I don't blame you, it's a pain in the ass compared to just turning on the gas.
Having done a couple hundred blind taste tests in college, most people can't correctly identify a difference between toughness and dryness let alone properly taste and consistently identify the differences between cooking methods. The direction you cut the individual pieces of meat and how you place it into the mouth have enough of an effect on perceived quality as it is. Add in the effects smell has on perceived taste and people have no ****ing clue what they're tasting half the time. The visual and aromatic placebo effect is much larger than most people realize. The rest of the subtle differences just further confuse most people.
When I go through all the trouble of properly smoking something there is NO WAY all that work I did didn't make it taste better than something that took half the time and effort. Just ask me.
