Thanks for all of the suggestions. We ended up getting a coleman gas grill to set on the picinc table. It's working great. We recieved as a gift about 7 christmas's ago a small charcoal grill from Breakstone. small compact yet when fully opened both sides can grill.... starting to show some wear now but if I could find another one would in a heartbeat. ]]> Thu, 06 Jun 2013 10:32:19 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=34033#34033 Grill suggestions : As someone who likes to cook,... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33938#33938 Author: Camper Bob

As someone who likes to cook, smoke, fry, etc. I would check out the BTU rating of each burner. Many of the grills only have 10,000 BTU's (British Thermal Units). The larger ones have up to 15,000 BTU's which heats water faster for boiling and cooking. Of course you can also get a free standing one or two burner setups that have about 30,000 BTU's each for that deep fryer for the turkey or any other large and fast cooking needs. They can be purchased for about $100 for a double at most discount stores. We have a 40 year old Coleman white gas stove and a Weber portable for steaks. Safe Travels.

We have just finished our first rpod 176t camping trip. We LOVE it. 4 kids (2 mine 2 neices) my loving wife and our puppy. We found that the rdome did have water co ing down in drips, but figured out that it was condensation from us, leave a cross breeze and that sorts ou the condensation problem.

I have the coleman with a grill and burner; love it; plenty of space to grill for two; make my coffee in morning so I don't have to wake pam up; I think around $75; easy storage; only down side it just isn't charcoal but I guess more environmentally friendly(but then you have the container waste)

I bought a Broil King Porta-Chef six years ago when we had the popup and its still going strong. Its a healthy 14,000 BTUs and has its own legs and I love BBQing on it. It breaks down into its own bag in two minutes and I store it under the dinette seat in the pod. It also sees regular winter use for tailgating when the gang goes snowboarding.]]> Mon, 20 May 2013 15:53:15 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33375#33375 Grill suggestions : We have a20+ year old 2-burner... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33365#33365 Author: P&M

We have a 20+ year old 2-burner propane Coleman stove that we use for most of our standard cooking, and we set that up on one end of the picnic table to cook outside with. That is supplemented with a $15 WallyWorld small round charcoal grill for doing steaks, foil packets, etc. And of course our cast iron for cooking on/around the fire. But we are not adverse to cooking inside on the stove top when it is really ugly outside, and we use the micro/conv oven a lot as well.]]> Mon, 20 May 2013 10:42:19 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33365#33365 Grill suggestions : The only one I know of that... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33328#33328 Author: furpod

They aren't just coming with the G models are they? I thought there were with all the newer models these days.

Either way it's nothing impressive. I might have 1 more season with it before it rusts completely apart.

@Furpod did you have any trouble with your hyperlink? Mine haven't worked when I've tried submitting them. Was wondering if it was a Google Chrome issue.

kymooses has a "G" model, they come with an out doors kitchen..

We still use our little Smokey Joe Weber for grilling, 40 year old Coleman 2 burn white gas stove for most cooking.. (as it should be)

Last weekend there was a couple a few sites over with a folding Hibachi Grill.. I liked it. Very compact when folded.

Like This.

Our old weber is great, but it is pretty tall.. Just sits so the slide can come in over it when traveling. But the folding deal could go under the trailer..

BTW, on some of the RV parts sites, you can buy a hanging propane grill and the attachment piece.. Would just need to add a line to feed it.

Never had a problem with the Dome leaking, in fact we only use it on rainy weekends (or week-long trips).

We might be called "cheap" or frugall.. But we picked up our second little gas bbq from wallyworld for ( I think) $30 when they go on sale. It fits nicely in the storage compartment and does the job from foil poatatoes, steaks, pork chops, french toast etc. When the one we are using now bites the dust we have the new one already to go. ]]> Fri, 17 May 2013 21:45:49 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33281#33281 Grill suggestions : When we bought our RP 175... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33280#33280 Author: Kickstart

When we bought our RP 175 we went looking for a Weber, which we've had before and really liked. Unfortunately we couldn't find one with the features we wanted that was squat enough to fit in our Pod storage compartment. We ended up with a Coleman RX which is big, but fits the compartment. It has both grill and griddle areas. It's very nice. In fact, it's the only grill we now own. We leave the stand at home, and when camping grill on the picknic table or tailgate. Either Weber or Coleman are good quality grills.]]> Fri, 17 May 2013 20:34:28 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33280#33280 Grill suggestions : You got a grill with your pod?... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3497&PID=33279#33279 Author: Jody

We have had our R-pod 171 since 2009 and love it. We used a little silicon spray in the dome track and have our time down to about 10 minutes for set up. We also previously had a pop-up with the attached outside gas grill and loved it. We now have a Weber Q which is compact and very handy, we use it all the time!

Enjoy!

Haven't replaced the one that came with our Pod yet. But I've seen a lot of people use these and I'm very fond of the reviews on them also.

This is what I would eventually get I think.

Happily camping in our new 176T that we picked up on Thursday. LOVING it except I really miss my mounted gas stove on my Pop UP. Hate cooking inside. Any suggestions on a compact grill with burners?

Obviously want something that can pack up easily. I usually use charcoal for grilling but do like to use a burner now and then

R-Pod is working great Just started raining and had a little trouble with the Dome, instructions were terrible... as if they were for a different canopy altogether but we got it up in the nick of time. Nice extra room especially when raining.

Just finished beef stroganoff that I cooked in my Lodge cast iron dutch oven over coals.. Yum...

Country Roads RV did an excellent job with our orientation and our trade in on our used Viking. Highly recommend them.
