Portable Propane Grill

[Fergie]

Well, our cheapie $20 propane grill finally bit the dust. After about 8 years of use, it just didnt like the new salty air in CA and rusted apart, so we are in the market for a new one.

I've looked at various different ones online and in the stores, but figured I'd come here to see what all you use.

We'll be using this at home for the most part, and space is very limited, hence the 'portable' requirement. I'd like to take in on camping trips as well when there are fire restrictions and such.

So, what all are you using, and what all would you recommend?

Thanks

I bought a Weber Q grill (the big one) about 3 years ago after going through tons of the 20 and 30 dollar portable grills. I paid more for it than a full size grill and I am never going back.
It fits on my tailgate so I always take it with me. It actually gets hot enough and stays hot enough to sear 1 inch thick steaks properly and then cooks them.I have done burgers for 60 people at an annual summer event at my cottage and I cannot say enough good things about it. Finally, an important thing (for me since I hate Walmart and chinese goods except for stuff out of the Chinese Government Arsenal), it is very well made in north america. That alone makes it a no brainer!

Are speaking of the Q200 grill?

Offtopic, but I concur about the arsenal, except I prefer the Yugo version

Yeah it is a Q200. The Yugo is better built but I like my Chinese Government Arsenal SKS because it feels more like a weapon of war (I am from the dark side after all).

Does the Weber Q flare up with chicken?

I was checking online at Sears the other day for home BBQ's and then this Tool Box style popped up on closeout.

Maybe somebody can make use of it. I have no idea how good it is. Looks handy though.

Closeout: $14.97

My Weber boxy propane grill is 5+ years old and going strong. Cost less that $50 as I recall.
