Gas or Charcoal Pits

Okay, so whats best for BBQ cooking, gas or charcoal. Hands down charcoal with wood, such as mesquite, oak, pecan, hickory or other varieties, whatever your taste buds demand. Using gas is not really BBQ in my opinion. There is nothing like cooking ribs, pork butts or brisket over wood and charcoal. The flavor gained from longer cooking periods far outweighs the speed of cooking with gas. Gas grills are okay, if you are doing hamburgers, hot dogs and things that don't require much preparation, but if you want flavor, wood and charcoal is the way to go.
