The Char-Broil® 1-Burner Portable Propane Gas Grill is a great on-the-go grill for tailgating, beach parties and camping. Take it along wherever you go and enjoy grilled chicken, burgers and brats hot-off-the-grill. When you want an easy option for delicious grilled food you can take on the road, go with the Char-Broil® 1-Burner Portable Propane Gas Grill.
GAS GRILL: Powered by liquid propane gas, this grill runs on a 1-pound propane gas tank, not included. It reaches cooking temperatures quickly, delivers high temps and maintains even heat.
COOKING AREA: Grill up to 10 burgers, 4 chicken breasts or 14 brats on a 240-square-inch grate.
BTU RATING: This grill has a 9,500 BTU rating. *BTU is a measurement of energy used by your grill and is not related to how hot it will get. Grills with lower BTUs burn less fuel to cook your food.
GRATES: These wire grates are porcelain-coated to resist rust and make them easier to clean. They’re lightweight, retain heat to cook food evenly and leave impressive grill marks.
TEMP GAUGE: The lid-mounted temperature gauge displays accurate temps, so you always know the cooking temperature inside your grill.
IGNITION: The Piezo igniter creates a spark at the burner that lights the grill when you press the button and turn the control knob.
CONTROL KNOB: The control knob powers the grill on & off and adjusts cooking temperatures. Turn clockwise to increase the heat and counterclockwise to decrease.
GREASE TRAY: A removable grease tray catches oil drippings and slides out for easy cleaning.
ASSEMBLY: Minimal assembly is required. Step-by-step instructions are included in the Assembly Guide.
WARRANTY: 1-year grates, lid, firebox and other parts

Title: Easy to Assemble
Review: My husband and I love this little Char-Broil Grill. We used our old one - identical to this one - for years until it practically fell apart. It is easy to assemble and hook up to propane. Being just two of us we no longer needed a large grill. With our first Char-Broil Grill, we bought a portable grill table to set the grill upon for easy cooking as well as being able to roll the table under the roof out of rain. This is the perfect grill for us.

Title: Worked well
Review: I just got back from 11 days on Lake Erie for the CMP National Match. I took this grill in addition to a flat top to cook for our group of 5. For the price, this thing is hard to beat. I used it daily for hot dogs, brats, carne asada, Italian Sausage and more. On match days, we even took it to the range to cook lunch in the parking lot. As noted, the cooking surface isn't as even as a multi-burner grill. Keeping an eye on your food and moving things around as necessary solves that problem. It was actually helpful to be able to move food to the edges to keep it warm.Ease of assembly will depend on your abilities. I'm mechanical, so putting it together took much less than 15 minutes. All parts were in the box. A screw driver is required. I knew to be aware of the loose fitting for the regulator. It truly is designed to be that way so don't get any wise ideas with washers, etc. This is a safe design and altering it will affect performance and safety.I just finished cleaning it. The enameled burner cover cleaned up with dish soap and a sponge. I got the loose bits off of the enameled grate and threw it in the dishwasher. The inside floor of the grill cleaned up nicely with degreaser and a garden hose. The grease cup also cleaned up easily with some dish washing detergent and a sponge. After it dries, I'll pack it up for the next adventure.The only issue I ran into was the piezo igniter. It is wired per the instructions and I see a spark but I was never able to successfully light the stove with it. I never go camping without a lighter so it wasn't a huge deal and we didn't have to eat raw meat. I would have gotten the stove without the igniter but, having it, I did expect it to work. I'll tinker with it before the next outing.I would recommend this grill. I'm sure there are better ones out there but I didn't find any at this price. I've had other one burner compact grills and this one is the best of the lot. I'd buy it again.

Title: Good, HOT Little Gas BBQ!
Review: Good Little BBQ!Grill gets very hot (500-625° with lid closed) & food is close to the flame so you have to move things around a lot so you don't burn them (i.e. with longer-cooking foods like potatos).With a little fine adjustment i was able to turn down the flame pretty low without it going out. Other reviews said it could use a wider flame shield & i agree. I suggest if it were wider AND had holes in half of it (like along one long side) you could move food to a cooler area to cook slower.As it is out of the box, the coolest spot is directly over the heat shield. Around the sides of the grill get hot! Have an oven mitt handy & a Phillips head screwdriver so you can re-tighten the front plastic handle screws after your first hot cooking session.This is a Great Grill for steaks & burgers though! I will definitely take it camping!FYI: Underneath the bbq unit gets quite hot so make sure it's not on a delicate surface, etc, as it could possibly melt/damage a plastic table or rubberized tablecloth. I put a couple of big ceramic floor tiles under mine & it makes a great spot to keep your food warm wrapped in foil.I hooked mine up to a larger 5 gallon tank with an adapter hose i got off Amazon. Works great! For camping I'd probably just bring a few of the small propane bottles.Grill was pretty straighforward & simple to put together (45 min-1 hr), but i am good with mechanical assembly of things like this.The regulator Does turn freely once "locked" in place. It is a loose fit, but it does not affect the performance or flame. It's very easy to turn & remove it for transport. (You can also leave it still attached to the small bottle or tank hose. Just make sure gas is shut off or else disconnect bottle/tank completely if you smell any gas).Overall, I am Very happy with this little grill. It will be nice to have for portable summer grilling!

Title: Love this grill
Review: My 3rd time for buying this grill. I use them Alot. And they work great and do exactly what I want. I tried a different grill a few months ago and after about 5 grills it just didn't compare so I went back to this

Title: Perfect size.
Review: A little more to the putting together part than I thought, lots of screws, but once together a great size to grill on. The grill area has a lot of room, cooked burger ‘n dogs the first go round. Easy to use and adjust the temp. Highly recommend.

Title: Must assemble
Review: There was more assembly involved than I expected but it was fairly easy! I wasn't expecting to have to assemble the ignitor and that was slightly daunting for someone who's never assembled a grill. It was really easy though. Just followed the instructions. I got this because I wanted something that I could put on a table on my patio but also take camping. We took it on a camping trip and it was great but a little larger than I would have liked. Honestly, I think it was better off just using my normal camp stove and grilling on the fire. Just not super compact for camping if you are packing in a car. It's a great little barbecue though! He heats up very fast.

Title: Nice BBQ, wish the igniter actually worked.
Review: Nice BBQ. Heavy built, large size, just what we need for camping. We put it together and tried lighting it as soon as we got it. We could not get it to light with the igniter, It has a spark about one third of time, but a very weak spark that won't start anything. It is very tiny, doesn't shoot out at all, and doesn't start anything even when the gas was left on for too long (don't try this at home!), we could smell gas everywhere, and it probably should have exploded! Very disappointing for an otherwise high quality BBQ. I you don't mind having to light it with a match, or buying your own better quality igniter, I recommend it so far (haven't cooked a steak on it yet), but if not-keep looking.

Review: Esa conexión se ve bastante mal, no se asegura y es gas. No se siente algo que quisiera usar con mis hijos cerca y no es algo de lo que quiera estar cerca por esa conexión. No puedo creer que vendan un producto que usa gas con una conexión tan insegura como esa y el manual no es claro.

Review: It needs to slow burner down more for not so hot cooking.
