Looking for some recommendations on portable camping grills. We are looking for a self standing unit. I'm not really liking the weber one available. I understand their quality is worth it but I just don't like it. I recently found a brand called stok at home depot.http://m.homedepot.com/p/STOK-Gridiron-348-sq-in-Single-Burner-Portable-Propane-Gas-Grill-in-Black-with-Insert-Compatibility-STG1150HD/206467951I really dont care about the inset capability as ill probably never use it. However it's reviews make me think it may be a good grill. Just looking for a decent quality grill for a decent price. I will be converting any of these to run off a quick connect from the outdoor kitchen.

My .02 cents worth. I normally use a smoker these days. However right next to my Smoker is a 22 year old Weber grill that just won't die and I can still get parts for it. I also have one of the early Weber Q100s for our RV. Is it perfect? Nah but for 95 percent of the BBQing we do camping it does great. The reason I would still recommend the Weber is parts availability. I've never heard of STOK Gridiron, when I look at Amazon I don't see very many reviews for it compared to the Weber or the Coleman. Your call I'd be more inclined to look at the Coleman or Weber.

Weber Baby Q. Wish it had a thermostat, maybe the new ones do.

While not full height self standing I recently bought a Cuisinart CGG-522 Dual blaze grill. It has flip over locking legs that allow it to be used on a typical folding camping table. It includes a lid thermometer as well as separate left and right burners each with built in piezo lighters, and a good heavy duty grate.There are a couple of negatives though, there is no carrying handle so it is a bit awkward to move with the legs folded up and pigtail hose is fairly short and mates to a 20 pound propane tank, not the little disposable cylinders, so in my case I had to add an adapter commonly called a steak saver adapter to my Extend-a-stay hose to get it to work.

Something you can use natural briquettes or lump on - far better results than propane. I use a kamado style cooker/smoker at home but that's just not practical for camping, so for that I use a charcoal Weber.
