In my limited experience i do know what you mean.  I think most of barbecue is about making  a tender and juicy piece of meat out of a not very good piece of meat.  And someday, and that could be ten or more years away, I am going to take on a stick burner.  I got started at this pretty late, but that is my ultimate goal.
