Best Blackstone seasoning video I have seen. I seasoned my 17" Adventure Ready griddle with olive oil as he shows in the video putting the top in the oven at 450 degrees, doing the 3 steps and the end result looked like it was done at a factory. It does make your house smell a little scorchy for a day. Delaney did an awesome job with the video and was very clear and easy to follow. A+++
Great video. I had already seasoned ours outside. You are right it is spotty. So after watching yours, I seasoned again in the oven upside down. Now it is finished. We love it so far. Can't wait to use it camping.
Just a tip for seasoning things. I seasoned my 22" Blackstone inside my large Weber grill. My Weber will get hot enough and it allowed me to season the top, sides and bottom of the griddle. No real hot spots from the Blackstone burners just a nice consistent seasoning across the whole thing. I've used this method for several items that need seasoning with great results. Stay safe!
HOLY MOLY... I am so Glad to see this little Grill... How much do you think this weighs? Is it heavy? I am getting ready to move back to Albuquerque, New Mexico (US) in my 1972 Vintage Travel Trailer and I think this is just the ticket... So Happy (I think I have already said that... BAHAHAHA)
Debated switching to one of these myself, but the Coleman Fold n Go works so well for us and it takes up less storage space. Only 2 of us. We have an electric griddle we use when we need to cook two things at once.
The unboxing was very detailed and informative. Almost all my questions were answered by watching this video. The only thing I would add is that you can disconnect the gas tank apparatus from the unit itself after using and it will be safe. It will not leak gas because of a spring loaded feature built in to the nozzle. Top notch video Delaney!
I would love to see a follow up video at the end of your camping season on how well you enjoyed the Blackstone grill. I would also like your thoughts on the Blackstone vs the Coleman after having used them both. Thanks for all you do!
Wait... You can use this INSIDE your camper?? That would be GREAT (crack a window... gas fumes) Thank you so much for sharing this GREAT (tiny) Griddle... NOW I want one outside and the tiny one inside... So Happy I found your video
I just seasoned my 17" Adventure series Blackstone the way you prescribed and it turned out amazing. Much better than my 28" I did the standard way. Seriously impressed. Thank you. Subbed.
Oh man!! Thanks for doing the due diligence in researching TH-cam videos so I don't have to, lol! Very thorough unboxing/ seasoning tutorial Patrick, looks like a dream!...there's no way I'm gonna let Chris see this tho. 😂🤣😂 Safe travels and see you #ondowntheroad (at breakfast! 😉) ~💜
Hey you Roamers! Don't know how wide your Boon oven is, but looks by Patrick's measurements it would be 17 x 17 for the cooktop. (Looks like an awesome griddle, huh?) ~💜
You are probably getting the measure of my humour by now and so I am so cak handed. By the time I got one of these things together, my holiday would be over!!! 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
I got one of these on your recommendation and now after the end of the summer I must say I love it. Two observations: the case is a must to carry it. It can be a beast without it. I also pack it in my truck bed easier to reach and grab. Also I love the grill because no pots and pans. I’ve set a backpacking teapot on it for hot water. Thanks for the review.
Not cast iron, rolled steel. Nice video. Weber uses ceramic coating on their griddles but food sticks it seems. May get one of these to have dedicated griddle for my outdoor cooking.
I watch this video twice. Just finished seasoning my 17-in Adventure Blackstone griddle. Did it exactly the way you described in the video. Looks great and was very easy! I had put it off thinking it was going to be a hassle. Thank you for making it so easy. thank goodness it was cool enough to open the windows! Ha! Now to use it this weekend camping!
Well done video, very clear and thorough. I have a 17" Blackstone arriving today and will actually have to do my seasoning at the campground. Looking forward to having not only burgers and dogs, but now bacon, pancakes, and eggs, all cooked outside without smoking out our camper.
Nice unboxing video. Just bought a new 17 from Camping World and it was the original design with grease drawer in front. Took it camping last month and I couldn't get the grease to fall into the drawer due to some alignment issues out of the box. I returned it but did enjoy the 2 meals I cooked. I think this one with external drip pan in the back is the way to go. Thanks
Be sure to confirm that the top cast iron aligns/fits into the base unit holes before you waste your time with seasoning it. I went through the full seasoning process only to discover mine was a couple millimeters off. I had to muscle it on and off by practically bending the the base unit walls .. Returned to Walmart for an exchange.
