I like my 6 year old Weber Genesis because I can get parts for it.
I know people with more expensive grills, but they do the same stuff I do in mine.
I have a Holland grill that is about 8 years old and it is awesome. It is an indirect heat unit and does an excellent job on everything including whole turkeys. It is a bit slower at cooking than other grills though.

12 year-old weber genesis -- replaced the burners once and still going strong...
Large big green egg (might be just out of the price range).
Weber performer, gas ignition, charcoal grill. Love this thing, no more lighter fluid. It takes small propane bottles to ignite the charcoal. I have converted it to a five gallon propane tank.
Traeger.
Went from a crap Charbroil that's heat setting were either off or incinerate to a Weber and love it. But, have two friends that once they had meat off a Traeger went out and bought one.
I have a six burner Jenn Air and love it for off burner cooking, Its on natural gas but real nice setup.

if boring is knowing you didnt fxxx up the ribs, ill sacrifice the thrill of mystery.
My brother in law has a Masterbuilt electric smoker. I was really impressed with the pork shoulder he made in it. You plug it in, add wood chips, set the temperature and forget about it for while. I was told it does a really good job on ribs too. I plan on getting one in the near future.

I has this... Its hooked up to gas. I burn everything
I used to use a weber gas grill, works great, always starts, and cooks evenly. That said, I switched to charcoal and have never looked back. IMHO, charcoal (by that I mean wood) makes much better tasting food. It takes a bit more work, but once you learn how to use it, is great. Temperature control is not hard, you just have to remember that the more air, the hotter it gets.
For the money, you can't beat a Weber. For $150 you can get the one touch gold, which cooks great and has the ash catch so you don't have a mess. For $350 you can get the performa series which uses propane to start the charcoal making it even more convenient.
What I really recommend is the Bubba Keg (Steel Keg Barbeque). It is a copy of the Green Egg, but at a better price point. The Steel Keg is an updated Bubba Keg and runs $599, but you can get the Bubba Keg from Home depo on closeout for $449, or if you ask nicely, $399 in some cases.
