We don't. We need to get one. Started lurking on craigslist.
If you have one, is it a gas or charcoal grill?

We bought a gas grill (HOA restrictions) for Father's Day last year. I believe we got it for $90 around Father's Day. It's not fancy or anything. Very basic but it gets the job done.

We picked up a nice Weber gas grill in EUC from craigslist for $150 a few years ago. Charcoal is too much work!

We live in a six-flat building, and our association owns a gas grill. In our old high rise, we just had a little smokey joe.

A lot of people like gas for the convenience but we went with a Weber charcoal grill with a gas starter.

Its perfect for just DH and I and we can easily cook enough for 6 people. If we were going to host a big BBQ, I would probably get a bigger gas grill, but this is low maintenance enough for us. You just screw a small camp stove gas can to the unit and that will provide the fuel to light up your charcoal. You turn off the gas after 10 minutes, give the coals 20 minutes to get ready, during which you can prep your meat and veggies.
What I like about the charcoal is that I can cook a bunch of different meals because the coals last a long time. After I cook our dinner, I usually throw on a big piece of meat like a tri-tip or a pork loin or a few chicken breasts and let that cookwhile we eat. Then with the remaining embers, I throw on a few sweet potatoes and let it go while the coals die (like another hour) and I have most of tomorrow's meal ready to go!

Yup! DH loves to grill, and I love when he does! So easy and delicious. I don't know the brand of our grill, but ours has both charcoal and gas!

DH just got a new Weber gas grill for his bday and he loves it -- it also has a side burner. We also have a little Weber charcoal kettle. And a small Weber gas grill from college that we can take camping/picnicking since it's portable. DH said he now wants to get a smoker...

Too many. We have both. We much prefer the taste of lump charcoal so DH uses that almost exclusively.

We have a has grill. DH is scared of it because he accidentally let the gas run without lighting it and then it almost blew up

We have a gas grill. I use it all the time in the summer - so much less to clean up!

We have a gas grill, it's Charbroil brand from Home Depot. I can't be bothered with disposing ash...I am really afraid of the garbage catching on fire.

Yup! We love to grill. We have a gas bc the startup/warm up time is quicker and cleaning is a breeze.
I prefer the taste of grilling with charcoal though.

We have a 2 gas grills. We just moved to a house and the previous owners gave us his gas grill for cheap as it's hooked up to the gas line in the house directly and he didn't need it at his new place. We had already bought a nice grill so we're just keeping both as we like to entertain in the summer. We also have a smoker that I love!

We did but our porch collapsed and destroyed it. Sucks because it was a really nice grill.

Yep we have a gas one that was a house warming gift from my parents, we use it all the time in the spring/summer/fall! We need to replace it soon though.
