It's like $45 at the store. If you can find a better quality or better brand for less, buy it and post it!
At this size and for what you're using it for its not really about brand but quality. And at the price the quality can't be beat.

Weber Smokey Joe.
You're reasoning is pretty much verbatim of what the product is intended for.
Got a Weber Smokey Joe and it's perfect for those situations.
I'd say moreso low skill. I haven't really grilled before but I just bought a crib so def wanna start
Depends on your price range. The low end 3 burner Webers are pretty nice.
I'd say go charcoal. It's kind of like driving a manual transmission. Anything after charcoal, I.e pellet, propane, natural gas (connected to your house), electric will be a breeze. Like driving an automatic car. Hell they basically have tesla grills. You just put the meat on and take it off when it's done, it'll cook itself.
If this is your forever home then get something nice. Like someone said in another thread "buy once, cry once".
You can always buy cheap food and practice grilling. And once you master that start buying more expensive cuts. Don't be like me, I have too many grills. Granted it's a hobby for me and there are times when I cook for lots of people.
You could buy something nice and low end and hope to sell it or pawn it off on family when you decide to get something really nice. Or have 2. One that you do your daily/weekly burns on and one nice one you use when you play pitmaster. It's better to use one and learn all the ins and outs of it (hot spots/cool spots, air flow, temp regulation, how to cook different cuts, how to cook different cuts simultaneously, heat management, etc).
Anybody here have a solid chicken pre-game? I’ve tried just dry rub overnight, and I’ve tried a brine but really haven’t been too satisfied with the results. Seems using a brine hives best flavor but the skin doesn’t crisp up.
I usually just dry rub overnight and use high heat so the skin gets crisp. I've seen recipes using baking powder in the rub to help and putting them in the fridge overnight on a rack to really help the skin dry out but I usually don't have the space for that.
Any recommendations on a gas grill? Yea i know charcoal is the shyt but i have 3 charcoal grills and a Green Egg, i just want something i can use quickly.
I have narrowed it down to a Napoleon Xt and a Weber Spirit 3