Great video - You'll love the blackstone! I had a 22" for about a year, and just replaced it with the 36". Grills are still nice, but I cook 80% of my stuff on the griddle now! Subbed!
What did you do at the end of the video? Did you coat it with another light layer of oil after cleaning it before putting it away to keep the steel fresh for as long as possible?
We’ve got the original 17” model. Like you we were limited to what size would fit through the camper’s storage bay. I like the grease catch being in the back on these new models rather then scraping grease toward the user. If you ever find the spark igniter isn’t working check the distance from the wire to the flame tube. Per Blackstone it should be between 1/8 and 1/4”.
We have watched 2 of your videos and will be purchasing a 17" tabletop Blackstone very soon. The only question I have at this point is whether I should get the hood. What's your advice ?
Quickly saw the Blackstone on another RV channel so I searched it up and saw your video. Just wanted to say thanks for the review as was very helpful. Will be putting it on the list.
Going on a year now and only thing is the print on the front washes off. I have used it dozens of times now at the ski resort, disc golf course, and friends house. I use a plastic folding table and I have a BS soft case for it. Tip: turn the knob slowly so the gas fills the tubes before spark hits.
Thank you so much for the video!! Great tips on seasoning, I think folks will find this method much more effective than seasoning ON the burner. Do you still use yours now 3 years later and have you encountered any major issues?
Great video! Thank you! I have two questions....never seasoned cast iron or rolled steel with olive oil - is that recommended from Blackstone? Is there an advantage over other traditional cooking oils? Second, have you cooked a steak on it and if so, how does it taste? I have a Coleman fold-n-go and just love how it cooks a steak...wondering about a steak on a griddle? Burgers and Dogs? Shish-Ka-Bob? Thank you!
Great review Patrick! I did not realize there was a newer model with the grease trap in the back. I almost bought the older model by mistake. Thanks so much for sharing! 👍😎
You can also do it on a regular grill outside to avoid smoking up the house. I did mine on my 3 burner Weber with the Blackstone seasoning mix. It came out perfect. Great video, thanks for sharing!
Flaxseed oil does the best job for seasoning the griddle! And cooking with it keeps your griddle top black and slick, and cleanup is a breeze. I use flaxseed oil on my 22” Blackstone and the griddle top on it is as slick as glass.
Checked out your video Meet me in Montana saw you cooking with this grill got me interested in buying one myself.Did you end up replacing your old grill with Blackstone. Think i will invest in one myself
I learned about mighty paw car restraints from watching one of your videos. I think your two beautiful little dogs would enjoy look-out booster seats. I had some for my miniature schnauzers and they loved them.
I didn't see any followups to this. I have a 22" Adventure.. but, It's too heavy and bulky to bring along on my trips. So, two questions. How has it continued to work for you in the RV..? Second.. do you know how much it weighs? I'm 82 and not as burly as I once was.
We are still using it today both at home and in our RV. We love it. It's the only grill we carry in our RV. It weighs about 21#. I have a carry case that I keep it in.
Good job Patrick!! I have the 22" on my Amazon wish list. The larger one because it will be my husband and 3 maybe 4 teenagers camping with us this summer.
Thank you! I like the 22” because it has two thermostats so you can cook at different temperatures. If it would have fit in the trailer outdoor storage, I would have went with it.
@@TravelswithDelaney yeah, I have to measure my basement door opening and see the same think but we have a 272 BH T.T so we could always put it up one of the bigger beds if need be.
Thank you for this. I'm new to outdoor griddles, especially the propane kind. Just bought one of these from Walmart yesterday and am anxious to use what you have taught me. I do think I like Steve's (below) idea of seasoning t determine hot spots. Again thinks for your detailed, visually clear video.
@@TravelswithDelaney Bare in mind my comment about the quality of your instruction, that comes from a lifetime educator. We're talking 46 years K-20. Really top level.
@@akadrgadget Thank you! I really appreciate those comments. I have been teaching at the community college for 23 years so I think that has helped me with making these videos.
I just bought one and it is slightly different. There are “nuts” packaged and attached to the feet . No longer is there a threaded insert for the feet. You can also remove the grills flame control knob and store it inside as well for a smaller footprint for storage. For seasoning I used the three step, three temp method also in the oven. Oh, and before seasoning I sanded my griddle surface to make it very smooth and flat.
