GAS or CHARCOAL

[pork pie]

Having a DILEMMA about the best type of barbeque to go for. Since losing my mansion last year (self inflicted) and replacing it with a POKEY house with a very small back yard, now have the big decision to make on the BBQ front.

What do the EXPERTS of NSC prefer (and any recommendations)?

I have my eye on a Webber BBQ that looks to be the best of both worlds. It burns charcoal, but has a built-in gas lighter to cut out all the trouble of lighting it. Just need the weather now to make the investment worth while. It looks like summer is over now!

Gas for cooking an convenience but charcoal is the real deal and cooked correctly, gives a better flava flav!

Gas for convenience and speed but charcoal for evocative smell and flava flav!

Gas, because it prevents someone else managing to poison everyone else with whatever they cook when I've gone to the loo.

Don't have a problem with a proper charcoal one - NOT a tray from a petrol station - if everyone who's going to cook on it can use it. Most people can't.
