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.

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.
