Great Portable Grills for RVers

Having a portable grill with you on your camping trip is a must. It will keep you from having to cook every single meal in your RV’s kitchen. This will ensure the inside of your RV doesn’t become a mess. When I camp, I cook as many of my meals outside as I can. Plus, it’s another way to take advantage of your surroundings and get the most out of living the RV lifestyle.

While cooking over a campfire is always a fun thing to do, it’s not always convenient. That’s why I suggest taking along a portable grill and cooking your breakfast, lunch, or dinner over a controlled flame. Here are several models, available at Camping World, that would be perfect for your next camping trip.

Olive BBQTek Portable Grill

At a price point that’s easy to digest is the Olive BBQTek Portable Grill. This small tabletop gas grill is a fantastic addition to anyone’s camping packing checklist. It’s small and easily portable and has a 234-square-inch cooking area. Pair that with its 12,000 BTU heat output and you should have more than enough heat to cook meals quickly and efficiently.

Looking for something a little more high-tech that doesn’t break the bank? This Char-Broil Grill2go X200 Portable Gas Grill is a fantastic option. Although it has a slightly smaller 200-square-inch cooking area than the grill above, this grill’s ease-of-use make it worth the upgrade. The grill features a patented TRU-Infrared cooking system and a wider temp range for more evenly cooked meals.

Weber Q 1200 Portable Gas Grill

A list of grills wouldn’t be complete without having a good grill from Weber on it. While the Weber Q 1200 Portable Gas Grill is a little higher-end, the quality of the product is what sets it apart. You will have this grill for years to come. This grill has a porcelain finish, cast iron grates, fast electronic ignition, built-in thermometer, and is built to cook food evenly. Imagine your chef skills at work on its 189-square-inch cooking area.

If you’re more of a flat-surface chef then you’ll love having the Razor Portable LP Gas Griddle at the campsite. A thick rolled-steel pre-seasoned griddle top heats up quickly with 20,000 BTU stainless steel burners thanks to the easy push and turn ignition. An integrated front access drain and cup make cleanup as simple as possible, so you can spend more time cooking and eating. It’s what we all want, right?

It has a porcelain-enameled lid, cook box, and cast-iron cooking grates. Plus, there’s an automatic lid lock for safe cooking and transport.

While propane grills tend to dominate the outdoor cooking space, don’t rule out the option of cooking with pellets.

A cast-iron griddle is also included to sear steaks or cook eggs. Pack a wood-fired flavor punch into all of your campsite cuisines with this one.

Whether you’re looking for prep space or somewhere to put your plates and tools down, a flat surface can quickly become your best friend. With this Grill and Table Bundle (made up of the BBQTek Portable Grill and the GCI Outdoor Slim-Fold Outdoor Cook Station), you’ll never have to worry about having enough space ever again.

There are many more excellent portable grills out there from charcoal to electric, gas to pellet. These are simply some of my top picks. You certainly don’t have to purchase one of these, but your camping trip (and your meals) will show the difference if you take the time to find room in your RV to bring along a portable grill.
