If you really want to cook barbecue (barbecue is a method for creating food,
not a cooker), neither one of these things will do it anywhere near
properly. Go to http://www.bbq-porch.org/faq/default.asp and read about how
to barbecue. If you want a grill to cook steaks and hot dogs that can
double as a very decent smoker/barbecue cooker, look at a Brinkmann (ecb =
el cheapo Brinkmann) or for an excellent but relatively inexpensive unit, a
Weber Smokey Mountain.
