Camp stove vs Camp grill

We need a camp stove to cook meals on and I've seen the stove that has one burner for pots and the other side a grill and then the one with just two burners. Does anyone have any experience with using both and what would you recommend. We don't grill a lot but it might be because we don't own a grill, if we had one??
And what do you look for when you buy a camp stove? Are BTU numbers really important?
Thanks in advance.

    We use the Coleman Road Trip and it meets all of our cooking needs.. The Weber Q Series probably has a better seal with its tight lid etc... Some folks like that idea for better heat distribution in the cooking area...

    I like the Coleman Road trip for all of the accessories including the nice stand etc that can be purchased for it and all fits in a nice roll around two wheeled tote...

    The Coleman Road trip runs off of a single 1LB propane canister and has two burners... Also has a water reservoir around the burners in a tray that makes for very easy cleanup...



    We have been using our setup since 2008

    Buy a Weber Q series and a Coleman propane stove and be done with it.
