I prefer grilling chickins but the marinade is key. Beer can chicken gets the kids all excited but make sure to use indirect heat or else you’ll wind up with cajun style chicken.

Just a heads up, if you have a grill, even a small one - with an aluminum pan filled with water, and the charcoal off to one side with the ribs on the other side. This works even with the $15 Wal Mart square cheapies.
I can’t say I have a favorite. I grill a lot of different stuff. I guess the one I grill the most often would be chicken.
I am really getting into BBQing pork and beef though. Especially ribs, night/day difference between BBQing and braise/grilling them. Brisket is good but I’ve really gotten into Flank for BBQing, it carries a bit more flavor imop. But both are great.
I’m a burger/dogs kind of guy. Love putting bacon bits and shredded cheddar cheese in the hamburger meat. Add some salt n pepper with a dash of garlic powder and you’re good to go.
I do enjoy the red meat and pork products, but my favorite is probably tuna steak with grilled asparagus. If you do it right (and the tuna is at least somewhat fresh), the inside stays pink and the outside is crispy brown with cracked pepper and herbs encrusted. Dip the asparagus in oil and sugar, and grill until just past crispy (not soggy).
In fact, most vegetables and fish come out well on the grill, and are a little easier on the arteries.
Sounds great, but I generally never had 3 hours (a minimum) to grill. But I’ll put that one in my back pocket now that I’d have the time on my side since I’m no longer married and can do as I damn well please (without constant bitching).
