I mainly use my Weber charcoal 22'' traditional grill. For the charcoal I use Kingsford, as I tend to buy up the 2 big bags on sale for 10 bucks. One thing I believe is well worth the purchase is a chimney starter for the charcoal, as there is no need for lighter fluid, just a pure clean burn. Also if you are doing a big cookout, it doesnt hurt having some coals in there as backup ready to go in case the first round of coals start to give out.
One technique I do is before I dump the coals in, I will lay a few briquets around the coal grate. These will ignite when the hot coals are poured over them, and will give a longer fire.
My advice for getting a perfectly cooked steak or burger is to just use your finger to see how 'mushy' it is. https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/the_finger_test_to_check_the_doneness_of_meat/
