The main downside is that it takes extra time up front to start up the charcoal vs a gas BBQ is just flipping a few switches. You get get smaller versions for $300-600 and you might just want a chimney kit to speed up the charcoal starting.
I have no experience with these though. It just popped into my head as I was researching some of these on the side. Apparently, you can get some really damn tasty stuff from these and I am not opposed to slow cooks which is why this is something I am interested in experimenting with. From what I understand, quite a few people still get a traditional BBQ, but also love getting something else on the side for some added levels of BBQ awesome.

Honestly, I did think about this. However, I think the convenience of propane, the fact its what I'm used to, and the quick start time, cleaner/less messy aspect are still what I'm holding on to. That said, I wouldn't be opposed to picking up a charcoal BBQ down the road to experiment with.
Right now, it's the go with what you know.
