So since I'm gone from home the next 90 days I'm looking for a nice small grill one that can use propane.

I'm not looking to spend a lot of money on this item but like it to last the 9O days. Have any advice? Not looking for charcoal as I'll be using this twice a day for breakfast and dinner.

Sorry got use to grilling my food all the time and love it! Now that I have a Trader Joe's I can get some good meats!

I had one of these when I was a kid, my first apartment had a small patio and it was all that would fit.
it served me well for like 2 years

Check out the Stok Tourist. It's a small propane grill that's made to be portable. Home Depot sells it for $40. I got 2 years out of mine and that was using it 2-3 times a week. It just took a dump on me 2 weeks ago so I tossed it and went to Home Depot the next day for a new one.

I expected a much different thread when I first read it as "looking for a small girl."

I'm not sure what to do with the questions that will now go unanswered, but I hope you find your grill.

I love my Weber Q1200!

Got it under similar circumstances last year when I was out of town for three months, and have since used it frequently for all kinds of trips.  I am a charcoal guy, but the Q1200 has been awesome for dragging around and has definitely paid for itself several times over.  We even use it at the house to do something quick or to toss on some bacon in the morning.   Very highly recommended.

Like the Weber grill but it's not cheap at all! $199 vs $29?

Just looking for a cheap gets the job done grill! Don't care about brand if it Cooks that's what matters!

I just retired my 12 year old Weber Baby-Q.  It works great still (a little uneven heating but after 12 years I think it needs a new $25 burner) but it's too small for us anymore.  Buy one cry once!

I understand buy and cry once but would you buy this grill to use for less then 90 days?

Are you planning to leave it behind?  If yes, then I wouldn't spend the money on it.  Look around on your local craigslist for a good used propane grill- it just needs to work.

If you can bring it home the Baby-Q is a good size to use for one or two people.  We rarely cook indoors in the summer.

Picked up one that looks like that at Walmart for cheap, like $25. It's called the "Expert."

IIRC there's bottle adapters available to connect to a larger tank
