Thanks, peoples.

Tom, did any of those reviews include the CostCo grills? (they have a product line other than the one I linked to - though the help line is the same number for both grills).

pmb, think any part of that grill is gonna rust up soon? My current BBQ is rusting something fierce and the old lady is picky about her concrete. I got in big trouble once for flinging the mop sauce down on the patio.

2x6, that mesquite charcoal from old Mexico burns hotter than sh!t and lasts a long, long time. It also leaves very little ash, so if you have a smoker/grill combo it is ideal for long smoking sessions. It is also great for charring up steaks, but it takes a long time to go out. I've been out there at midnight waiting for the coals to die out so I can cover my BBQ. No more time for serious bbqing, I guess.
