We also use the Webber gas bbq. It hooks up to a Colman propane tee then to a 2 gallon tank, I also hook up a stove & a lantern. That way everything runs off of the same tank.

Where did you get a griddle for your Baby Q? All I have ever seen is the open grill design. I use my Baby Q almost daily, camping or home. Its light and easy to handle.

The Aussie is looking like a good supplement tho. :hihi:

For those owning charcoal grills, do you get rid of the ash by dumping it in the fire pit at your campsite? I'm assuming this is what you would do but want to make sure before I decide to go the route of charcoal. It would certainly be my preference over gas (i.e. better tasting food) but am interested to know about clean-up.

Almost every campground has a "hot coals" can(s) located in a clear section. I douse them with some water or wait until the morning then dump them.

Smokey Joe

Norty1, don't you love that Smokey Joe for briskets, chicken, ribs, pork butts, etc.? I bought the larger size for home and we have given it a real workout. Excellent results every time.

If you haven't seen it, check out this link:

http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/

It has tons of good recipes, methods, etc. that will only make your SJ experience better.

And I've used it that way, too. But it's so puny I can't imagine it causing issues. I've got in the garage to clean it because teriyaki chicken can do such damage to that grill and it caught on fire many times this last trip. But the flames were still so little that I wasn't alarmed. Perhaps I should be though....

I use a Magma with "shore legs". It's been on my boat for a few years and we take it off the boat and use it camping.

The RVQ is not a favorite of many. I can not figure out why they even offer it as a option. Wait a minute, Disregard, I am trying to sell it.

The one I have is the Lil Smokey. I have had the 18 inch and the 22 inch version in the past. Never saw the Bullet.

You know what? You're right. My bad... it's called the Smokey Mountain Cooker. I saw "Smokey" and my brains fell out.

Smokey Joe Gold

http://www.amazon.com/Weber-40020-Sm.../dp/B00004RALP

If you get one, buy the GOLD version, not the silver. The lid has a clamp that secures it when traveling. You can get them at Home Depot or Lowes.

We have one just like this that I bolted a couple pieces of angle iron to the bottom so it won't tip over. We also have a Traeger pellet grill that I need to figure out how to stow in the trailer.

My husband just told me that we don't have the Jayco grill. RV Direct switched it out with another brand because there were so many complaints about the Jayco-supplied grill. I can't say that the grill they gave us was any better. Looking to replace it myself....

The other thing about ours is that it was mounted so high. The grill plate is about chest high for me, but would be too high for DW.

I have an RVQ for mine and is mounted under the awning. Never had problems.

I also bring my drum smoker to to smoke my favorite meats! :hihi:
