I agree completely, in those situations, i simply cook inside on my foreman(which i have found compares very nicely with most gas grills i have used). Otherwise, it's all charcoal for me. I guess i concider it more of a challenge to cook on a charcoal grill. With gas, you simply turn it to whatever temp you want, and cook. With something similar to a weber, it's almost a feel you get, the pride of maintaining the fire and keeping it just right. You just know when the grill is ready(and yes, i know there are charcoal grills with temp gauges on em, i don't count those as challenging in the least), that, and of course to me it simply tastes better on a charcoal grill.
