I can say that Weber and Yuengling do make good mealtime partners.

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 three months of use! My four burner model used one tank a month.

Plus it's gone camping twice (very portable). Other than initial price, what's not to like about it? I'm extremely pleased with it.

NOTE: This propane tank is not slam empty, just close. Close enough that the baby Weber won't stay burning on a low setting. I've moved this tank over to the bigger grill - to see if it works any better there. Now I just need some ribs to try it out.

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 these ribs.

That was two full hours, on low. And so the tank soldiers on ...

This is sort of on this subject. I don't know if anyone has or even remembers the old style Coleman stoves that you had to pump up. I had one just laying around (I hate to throw anything away when it still works, just because it's just old) so I was fooling around with it, cleaning it up and such when my wife wanted me to go to Wal-Mart with her. I happened to go through the sporting goods dept. and in the section for Coleman stuff was a propane conversion kit for the old style stoves. I bought one and let me tell you, it works like a charm. You can either use the small bottles or buy a hose ans screw a 20# bottle to it. Converter costs around $10 to $15 depending where you live.

Happy camping,

Bear

I did that a couple of years ago. It saves on messing around filling and pumping the old tank and also provides a steady flame. While you were at Walmart you should have picked up a Coleman stove top coffee maker, it will make a 12 cup pot on top of the old stove. I just got one about a month ago and put it to the test on our last camping expedition. Purchase the Coleman Coffeemaker at Walmart.com. Save money. Live better. It's about $11 cheaper at Amazon.com.

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!

Bear,

Years ago I bought a table top at an auction to get an item in Carnival Glass which my wife and I are ardent collectors. Unbeknownst to me at the time the table top included an old Coleman #530 camp stove. I eventually cleaned it up and it works like a champ. A little history,the #520 was originally produced during WW2 and called a pocket stove. Over 1-million were produced for use during the war. Famed war correspondent Ernie Pyle ranked it right behind the jeep for its usefulness. Later the civilian version #530 was introduced as the perfect pal for hunting, fishing and camping and was produced from 1946 to 1949. I use it occasionally and it is perfect for brewing a pot of coffee or frying an egg when out in the wild. They are evidently fairly collectible as they are listed on eBay anywhere from $45 to $105. If nothing else it will come in handy during an emergency and is a good conversation piece.

Just hauled my old Char Broil with lifetime warranty to the recycler who took it home. I cannot thank you guys enough with your recommendation on the Webers!!!!

Bought the Q2200 with stand from Wally World and have used it about 10 times and IT WILL NOT FLARE UP!!!!!! The ultimate tests was the Boston Butt Pork roast I cooked Friday. It did nearly fill the catch-pan but the end result was awesome!!!

I think a little smaller model would be better for RV camping though but, we'll see!! THANKS AGAIN!!!!! Bob

Had Amazon send me a new Weber 1200 while camping. Best price and speed of delivery. My very old, cheap, grill finally gave up the fight.
Side trays and thermometer(an absolute necessity).

I do ribs that take 2+ hours to cook and it still does it well.
Grill size is very adequate for 2-3 people.

No flare ups and good collection for grease.

AAA rating from me!!!!! It isn't inexpensive. You get what you pay for!

Update: Now, I have a shiny purple baby Q1200 for the RV. It fits perfectly where I have hauled my SS portable we've had for years..... As soon as the College World Series is over, we'll try it out............ Geaux Tigers!!!!

I bought a stainless steel tabletop 20000 btu at Costco for $100 last week. Used it once for 7 burgers and it did really good. Seems to be made of heavier guage steel then the one I looked at at cabelas. Now I want a really long hose so I can use one of the front 20# propane bottles to use it without having to move the bottle.

My dream would be to take the inside cabnet in the bathroom and convert it so it was a slide out grill area on the outside. Have you seen those outback campers with the slide out kitchen?
