But no clue on where to start.
How important is convenience for you? Pellet is definitely the way to go if so, potentially even a Bradley electric.

If you're willing to go the charcoal route I found the Weber Smokey Mountains a good way to dabble in in smoking. Lots of top end potential so you won't be limited that way. Get it on a sale or used and you'll definitely hit the $300 budget.

Edit: Its Natural Gas
Blocked burner? Who assembled it? Maybe pull out the manual and see if there was an installation error. Webers are known for nice even heat so clearly something is wrong.