I am not sure how hot it actually gets but I can tell you there are spots on the grill that get hotter than others which is nice. According to the product description online: Thick rolled-steel surface for excellent heat retention and distribution
Man those Blackstone grills are super popular right now.. may have to pick one up myself. I have seasoned many dutch ovens.. so familiar with that process... looks great and I love the size on that one. Looking forward to seeing how it works for you guys.. Patrick.. you are costing me money now with all the cool stuff.. haha Thanks for another great video!
Best time to save money, is during holidays, and change of seasons. I bought mine for $35.00 during 4th of july week. and bought my first one for $49.00.
Thank you Mitch! Yes...we still have it and love it. Its been two years and no issues. We use it both on the road in the RV and here at home. The 17” works perfect for us and the size is great for taking in the RV.
We just have one of those portable domes we put pver food that we want to steam. a full grill hood would not fit in our case. they might make a special case for those units
I seasoned mine using a propane camp burner, rotating it around to make sure all areas got seasoned well. Was camping when I unboxed mine. I love my griddle when camping.
Hi! I just bought this. Do you prefer to leave the 1lb propane tank attached or take it off every time. I took mine off and there was a pop. Not sure if that is normal or not. It’s my first time using the smaller tanks. I’ve googled and it said that noise is normal. It’s a release of the gas.
Thus far... we have always made campfires for cooking on (we don’t even cook in the RV except for oatmeal 🤣) We do have a grill from our boat we have brought along on occasion... this seems like a great solution! Thanks for the informative video Patrick!
You’re going to love your Blackstone, we love ours. Grab those dehydrated hash browns from Costco for your next trip, I promise they will be a big hit. My secret was using the leftover fat from frying up bacon 🥓
Great video! Appreciate the seasoning in the oven; regardless of the "smokieness" you have. The overall seasoning quality overrules that minor problem. How difficult is it to dispose the small 1 pounder propane bottles? Seems that might be a problem, to me. I'd consider carrying a 20 lb LP bottle (the the truck) with an accessory hose, to overcome that issue. Very helpful video; keep up the good work. Look forward to seeing more of your "real life" B'stone Griddle vids. Y'all Be Safe!
Thanks for the great video! I haven't received mine yet but thought I'd see what You Tube had to say about it. I had planned on seasoning it outside directly on the flame but looks like I'll be using my oven!
Hello From Maine! Watched your video last night and went to the Walmart and we bought the 22” model, I wanted to make sure we have plenty of room on the grill, I love the flame pattern in it, mine came with the 22” griddle, steel cover, and the table! We got it for $147.00 at our local Walmart, I bought some accessories too, going to season it this after noon just like you did! Thank-you for the awesome review Patrick, Subbed! Keep up the great videos...... ps, what did you clean the griddle surface with prior to seasoning it please?
im curious how long a propane cylinder lasts I know it all depends on how much you use the Griddle. Just wonder if the manufacturer gives a general summation how long the 1lb tank will last?
Thanks for showing this! I like the idea of having a grill but I would also like the option of a griddle to do breakfast. I might have to check this one out. ~Carla
What did I do without this for so long?2 pieces of French Toast at a time ?20 minutes for 10 pancakes ?NO MOREthis griddle is awesomeTook some time to season before first use th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHM5jmQoi4dbb0hoWSBs9hPhSwXUbGVG_ did brunch and hibachi dinner on Mother’s Day and it worked like a charmSturdy, well built and heats up quick. burners2-4 were a little stubborn but then lit up.Great addition to my patio.Bought the cover and it’s great, also bought the accessories kit - scraper is good but the spatulas are flimsy to be honest that’s my only negative.

Just had the exact same grill delivered and I am doing my seasoning exactly as you did today...can't wait to do my first cook on it tomorrow!
The exact measurements as built were extremely helpful and, that alone made the video completely worth it!
MAAYSUREments!! haha
You save the expensive propane by seasoning in the oven. But close the oven door each time between seasonings.
That's what I plan to do!!! Used to seasoning cast iron pans, so shouldn't be too much different! Crisco shortening.
Thank you for explaining the difference between the Adventure Ready model and the older model! The Adventure Ready 17" looks like a winner!
I just one this griddle! I’m going camping in a couple weeks so I’m grateful for your video!
