In our previous life as boaters we purchased in 1990 from West Marine a Sea-B-Que grill. We kept it when we sold the boat and now have it as part of our camping gear. In 22 years I replaced the burner 3 years ago and the regulator last year. I'm going to have to MacGyver the rear bumper bbq mount that comes with our new unit to make this one fit. I would not be without it. There are somewhat pricey but certainly worth the money. 3 sizes available- a round 16 inch, and 2 rectangular sizes. I have the larger, I believe aprox 12 x 20 inch cooking surface.

Do a search on this topic. You'll find lots of info. We have the Weber Q 120. The Weber Q series is popular among RVers. Easy to use and clean.

We have the O Grill and love it. Comes with a good carry bag. A much better built grill than our previous Coleman.

X2 Any of the smaller Webers (Q100 - Q120) would be a great choice. Excellent quality.

I would also recommend the Weber Q series. I’ve had one for two years now with no complaints. You can also purchase a cart that folds up for easy storage.

I built one and can grill, bake, smoke, and I can pack all the
of the parts, except the Smokey Joe, into the into the pot.

We use the Weber Q220. The Weber Q series is probably the most popular small grill on the market. It cooks like a big grill and is nearly indestructable.

Can you run a webber of the low pressure quick connect on the camper? or do you have to use the small tanks?

I have a large tank on the one at home, looking in to a mod to the one we carry in the 5er.

Yes. That's part of the popularity of their usage with the RV crowd (aside from, IMHO, they are dynamite grills!). In order for a grill to be converted to use the low-pressure ports on modern RVs, the regulator and the gas control valve have to be separate. The Weber Q series of grills are just the ticket. You unscrew the regulator from the control valve, screw on a male quick-connect and use any standard or custom made length of quick-connect hose. I have 5 hoses that I use with the Q-120 and Campfire in a Can. 4', 2x10', 2x12' and one 20' along with a "T" quick-connect fitting. The "T" and all the hoses allows me a multitude of placement options for running the grill alone, the campfire alone or both of them simultaneously. I also made the regulator that came off the grill into a quick-connect reattachment. If I want to go on a picnic "off-site", I can pop the regulator back on and take one of the little 1 lb cans with me.

No, you don't have to use those small tanks. I fuel my Q120 with two 6' gas hoses connected to give me 12' from one of the RV tanks (got the hoses at CW). The other RV tank fuels the RV so my wife can cook inside while I'm grilling outside. It's better than carrying those small propane bottles.

We have the Coleman little round bugger that you put water into the base to keep clean up a breeze. It also folds up into a small bag for easy storage. We also have the Coleman 4 (or is it 5) in one cooking system. The grill with that works great too. This is a bit bigger but the crock pot accessory is well worth the extra room that it takes up. Both run on propane. We don't want to mess with the mess of charcoal
