I have both an upright propane and the MB Electric 40". I vote for the electric by far.
I could never get the temp stable on the gas unit. Even a very light breeze would vary the temp by maybe 40*. Plus a breeze sometimes blew out the flame completely, and you don't know it. I put some homemade baffles around the burner on the bottom as a fix, but it still jumped all over on temp.
If you have a well protected area to cook out of the wind, you can smoke up some delicious meats on gas. Including the infamous "smoke ring" and a crispy, crunchy bark.
Good luck.