You will love it! We have had ours for 3 years now and love it still.
I never thought about seasoning these in the oven. Looks so much easier and a much more even seasoning result. Thanks for sharing your tips.
good idea never thought about it makes sense even seasoning
Just a tip for seasoning things. I seasoned my 22" Blackstone inside my large Weber grill. My Weber will get hot enough and it allowed me to season the top, sides and bottom of the griddle. No real hot spots from the Blackstone burners just a nice consistent seasoning across the whole thing. I've used this method for several items that need seasoning with great results. Stay safe!

EXCELLENT IDEA...
14:20
That turned out really nice...
Oven... great idea.
Thank you very much!
The perfect way to season that top. I am finding I always need to buy things you do reviews on. I know I have a gadget problem lol. Great video, Lou
Awesome video! I followed all your steps and my BlackStone came out black on the first 30mins. I used avocado oil.
makes a lot sense with the seasoning in the oven you save a lot propane and comes out even seasoning I wish i would have known. Thanks for the info
HOLY MOLY... I am so Glad to see this little Grill...
How much do you think this weighs? Is it heavy?
I am getting ready to move back to Albuquerque, New Mexico (US) in my 1972 Vintage Travel Trailer and I think this is just the ticket...
So Happy (I think I have already said that... BAHAHAHA)
Great video! Thanks for info.
Debated switching to one of these myself, but the Coleman Fold n Go works so well for us and it takes up less storage space. Only 2 of us. We have an electric griddle we use when we need to cook two things at once.

Wait... You can use this INSIDE your camper??
That would be GREAT (crack a window... gas fumes)
Thank you so much for sharing this GREAT (tiny) Griddle...
NOW I want one outside and the tiny one inside...
So Happy I found your video
We don’t use the Blackstone in the RV….just outside. I believe they have an electric version that is designed for inside usage
@@TravelswithDelaney
Thank you for that information...
Excellent
I just seasoned my 17" Adventure series Blackstone the way you prescribed and it turned out amazing. Much better than my 28" I did the standard way. Seriously impressed. Thank you. Subbed.

Safe travels and see you #ondowntheroad (at breakfast! 😉) ~💜
I use mine all the time. You'll really enjoy it. I've got a 17 inch with the slide out front greese trap. Works about the same.
We love ours too! Used it all summer on our 7 weeks camping out west. We even use it here at the house as well
Wow tks for sharing, tomorrow I will go to Walmart, I'm impressed. See you next time.
A video with love! Great !!!!
You will love cooking on it. Just for your info, it is rolled steel, not cast iron. But seasoned about the same.
It’s so heavy that I thought it was cast iron, too!
Thank you for this detailed explanation and video. You have sold me on this griddle.
Out standing. Watched a lot of youtube on seasoning. Used your method worked great...p.s. I watch all your videos. Thank professor... happy camping.
Thank you! We have had our Blackstone for 2 years now and still love it! We use it both on the road and at home.
Next on our list! Quick question-do you think the top would fit in our small RV oven to do the seasoning treatment?
Hey you Roamers! Don't know how wide your Boon oven is, but looks by Patrick's measurements it would be 17 x 17 for the cooktop. (Looks like an awesome griddle, huh?) ~💜
You are probably getting the measure of my humour by now and so I am so cak handed. By the time I got one of these things together, my holiday would be over!!! 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
LOL!!
I got one of these on your recommendation and now after the end of the summer I must say I love it. Two observations: the case is a must to carry it. It can be a beast without it. I also pack it in my truck bed easier to reach and grab. Also I love the grill because no pots and pans. I’ve set a backpacking teapot on it for hot water. Thanks for the review.
We still love ours as well after using it all summer.
Not cast iron, rolled steel. Nice video. Weber uses ceramic coating on their griddles but food sticks it seems. May get one of these to have dedicated griddle for my outdoor cooking.

We really like ours and are even using it here at house. It holds a lot of food and does a nice job of cooking.
Nice unboxing video. Just bought a new 17 from Camping World and it was the original design with grease drawer in front. Took it camping last month and I couldn't get the grease to fall into the drawer due to some alignment issues out of the box. I returned it but did enjoy the 2 meals I cooked. I think this one with external drip pan in the back is the way to go. Thanks
We have had ours now for 2 full camping seasons and still love it. We use it here at the house as well.
