So it's been a couple decades of larger and fancier gas grills - since I felt charcoal wasn't "good enough."  The latest incarnation we bought is over 7 feet long, is gaudy in its stainless-ness, has infared side burners, dual rotiseries, all that junk...that we barely used!  Then this year, this big fancy grill has a problem...the warranty fix takes months...and it's grilling time....and so I bought this wonderful little Weber gem here on Amazon.
