I have a Weber Q2000. Works great. I keep it stored with a cover on the rear bumper and has worked for years.
Small portable barbecues for camping
Hello all, so we have had the worst luck with trying to find one of these small barbecues that take the little green propane bottles for camping. They all seem to run extremely hot even on low, or they just fall apart. We use them a lot when camping as we eat quite well,love to BBQ salmon when we're out there! Cabela's has one on sale right now for $99. Does anyone had an experience with these? Thanks

Nice, Will look for that oneI have a Weber Q2000. Works great. I keep it stored with a cover on the rear bumper and has worked for years.
You might want to check out Blackstone portable griddles. Griddles are more versatile than grills for camp cooking, imo.
I have a Weber GoAnywhere. It's been good for 20 years. I just looked and they have a model that vents on top as well now. I added hinges to the top because it's a bit of a pain otherwise to have the grill open otherwise since you have to hold the top or have somewhere to set it. I have upgraded it with a new stainless burner cover and cast iron grate.
Weber "Q-Series" leads the pack.
A friend just bought a 1200 size for glamping and loves it.
You can feed them off of a larger tank if you wish and they are rebuildable (read parts available).
A Chinese table top grill might not have parts available.

Webers rarely go on sale but with Memorial Day coming up there may be a deal somewhere.Thanks ! Cant go wrong with a weber
I went with the Blackstone griddle and have zero regrets. Much more versatile in my opinion.
I have one of black rectangular weber bbqs that works great, had it for close to 10 years now. All of the off-l brand ones I have been around always run very hot.

Masterbuilt portable gravity series charcoal grill, puts these others to shame. I will never go back to Weber gas or any other. They're not high end but the cooking, temp control and end product with good charcoal and/or real wood, nothing else compares short of a true offset smoker and grill.
Is it really Barbecuing when using propane ,maybe Grilling or Cooking 😳🤔,unless you use the Oak Flavored L.P.Fuel 🥩🍣🍔
This was my first thought. The small Weber Kettle is a wonderful camping bbq. Save the green bottles for lanterns.
Whatever you get, plumb it for a large propane tank. Keep a few little bottles around for emergencies only.
Cathunter. Grilling is direct heat, BBQ is indirect with wood and capable of low temperatures, long cook times. There is no substitute.

Another vote for the Weber Q1200 or comparable. Solidly built, the grate is cast iron, easily transported, and uses either propane canisters or large tanks. You can put it on a picnic table, or a stand built specifically for it. We have both the 1200 and 2000 size.
While these are still a little hot even on low, the secret to turning them further down, is to turn the knob the opposite direction from low towards off, and you'll notice the flame goes way down just before going off.

Thanks, leaning towards the Weber Q series. I actually found one on OfferUp barely used!Another vote for the Weber Q1200 or comparable.

You are only BBQing when you are using smoke. Anything else is simply "grilling".Is it really Barbecuing when using propane ,maybe Grilling or Cooking 😳🤔,unless you use the Oak Flavored L.P.Fuel 🥩🍣🍔
