Re: charcoal or gas?
I got one of these as a gift and it rules! Folds up smaller than a
suitcase and uses either coal or gas:

It's all chromed stainless and parts go in the dishwasher. Kinda
expensive, though.

You mispelled "smoke-flavor enhancers" there, Lon.

Re: charcoal or gas?
As others have noted, it all depends. For myself, I like my rinky-dink
2nd-hand gas grill: I don't have to start the grill half an hour before I
want to cook, I don't have to worry about when it will finally go out when
I'm done, I never have to fiddle with coals that are burning on this end
but not that end, I can adjust the heat instantly at whim, I never have to
handle ashes. If I want nearly wood smoke flavor I can add chips. Like
Lon, I run it at high for a while when I'm done to self-clean it.
But I can see the charcoal purists point of view too. Nothing tastes like
real hardwood charcoal. For me, it comes down to ease of control and ease
of use. YMMV.
