grill type for your rv

[SDBigDog55]

I have been researching grills for my 29RS GD and wanted to get a griddle type but, my better side told me NO GRIDDLE but she was ok with us purchasing a pellet grill that would fit into the exterior cooking area on the 29RS. It has plenty of room for the grill and storage bens filled with pellets. The one we are looking at is the Traeger Ranger portable grill it does require a 120 volt source at 3 amps and the refrigerator in the exterior area is 120 volts as well so we could use a drop cord and move the grill to a area where the wind isn't blowing. Has anyone used this grill or a pellet grill while rving? Thanks ed

I have the Napoleon Travel Q285 and love but we are planning on adding the GMG Davie Crockett to the collection or maybe even replacement. However, the Napoleon those come with the criddle so it might not be replaced.

I use this...

It is a cheap grill, you can mount it on the side of your RV or stand it on a table. It was mounted to a used trailer that I bought and used for about two years. I liked it and it got the job done, so I bought one for my new trailer. It's large enough, as we are only two people. I am not going to mount it, however. I think I will use it only on a tabletop.

I have a Treager smoker, similar to the Tailgater. It has a larger cooking surface than the Ranger. I removed the collapsible legs and built a small stand for it to sit on. Smoker sits in the back of the truck bed. With the legs off, tonneau cover fits over it. I can use it as a grill, but mostly as a slow smoker. Amazing meals

We been packin' the GMG Davie Crockett for 4 years now. It cooks great. Low temp or very high. Pork shoulder for 12 hours or a steak in 7 or 8. KEN

We currently use the trigger ranger and really like it. It comes with both a griddle so we can do bacon by the pound as well as a grill for regular barbecuing. Do be careful of the grease run off if you are doing bacon make sure that it is all draining out the end, not overflowing into the fire burner area. Don't ask me how I know that, butit was exciting. The only downside is the weight.

Been there, done that on the grease fire. Just keep the lid closed till it's burned out or close to burnt out. Hamburgers and bacon will make a greasy mess and then cooking slow, it will never ignite. Then; fire up the grill nice and hot for a steak and things get exciting. KEN

We second the Green Mountain Davy Crockett pellet Grill/smoker. We've had ours for a couple of years, and it goes everywhere with us. A big + is that it runs on 120vac or 12vdc. It's a bit heavy, but manageable.

I dropped a 12v cord out of the propane area from the battery and put a anderson connector on the end. I made an adaptor from 12v power to anderson to plug in. KEN

Thanks for the ideas, one question on the Ranger is, how long does it take to warm up to 350 degrees ? Is it a slow process or in 10 minutes is it ready to cook? Thanks

Reverse sear of 2" ribeyes (or filets) on a Green Mountain Grill is just AMAZING! I have a Daniel Boone and am strongly considering the Davy Crockett to replace our Weber Q.

Mesquite pellets... 1 hour at 225 degrees (pull when internal is 115) and then sear at high heat for 60 seconds a side, perfect medium rare. Did I mention AMAZING?

Ours is about 10min, give or take a couple of minutes

A Weber Q 100 or 120 with a Lodge cast iron griddle might solve your problems. The griddle fits nicely (not perfectly) on the grill, crank up the temp and get cooking.

I have the Ranger and love it. 10-12 minutes to warm up on a non-windy day as the wind takes some of the heat away.

I agree 100% Jeff. Can’t beat a reverse seared steak! I have a Treager Scout that stays in the RV and a Treager Pro at home. I don’t think it’s possible to screw up a meal on it.

Please look at the Camp Chef Expedition 2X or 3X stoves and their cooking options. I have had the Expedition 3X now for fifteen years. I also purchased the griddle that covers 2 of the 3 burners along with the stove top BBQ that covers 2 of the 3 burners. When I want to add smoke I just put a cast iron smoker box under the grates. The griddle comes with can holder for catching bacon grease. The burner power is phenomenal as I rarely go above the medium setting. If your at the coast and you want to cook crab in a big pot and don't want to take along a dedicated crab pot burner then the camp chef will work great for you (personal experience here at Porto Bodega Marina and RV Park).

If you just want to cook meat over a fire, you won't go wrong with a Weber. If you know know how to use it, you can do a lot more with it too. Had one in 2018 and gave it to a good friend who I shared several grilled meals with.

Then I bought a propane smoker cabinet in early 2019, and have not looked back. I cook whatever I want, and eventually learned I can even "grill" burgers on the bottom rack with the heat all the way up. That said, smoked burgers are AMAZING. I just don't go so low or slow with them because it's ground beef not a solid slab of meat.

I had the GMG Davie Crocket for a little while. I had to choose between keeping it or the smoker cabinet. I kept the cabinet. The Davie Crocket wasn't a bad compact smoker though. Just don't buy it wanting a grill, like I did. Also, for it's size I was surprised by the weight of it. But I like how it folds up.

We prefer the taste and flavor from a pellet grill we went with the Country Smoker, no regrets.

We use a round Magma propane grill we had on the boat. Works very well for the 2 of us. Gets hot quick and is pretty efficient.
Here it is last year on the boat grilling some cheeseburgers in paradise.
