I've never been a gas grill fan, preferring wood and charcoal.  So, now I have my Weber 26.75 inch kettle and my Q1000.  Love them both.  The Q is perfect for just my wife and me.  I use the kettle for larger cook-outs.  I follow the cooking directions that came with it and it produces perfectly cooked steaks, fish fillets, chicken (even roasted one on it), chops.
