A couple of things I've found; I just bought a new NG BBQ and replaced my propane one.

The new BBQ has a huge cooking surface. That being said, I find I have to turn on two burners even though I may be only cooking one or two pieces of meat for myself; there is a large amount of empty space that needs to be heated.

The other factor is that NG burns cooler than propane. Not as noticable with steak or chicken, but I really notice it when I cook hamburgers.

Of course you have to make sure you are going with NG because you don't want the hassle of refilling the tank. If you are the type of person who typically forgets and leaves the BBQ on, at least with propane the most you could ever cost yourself is $12. I found that by buying a BBQ cover for the new grill I tend to remember to turn it off.
