^^^^^^^^^^^

I'm with the master. You can buy bags of wood already cut up into charcoal sized pieces. But usually I use charcoal and just throw a few of those wood chunck in there.

I have cooked a few steaks in my day, and in a blind taste test I will bet a million dollars that the charcoal steak wins 99 - 100.

As for the time factor, the mess factor, and the cooked factor. Most of the time I can have my grill ready to go in the time it takes to drink a beer, and get all of the meat ready to go on the grill. Sure the ashes are a pain in the neck. What I do is buy a fireplace ash bucket and dump them in there after every time I cook. Or if you live with a gravel driveway, throw them out there. Most of the food I have seen people cook on gas grills is either too done, or not done at all. Those flair ups scare the women and children.

Charcoal was my vote if your still not sure.
