A grill should run on charcoal. It needs to get very hot and that's literally it.
There's a universe where I attach some electronic controller with a PID loop or something to a smoker, to maintain consistent temperatures via damper control. I'm not buying that off the shelf built into the machine though.
Someone insert the KOTH reference, I'm too tired, I tell you hwat

Hank is wrong. If all you care about is the "heat," you might as well go inside and cook on your stove!
I just recently watched the episode where Bobby and Peggy get hooked on charcoal
Traeger makes pellet smokers. They have a hopper full of wood pellets and a micro controller that feeds in pellets to maintain a set temperature. You can get ones with a temperature probe to stick in the meat and let you know when it's done, which is what the Wi-Fi is for.
There's a legit use case for them because they save a ton of time and effort over smoking the traditional way.
wifi grill - okay
cloud grill - not okay
Uses a PID controller too.
I really ought to finish putting together my HeaterMeter.
While I agree that real charcoal is superior in every way, a good grill and the person running it needs to be able to control the temperature while cooking. It might be just fine to burn those hot dogs or hamburger patties, but if I want to roast a potato or an onion, I need to be able to control the heat to something less than the surface of the sun.
You're describing the gravity fed charcoal grills from masterbuilt and I love mine. Especially when I toss in a cast iron pan full of bacon and run it at 450 for half an hour.