Be sure to confirm that the top cast iron aligns/fits into the base unit holes before you waste your time with seasoning it. I went through the full seasoning process only to discover mine was a couple millimeters off. I had to muscle it on and off by practically bending the the base unit walls .. Returned to Walmart for an exchange.
Great video - You'll love the blackstone! I had a 22" for about a year, and just replaced it with the 36". Grills are still nice, but I cook 80% of my stuff on the griddle now! Subbed!
That is what I'm hoping to do...
What did you do at the end of the video? Did you coat it with another light layer of oil after cleaning it before putting it away to keep the steel fresh for as long as possible?
just purchased one for the RV to !! cnt wait to use it
I love my Adventure Ready 22 inch. It has dual burners which come in handy.
If we could have fit the 22" in the outdoor storage on our trailer, we would have bought that one . The dual burners would be nice.
We’ve got the original 17” model. Like you we were limited to what size would fit through the camper’s storage bay. I like the grease catch being in the back on these new models rather then scraping grease toward the user.
If you ever find the spark igniter isn’t working check the distance from the wire to the flame tube. Per Blackstone it should be between 1/8 and 1/4”.

We don’t have the hood and are ok without it. Some people really like the hood.
I just got me a new royal gourmet 3 burner gas griddle for Christmas and I love it want a smaller 1 to take camping with us

Thanks for watching! I actually like having that grease tray on the back of the grill.
Just ordered one about a half hour ago. Can't wait for it to arrive. I will definitely be using that seasoning method.
We have used ours for almost 2 years now and still love it.
Great vid going to be using mine in the San Bernardino forest soon!
Did the Cover & Carry Bag fit?
Yes and we still use both 4 years later.
Great video!! Now I'm hungry! Those veggies...yum!!
You can also do it on a regular grill outside to avoid smoking up the house. I did mine on my 3 burner Weber with the Blackstone seasoning mix. It came out perfect. Great video, thanks for sharing!
Flaxseed oil does the best job for seasoning the griddle! And cooking with it keeps your griddle top black and slick, and cleanup is a breeze. I use flaxseed oil on my 22” Blackstone and the griddle top on it is as slick as glass.
I was told that the lid for the Adventure 17" tabletop griddle is not hinged like the older model and you cannot use it when cooking. Is this correct?
This is on sale for $80 at Walmart should I grab it? Seems perfect size for my wife and I
That is a great price! We love ours after 3 years.
Great Video.will be a good Father Day gift . thanks
Hope you’re both doing well Steve!
Looking to get one soon. Thanks for the video! Do you refill your propane canisters? Really easy to do.
I didn’t realize you could. I’ll have to look into that.
Oven seasoning was exactly what I was planning.
Checked out your video Meet me in Montana saw you cooking with this grill got me interested in buying one myself.Did you end up replacing your old grill with Blackstone. Think i will invest in one myself
We did replace the old grill with the Blackstone and we love it. Been using it for almost two years both in the RV and here at home.
Great video! Veggies for the first cook?? I thought for sure it was going to be BACON!! haha. Thank you!
Bacon would have made more sense! LOL
Olive oil is the best to season… I just got mine, hope my husband doesn’t suck all of the joy out of my purchase!
We love ours still! Use it both in the RV and here at home.
I learned about mighty paw car restraints from watching one of your videos. I think your two beautiful little dogs would enjoy look-out booster seats. I had some for my miniature schnauzers and they loved them.
We may have to look into them. They both love to look out.
Thank you, very informative! Best video I have seen yet. I want one for my RV.

Interesting, I just brought one and the legs came with a nut instead of screw in. But I don't think that is an issue.
How large is it with the drip tray? I am thinking about making a permanent place for this in my cabinetry.
great video glad you researched the best way to season it saved me alot of time
Thank you!
Good job Patrick!! I have the 22" on my Amazon wish list. The larger one because it will be my husband and 3 maybe 4 teenagers camping with us this summer.

@@TravelswithDelaney thank you. I was concerned the bottom would get to hot. I appreciate your response
Do you ever wish that it had more than one burner for easier control of griddle heat , say one side cooler than the other ?
No…for us this one has worked great. I find the outside runs cooler than the center so I just move food around as needed to control temperature
Hi Patrick. Great video as always. Is your 17 inch Blackstone grill still working for you? Any consideration of moving up to the larger 22 inch unit?
