what should be a good starter noob thing to grill easily?

Just get this from Walmart for $60, perfect size for you and a few friends, had mine for a few years now. Fuck propane

For what you paid for a Weber, you could have got pic related at Walmart. Best little grill I've had in years. Has a steel plate in the bottom that prevents burn-out.
Like a lot of people are saying, charcoal chimney is the best way to go, but in-grill lighting with fluid isn't bad either. The anti-lighter fluid fags just don't know you're supposed to wait till the flames die down. Also, do yourself a favor and get some wood chunks for smoking flavor. Mesquite is a must and pecan or hickory is good too depending on what you're cookin. Throw the chunks on as the flame dies down right before you spread the coals even. Natural lump charcoal is good but by its nature it's not as consistent as briquettes. Also, maintain airflow, that thing should be puffing smoke like an old freight train.
