I have one of those Chinese charcoal grills (~$99) at Homer D Po. Use that for burgers, steaks, etc

for smoking I use a contraption I saw on the Food Network

Two big flower pots, a sturdy pie tin, one grill from a small Webber, one gas grill thermometer, four bricks

You put the flower pot on two bricks placed so that you can run the cord from the hot plate between them. put the hot plat on top of the other two bricks inside the pot. put the pie plate on top of the hot plate, add hickory chunks, top with the grill. Put the meat you want to smoke on the grill, cover with the other flower pot and stick the thermometer in the hole in the pot.

I smoke a couple of Boston Butts for about 18 hours in there. You don't have to worry about fires, of the thing getting too hot (It gets up to 225 degrees)

Works great! costs about 20 bucks!
