I'm trying to figure out why anybody would go to all this trouble for a

Nothing tastes as good as using briquettes. I'm curious what would happen if I used some
of the home made charcoal I made a while back with to cook a steak. Would the home made
stuff burn cooler or hotter?
Oh, bull****, guys. I switched over to propane 3 decades ago and
didn't notice one whit of difference--if there isn't a metal pan
between the flame and the grille. Lava rock is wonderful. I do,
however, notice a whole lot of difference in the environment around a
charcoal BBQ. Nobody can breathe downwind of one for several blocks.
I hate charcoal briquettes with a passion. They stink, they're messy
on the way in and on the way out, they take forever to get hot and
cool down, ad nauseum. Just Say No! 
BTW, I'm surprised that eco-terrorists (environmentalists) haven't
caused briquette companies to go out of business yet.
I was the Charcoal BBQ king for decades, until the wife brought home a
new Weber propane grill..and I was devistated. I refused to cook on it!
Then she started bringing me fool she had cooked on it...and I became a
believer that propane was superior to to charcoal.
Never went back to charcoal after that.
Propane Rules!!
I do like charcoal broiled. Too bad it takes so long to get
going, and for one person - too much effort. I have a very nice
Propane Grill, light it up, and while I gather the makings, it heats
up - burns the grill clean B-) - et violia.
But I still like the charcoal fire. Maybe I'll make a fire pit
this summer,then I can do more.
