It is an excuse for guys to stand in the yard and do nothing but hold on to a cold drink. You smell the wood smoke, stare at the burning coal, something very deep inside is turned on, probably from 50k years ago ...

Not to mention that using gas around here can be hazardous to one's health. Some foks might just take offense
ps: I know this thread was charcoal vs gas, but when it comes to hickory smoked barbeque...there is no substitute. I will NOT enter a joint that uses gas (and many new joints do)...heretics going to the devil I tell ya
