BTW, before you go and buy the T valve and the extra hose. Why not just give the BBQ a try first? You may not even like it. I mean, I like the Roadtrip but you may not.


Well...too late. I'm in the habit of shopping and researching online. After reading lots and lots of reviews I generally buy items unseen. Maybe not the best route, but usually there are return policies if the item is really not what I was hoping for.
I ended up buying the Roadtrip, griddle, burner, hoses and adapters needed to run from my main tank.
Overall it should make for a versatile cooking device, when inside or open fire doesn't cut it. Open fire cooking is nice, but with 2 little ones it's not always realistic.

Will do. First test will be in about a month when we head to Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH. They don't allow open fires, so I'm sure it'll get plenty of use.

I have a Roadtrip grill that I bought back in 2002. I'm not sure if they've changed much since then, but I don't find the Roadtrip to be easy to clean at all. I still like it, and I've got the grill, griddle and stove top burner attachments and use them all, but I think cleanup (when using the grill, not the griddle or stovetop burner) is a big pain. We have the adaptor kit to hook up to our big tank, but I usually just use the small propane bottles.

Sounds about like us. I bought the stove top surface, the griddle, propane T, and hoses to hook it up to our main tank. What's hard about cleaning the grill surface? I have read that they aren't really non stick and spraying with Pam helps. I would assume you could just spray and scrub with a coarse sponge?
