We will be fulltiming soon and I am looking to buy a portable gas grill. Would you please tell the kind you use and what you like and dislike about it.

Weber BabyQ 100 is what we have. Quality grill, cast iron grates, heats quickly...what more can you say ?

You will get many good reviews for the Weber Q grills. I just recieved a Weber Q200 as a gift and I have to say I was impressed with the build quality. It is a Tad heavy for a portable due to the cast iron grate.

Ditto the Weber Q100 -

I bought one for my husband last year as a fathers day gift. We have used it since. Mostly we cook 4 burgers+ but it could easily handle more. We keep it at home and use it on top of a cart/table (retail apx 40 but bought on sale and used 20% off coupon and linens and things for end cost of 25$). When we RV we put it in the storage compartment. The propane canisters are sold at Home Depot (plumbing section) and have been easy to keep in supply.

My husband is very happy with it. Shop around for best price.

We had 10 burgers and a foil bag with sliced Vidalia onion and butter on ours this past Friday evening...all burgers cooked well and evenly.

We are very happy with our Coleman Road Trip. They have two versions of it, a red one and a blue one. The red is a bit more economical, but the blue is more stable. We have the blue...

I agree completely.

I have tried many gas grills trying to find the "right one". I have used the Olympian, Coleman Roadtrip, and many others and I have found the Weber BabyQ (120) to be just what I was looking for: has built-in drip pan, can be used on a picnic table without burning the table, cast-iron grates and body, handy side tables, optional griddle, etc.

Weber Q. Pick a size. We use a 200.
