No need for the quotes--grilling is grilling. "Barbecue" is the word most people need to be more careful about.
All you need is a good grill pan. There are two things that a good grill pan has to have. First, It should be heavy, and probably made primarily from cast-iron. Second, the grill grates should be deep enough where semi-soft food like burgers will sit on top of the grates without touching the surface below. That'll give you the grill marks you want, and the smoke of the burnt drippings underneath should replicate some of that outdoorsy taste.
Other than that, look for what makes you the most comfortable. What's gonna be easiest to work with? Do some options have features that will realistically make you more inclined to grill your food?
Maybe you want a good, sturdy product from a consistently good and reasonably priced brand. Check out [1] (http://www.amazon.com/Lodge-Pro-Logic-P12SGR3-Pre-Seasoned-12-inch/dp/B0001DJVGA/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1406489694&sr=8-7&keywords=grill+pan) and [2.] (http://www.amazon.com/Lodge-L8SGP3-Pre-Seasoned-Cast-Iron-10-5-inch/dp/B0000CF66W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406489694&sr=8-1&keywords=grill+pan) Note the differences, and how they might limit or assist you.
I grill a lot, so if it were me, I'd spring for [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Le-Creuset-Enameled-Bistro-3-Inch/dp/B00B4UP3W0/ref=sr_1_94?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1406491379&sr=1-94&keywords=grill+pan) if I didn't have access to a normal grill. If I wasn't flush in this graduation money, I'd investigate options like [this.] (http://www.amazon.com/Typhoon-Cast-Iron-Grill/dp/B00L1L5YVM/ref=sr_1_13?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1406491199&sr=1-13&keywords=grill+pan) I'm partial to the low sides for ease of access, and I like the handleless and removable handle design for storage and sink access
On that note, never wash these with soap and sponge. Look up how to take care of them, and keep in mind that you're gonna pre-heat this thing to 500 degrees on a high flame for 5-10 minutes before you use it. That'll kill whatever you might be squeamish about.
You don't have to worry about preheating for too long as long as you don't forget its on there and remember the handle could be very hot. For the sake of science and familiarizing myself with how my food actually cooks, I use [this guy] (http://www.amazon.com/SainSonic-SS5380-Infrared-Themometer-Temperature/dp/B0057OOW12/ref=sr_1_4?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1406492165&sr=1-4&keywords=infrared+thermometer) all the time. It's great for cooking, letting kids "help," and confusing your dog beyond the limits of sanity.
Happy cooking!
