I know, it's electric, but a little bit of digging makes pellets seem like a great way to go.
No, pellet grills are not electric. Unlike an electric smoker where you have an electric heating element to provide the heat (like an electric oven) with a smoke generator of some sort to provide the flavor, the burning pellets provide all the heat along with the flavor. Pellet grills do require electricity to kick on the hot surface igniter and run the feed auger, fan and temp control electronics, but all of the work is done by the pellets.

Depending on the condition, $350 sounds like it might be a good deal.
