My bride and I were given a coleman stove as a wedding gift, nothing says love like a Coleman. I sold it in a yard sale, still unopened, about 15 years later.

I really loved that thing!

OK, things are slow today

hence this posting, just to give y'all something to read.

Yesterday I grilled ribs, which required my larger grill. That above propane tank that I thought was low and swapped it out ... cooked...

Update

I just stumbled upon this old topic - but figured I'd update it.

I've used this grill probably 4 times a week since new, and just this past week changed out the first 20# propane tank. That's...

I can't believe it

but I've now relied upon my baby Q (with one exception) almost daily since it came home. I am totally impressed! with this little thing.

With my full sized rack of ribs being the exception -...

I think your original recommendation

for the smaller grill was correct and will generally fit my needs. So far its' done what I've asked (with adjustments) all but once. Those baby back ribs simply needed a larger cooking surface and...

Today was CHEAP hamburger meat (the best kind for this purpose)

and I'm mighty impressed- no flare ups, but a bit disappointed in that there wasn't room for the buns (which we like toasted golden brown).

Camper rules worked in that I used a regular toaster...

Weber stand

I went ahead and purchased one myself, figuring I'd rather have one and not need it than to need one and not have it. I also picked up a mat (to put below it) for those times I'd be using it alone -...

Yeah, it's pretty sneaky to underfill them

so as to disguise what would otherwise be a price hike, but that's marketing.

Still, I've come to prefer the quick in/out exchange system as compared to the olden times where I stood patiently by,...

Tonights challenge

Baby Q VS. steak

Oh my, I actually got better grill marks with the Baby than my bigger grill. Perhaps it's because the meat is closer to the heat and there are no middle flavorizing bars...

thanks for the common sense approach

which apparently I'm lacking. I typically decide what to eat by groping around in the freezer then adding to it.

I never considered pre-cooking nor pre-packaged stuff, duh? I did once think of...

tonights culinary treat was

a rack of baby back ribs. Sadly they were too big for the baby Q.
I guess I need to scratch that meal off the menu while camping.

Which brings up a big worry for me, how to buy and stock food...

Second use

and the chicken came out just fine. What really surprised me was there were no flare ups. I always! have flare ups when cooking chicken with the skin intact.

Being aware of that I did use the...

Finally

the constant rains have let up, now its between a drizzle and dry, however the yard is much too wet to walk through (it's like walking on a sponge). Too wet for this sissy family to camp - but not...

Thanks for that tip

I've been contemplating something to store it in - just undecided what other stuff I'd want to store WITH it (scrapper brush, tin foil, my propane hose extension).

Any additional ideas there?

that sounds like this one

that's taking up room until I find a better home for it.

Imagine that

"Go to the third from the last question on this webpage: Blue Rhino - Tank Exchange"

Well I'll be a monkeys uncle. I'll have to check the fine print next time.

less than full

I guess it's possible - but illegal - if they advertise it as 20#.

I can't imagine the bigger players (WallyWorld, Home Depot, Lowes, etc) would chance it. Thinking about it I BELIEVE that'd be...

Propane

Refill vs Exchange.

I used to refill my tanks but then switched over to exchanging them. Much easier/quicker and as I recall at a similar price.

I swapped out three tanks the other day, $16...

Propane filter - I never heard of such a thing.

I thought it was quite pure as it's delivered.
I've never had any problems but if I do then I'll look into it.

OK, I was wrong

I just ordered the Weber Q120 grill, its' portable table and a 6 foot long hose to feed the grill from a 20 pound propane tank instead of the throw-aways.

From Amazon - with FREE shipping and NO...

Thanks gents

I've looked at the alternatives that you've mentioned but my past Webers experience have sold me on another one ... unless there is a very good reason not to.

I think that 95% of the time the Q100...

Portable PROPANE grills

We grill often, perhaps 4 times week/year round. I'm fond of the Webers as I've had good long life out of them. My question for the community is ... can you recommend a great PORTABLE propane...
