If like mine you should have the BBQ in the bag, a mounting bracket, and a quick connect hose to connect to gas supply. The gas supply is at the right rear bumper. There is a shut off valve on the trailer connection. It took me a while to realize it was there with all the safety tags, etc., and I had a time getting the grill lit the first time.

Little cheezy to me. Grill won't fit in bag with mounting bracket attached. Bracket isn't too bad to take on and off after the first time, but would be nicer if it could stay attached to grill and just remove whole contraption from bumper mount.

Good luck

Thankyou for that paperwork the RVQ does seem to be a bit gimmicky I was hoping I could permanent mount it on that bumper thingy without the lame bracket

The way the rear bumper of any RV bounces, you'd destroy the "innerds" of most gas grills within the first few miles. The RVQ or Aussie aren't the most durable to begin with, permanently mounting them on the rear bumper is a sure-fire means to buying that Weber that you really wanted :whistling:

Actually our 2013 Cougar came with that type of mount attached right the rear wall of the TT. I believe they only did this on the 12/13 models of some Keystone TTs. Ours came with a Blue Rhino BBQ. Works great but cumbersome to store.

If it's anything like the one that came with our unit it's just dumpster fodder INHO. I modified the mount to hold a Smoke Hollow Vector Series Smoking Tabletop 3-Burner Gas Grill and would never trade it in. Many people swear by the Weber so do some research on the features you want. Unless the grill is a "rail mounted" grill you will need to get inventive on modifiying the mount.

I have the same grill mount, and like 66joej, mine is mounted to the rear wall of the trailer. If it was mounted on the bumper, I'd have removed it long ago, but I really don't want 6 big holes in my rear wall where the grill mount "used to be"....

So, I modified my grill mount adapter (the part that sits under the grill and hangs on the grill mount swing arm) by removing the 4 "leg catcher clamps". I installed a piece of aluminum angle iron front and rear, so the grill slips into the two "rails" rather than into the 4 leg catcher clamps. I was going to rivet a sheet of 0.032" aluminum sheeting to make it a "table/shelf" but so far the two rails seem to support the grill without any risk of it falling.

Once the Aussie grill finally dies, I'll probably go ahead and rivet that sheet aluminum on the bracket so it will support any grill that fits within the side braces.

I had one of those on my Passport 2810. Left the mounting bracket on the grill and stored them in the pass through.

Thanks! I was about to buy a bumper mounted grill. After reading this I realized that I don't want the headache.

I gave up on the bumber BBQ and bought the Blackstone Griddle and love it!
