Electric Grill Recommendation ???

We have an all electric coach now so I ditched the table top gas grill I had as I don't want to haul around a propane tank. I bought a MECO Aussie electric grill and had good luck with it until the last trip when after a couple days, it tripped the GFI. I tried other outlets with the same results. While I liked the grill, it only lasted a bit over a year which is unacceptable. So now, I'm looking for a quality electric table top grill. Any suggestions.
  • I gave up on the electric cooking appliances. Some dishes take a long time and inevitably you use something in the RV at the same time that trips the GFI. Also all of the appliances used for any length of time put a heavy load on the circuit.

    IMHO I don't have a problem carrying a couple of those 'small' 2 lb propane bottles that one will last thru cooking many dinners. AND for me I don't like the grease and smoke "inside" my MH when grilling.

    After a few years on the road full time buying and trying every grill out there, I ended up with this set up.

    Grills, cooks. Folds as flat as a laptop for easy storage in the bays.
    Add one folding flat aluminum table to put it on and you are good to go.

  • Hi,

    I use a George Foreman type grill.

    Did you try the existing grill on a different outlet? I.e. perhaps the GFI has failed?
  • When not outdoors grilling with propane or on a fire we use the NuWave Oven Pro inside. Have cooked, besides the whole chicken in photos, steaks, chops, bacon...the list goes on.

    Does a great job and recommend highly as another source.




  • I bought a 16 inch sq Uniflame electric grill at walmart very reasonably, it is not a griddle, it is a grill, that stands on a base that I can remove it from and move it inside in the winter. just used it for lunch.

  • Meco makes an electric grill. I have one on my enclosed but unheated back porch. I use it all year, and take it with me in the RV when traveling.
  • If you are going to go electric (which really isn't true grilling), we have a Cuisinart Panini Press Grill. Makes great Panini sandwiches, grills any meat (like a George Foreman Grill), flip over the plates for pancakes, etc.
    Plates remove for easier cleaning.

    Cuisinart is only one of them..lots are available. Check Costco.
