now that we're going to be grilling again, i thought it was time to get back into using a charcoal grill.
i crossed over to the dark side a few years ago switching to a gas grill, mainly for convenience/laziness.
but this past winter, we had the opportunity to enjoy real charcoal grilled burgers a few times when we went skiing. they were just so darned good, and they apparently made a big impression on my son. so much so that he remebered them months later and asked if we could make them at home.
well, like the scene when darth vader saves luke from the power of the dark side, i decided i need to get a charcoal grill for when i have the time to do it right for the little guy.
so, what would be everyone's recommendations for a good charcoal grill? i don't think i'd be interested in a big green egg just because of the price (which would seem like a waste considering how often it will be used).
my first inclinations are for a weber kettle grill. i have a a really old smokey joe that i use on canoe/camping trips, but i definitely would like something larger for home.
tia for any suggestions.
