It gets hot pretty fast but how often are you going to have an 8 hour BBQ?

the type of BBQs that I plan to have would be the type that lasts like 2-3 hrs in the backyard.
Pretty much just mini BBQ's at night every now and then. Nothing fancy and not going to have lot of ppl (4-6ppl).
I also don't want to spend a lot of $ on charcoal/propane since I will be having many mini BBQ's.
Propane grill has the extra ignition part, which could be $$(20?) to replace.
It seems like charcoal will be the cheaper choice, but propane is more fit for the type of BBQs that I want to have.

BTW, does anyone know which grill would be easier to clean? Propane or charcoal?
Since lavarocks keep the heat better, wouldn't it mean I have to wait longer before I can pack up the propane grill?
