Weber 386002 Q 100 Portable Propane Great Grill for Everyday Use!

I've been employing a Q100 / Baby Q for around two a long time now, and am even now impressed through the high quality from the item and what I'm able to perform with it provided it is tiny dimension. Here is the create:

Q100 Grill
Weber Cart
Bulk tank adapter
5-lb. propane tank

The grill surface is
big adequate for a household of four. Six 1/3 lb. burgers match nicely adequate; much more and they are tough to turn. I've also been able to accomplish two common sized tri-tips at as soon as. The lid is not tall enough to allow a whole chicken. I was a little wary from the 8K BTU rating to start with, however the grill heats up just fine- it is going to do a wonderful sear on virtually anything at all after 7-10 minutes of preheat. The warmth is additionally quite even, with all the virtually complete grill surface usable. The best factor in regards to the modest burner is fuel effectiveness; 5 lbs. of propane lasts all season (in SoCal!) at 1-2 makes use of per week. Please note that this is just one burner grill that has a ring-shaped burner. Indirect cooking isn't really really feasible even though on low heat, one can get near enough to complete justice to a tri-tip.

I've only
obtained a few tiny complaints... Very first, the assistance ring for the portable tank (at least using the Infant Q) only accepted 14 oz. propane bottles- the kind used with plumber's torches. They are a lot more costly than the sixteen oz. bottles utilised for camping. I just created my own 16 oz. bottle ring from a major coat hanger. Needless to say together with the bulk tank, that is a non-issue. The 5 lb. tank (from House Depot) is fairly tiny. 2nd, the grill is somewhat delicate to wind. A good breeze blowing by way of the sides causes a definite loss of temperature previously mentioned the grill surface, under the lid. Cooking continues to be feasible but times go up about 30-40%. Last, the holes from the burner can get clogged up, particularly when there is a whole lot of liquid pouring off the grill surface. I've needed to 'unclog' elements of the burner with a push-pin a few times now.

Anyway,
I really like the merchandise as it really is about 75% of the full-size grill at 1/3 the size and 1/4 the cost, inside of its limits (grill area). I think the one point I'd do differently is obtain the edition with the side tables (Q120).
