I dont like the way it grills when its plumbed to the house, I think it depends on your gas connection though
Just keep a spare tank around, get in the habit of turning off the **** on the tank itself and your in good shape.

Hell, I'd be content with one of those 55 gallon drum grills, they get the job done. Ah...I remember fondly when we got our little charcoal travel grill out at Road Atlanta during Formula D. Everyone around us were so jealous of our nice burgers.

You guys are nuts with all this bling-bling built-in outdoor grill ****!
89 bucks buys a Weber kettle, and it gets the job done everytime.
Gas grills are for rookies!
I like my BBQ now, not waiting 1/2 hour for the coals to warm
besides- charbroiled meat has been linked to cancer

if you want to be a big shot you have someone custom make one for your backyard, they drop a Viking grill into a custom made brick enclosure with a countertop of your choice like corian, marble, granite. Hell they can even put a roof or a hood over it with a fan
you can put a fridge in that ****, broiler, bread warmer, etc..

There's brass, cast iron and stainless steel burners and porcelain cast iron burners. The strait cast iron were obviously ****. I am thinking stainless, although brass would have to be pretty wicked too.

I need to buy a house so I can build a brick one for charcoal. It just tastes better, don't listen to Hank.
I agree. I have one of those cheap charcoal grills that works wonders. I've been thinking about building a brick grill for the backyard. One of these days.

i read BBQ and thought retreat.... 
i was actually checking the grills out at home depot the other day for end of seasons clearances. we got a weber thats about 2 or 3 years old with about 240 sq inches(i think i did the math right), perfect for me nad my fam, but when you got 20+ ppl it gets small real quick...
this thread has helped me better understand grills however.

go with the large grill, its nice to not be limited, you can always just use one side anyhow
you would be surprised how small even a large grill gets when you have 20 people at your house.
and for all you coal bbq is best people- the very best BBQ is cooking meat over WOOD, not coals, prefereble hickory
try it sometime
