How to Fix a Portable Charcoal Grill

How to Fix a Portable Charcoal Grill

After cooking my dinner, I'd shut the side and top air vents thus suffocating the fire. I found I could get two, three, and sometimes four meals from a single load of charcoal (depending on cooking times). And, on picnics, the fire would be out and the charcoal grill "touchable" after about 15 minutes.

The portable charcoal grill is large enough to handle most meals for say 6 to 8 persons and even small (4-6 lb) chickens, but if you're cooking turkey, this isn't the portable charcoal grill for you. I'm now on my second "G-A" grill.

The first bounced around the world with me in Korea, Yemen, China, and the U.S. until the movers crushed it in 1993. Ended up contacting Weber directly when I couldn't find a replacement locally, and number 2 is in good shape after 8 years of rigorous use.

Learning how to use the vents to control heat on Portable Charcoal Grill.

My grate just died after about 10 years of heavy use. Rather then buy a replacement grate, I wasn't thinking and just purchased a whole new portable grill.

The next day I purchased a replacement grate online from the weber grill propane folks and that transaction was very smooth as has always been the case with Amazon.

So now I have two functioning portable grills. It seems to me that the food sits closer to the charcoal on this then it does full sized grills, so heat has never been an issue with mine, although the charcoal may loose it's heat a little faster as you can't really make a pile of charcoal or stack the brickets very much. I actually think it is easier to burn things on this weber grill propane then others.

Honestly though, this is the only weber grill propane I have any real experience with and I love the portability and often wrap it in a trash bag and take it to state parks for 'eating out.

How to Clean a Portable Charcoal Grill

When the ashes are cold, remove them from the collector pan beneath the grill.

• Allowing ashes to collect in the bottom of the grill for days or weeks will impede air flow and can collect moisture, causing your grill to rust.

• Don't worry too much about baked-on grease or juices that have collected on the walls of the lid or bottom of your grill; it has no effect on how well your grill will perform.
  

• Periodically use a wire brush to brush any flakes from the interior walls.

• If you really want to make your Portable Charcoal Grill shine, remove the ashes and grill grates. Hose the grill out, then scrub with warm, soapy water and a fine steel wool pad.

• You can also clean the grates and the exterior of the Portable Charcoal Grill with warm, soapy water and fine steel wool.
