The Do's
Great value grill: Someone please add :)

The Dont's
Don't play with the food on the grill. Flip it once (or twice if need be), that's all.

Be careful. Once your grill gets used you can have one heck of a grease fire and destroy your grill.
I singed my face as a 10 year old (but that was leaving fires on while closing tank valve instead of closing valve then lighting new fire to burn out excess)

That's not the problem lol

OTOH the hyena screaming from the treeline may be. Would be fun having a fight over my steaks.

Directly on the coals may be a bit too iffy for me lol
I agree put grated directly on coals and steak on top.

My question is really if I'll have issues with charred outside and raw insides, or stuff like that.

Instead of on the coals you can cook right on the rocks. Ate meat that way in MBJ for many years.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Listen, just because you have family that's wrong on this doesn't mean anything :)

In any case, the OP should be given the benefit of the doubt that he doesn't have these weird aversions to beautiful colors. And 145-150 is pretty dry. It's not completely vulcanized rubber yet, but it's getting there.

Also my wife's family was not into rare/mid-rare meat a while back. But I've kind of converted most of them. They still usually incinerate their own meat, but they will eat what I cook very happily. Still working on getting them to be happy with custardy scrambled eggs though.
I don't think wrong comes in here, it's
טעם וריח אין להתווכח,
30 years ago no one knew about eating meat not well done,
Not sure if it's a new trend or maybe it's just new by frum yidden,
But anyhow to say it's wrong is out of context, I love steak well done , or medium well, happens to be i just made a rib steak now in the oven on broil , both sides, then 550 bake , it had a crisp on the outside and juicy soft as butter in the inside well done , love it , I can eat medium rare but don't like it

I'm looking for a new grill.
Up to $800. Any recommendations?

Should I consider a charcoal one?  I never had one but love the taste.  Is it hard to maintain? Also can charcoal grills reaching searing temperature easily?

Charcoal does taste better but it's much more annoying so realistically you won't grill as much
ETA maybe look into a pellet grill or something like this

I grill on average 3 times a week on this, I agree with the comment upthread, charcoal may taste better but supper annoying and also harder to control temperatures.

Oil rub with montreal steak seasoning - leave on high rack and bring down to direct heat if you want to to crisp the skin

I like something with a little bit of sugar for chicken on the bone.
