    I layered my charcoal to one side and the other side for indirect grilling. This grill is for light grilling unlike a weber grill that can feed an army.

    I have one i have yet to use im thinking maybe a lot less Charcoal and a more sturdy surface may do the trick. How did the burgers taste? I

      @TheGillsExpeditionChannel  5 років тому

      The burgers were fantastic! You are right. A much more sturdy surface to set up on and less charcoal will make a big difference. We are going to do a follow up video when we are traveling this summer. Thanks for watching. Todd, Lori, and Alec

      How has this grill held up after the first use? The metal was bowing from the heat. Does the grill still fold correctly? Would you recommend?

      @@claudiasofia8462 I bought it and honestly it doesn’t really warp from the first couple uses so far but it is very hard to fold completely flat again to put back in the box. It leave a little opening usually if you don’t mind when it folds back up especially if you put the grates back inside the grill. Personally I would recommend a Weber Go anywhere for $30 more since the grill grate is kinda hard to work with since it’s so flimsy but if you don’t mind it’s worth it

    Flip 90 degrees to the direction of the grill rack to prevent losing your burger between. Only flip once. Otherwise the cold/warm cycle will turn your burger into leather. Same with any other meat. Put it on and don't mess with it, flip once, take off the grill. You had enough charcoal to open a blacksmith shop, so warping of the lightweight material is in the future of this grill. I do like the review as you went through all the possible mess ups. I think I'll be purchasing this grill for my little popup camper setup.

      You have to leave the meat alone until it's time to flip it. Once the meat is seared it will not stick to the grill. That meat wasn't seared yet when he was poking at it with the spatula. But also the space between the grill forks is to wide.

    so many things done wrong in this video.
    1) placement of the grill- setting the grill on top of a table? and mind you, a wobbly table?
    2) wrong kind of charcoal initially used
    3) please use a tong to place the grate on the hot A$$ grill, not your with your hands
    4) please use the spatula to place the patties on the grill, not with your hands
    5) too much charcoal for a small grill
    6) have you grilled or even flipped a patty before?