Thank you Mitch! Yes...we still have it and love it. Its been two years and no issues. We use it both on the road in the RV and here at home. The 17” works perfect for us and the size is great for taking in the RV.
I love this griddle. A must have!
Do you recommend a hood and would that plus a hood continue to fit the carry bag?
We just have one of those portable domes we put pver food that we want to steam. a full grill hood would not fit in our case. they might make a special case for those units
I seasoned mine using a propane camp burner, rotating it around to make sure all areas got seasoned well. Was camping when I unboxed mine. I love my griddle when camping.
Hi! I just bought this. Do you prefer to leave the 1lb propane tank attached or take it off every time. I took mine off and there was a pop. Not sure if that is normal or not. It’s my first time using the smaller tanks. I’ve googled and it said that noise is normal. It’s a release of the gas.
We now use a hose to a quick connect on our trailer and that uses propane from our RV tanks.
It's normal when you disconnect its the excess that makes the pop spund
Thus far... we have always made campfires for cooking on (we don’t even cook in the RV except for oatmeal 🤣) We do have a grill from our boat we have brought along on occasion... this seems like a great solution! Thanks for the informative video Patrick!
I just got a new blackstone . You seasoned it in your oven . How well did that work out?
You’re going to love your Blackstone, we love ours. Grab those dehydrated hash browns from Costco for your next trip, I promise they will be a big hit. My secret was using the leftover fat from frying up bacon 🥓
We are loving the Blackstone Grill! We've used it several times here at the house already!
Asparagus coated with olive oil sprinkled with Trader Joe’s 21 seasoning salute even people that don’t eat asparagus will love it South East Michigan
Sounds yummy!
Great video! Appreciate the seasoning in the oven; regardless of the "smokieness" you have. The overall seasoning quality overrules that minor problem. How difficult is it to dispose the small 1 pounder propane bottles? Seems that might be a problem, to me. I'd consider carrying a 20 lb LP bottle (the the truck) with an accessory hose, to overcome that issue. Very helpful video; keep up the good work. Look forward to seeing more of your "real life" B'stone Griddle vids. Y'all Be Safe!
We actually bought the hose adapter and just hook it up to the 20# propane on our trailer.
Good info. Looking at getting a Blackstone Griddle. New friend to your channel. Thanks for sharing.
Welcome! We have really enjoyed our Blackstone both camping and at home.
Thanks for the great video! I haven't received mine yet but thought I'd see what You Tube had to say about it. I had planned on seasoning it outside directly on the flame but looks like I'll be using my oven!
We love ours still! We use it both in the RV and here at home.
Great video! Thanks!
Awesome video. Do you usually leave the propane tank with it or do you remove it before traveling? Thanks
We don’t use the little tanks anymore. We plug either into a 20# tank at home or use the quick connect on our RV.
Hello From Maine! Watched your video last night and went to the Walmart and we bought the 22” model, I wanted to make sure we have plenty of room on the grill, I love the flame pattern in it, mine came with the 22” griddle, steel cover, and the table! We got it for $147.00 at our local Walmart, I bought some accessories too, going to season it this after noon just like you did! Thank-you for the awesome review Patrick, Subbed! Keep up the great videos...... ps, what did you clean the griddle surface with prior to seasoning it please?
From what i have seen on other video's....just soap and water.
im curious how long a propane cylinder lasts I know it all depends on how much you use the Griddle. Just wonder if the manufacturer gives a general summation how long the 1lb tank will last?
You should also season the underneath of the griddle. I did mine in my Weber outdoor grill so as not smoke up the kitchen.
Good tips! Thank you
Great review, really enjoyed you!
Thank you!
can the gridde be put in the oven after seasoning with the blackstone seasoning conditioner
I do not know. I have not done that myself
How you still like it my friend. I just got my today and cant wait to use it. Happy holidays my friends
We absolutely love it! Used it for 2 summers now and beside using it in the RV, we also use it here at home.
I wouldn't use evoo. The smoke point isn't quite high enough.
Thanks for showing this! I like the idea of having a grill but I would also like the option of a griddle to do breakfast. I might have to check this one out. ~Carla
We are using this instead of our Coleman Grill this summer. We will see how it goes. So far we love it.
