Slightly used, smallish gas grill for the backyard. Cheap.

If anyone know of someone who is upgrading to a newer grill and has a smaller one in decent condition, let me know. I'm tired of coals and I would grill a LOT more if I had propane. The area we have to put it in in now terribly large, so no behemoth necessary.

Good luck. Hopefully someone has one for you.

Craig's lis has been a bust, but the LoT can do anything - or at least it's worth a try.

Dang...we gave one away after the garage sale in August. Wish I'd known then.

You can get those little tabletop size ones at Smart n Final or Rite-aid, they also carry the small propane canisters. They're around 20 bucks. The problem I have with mine is that it will get hot spots and dead areas, so, if I had the space, I'd rather have a (small) full size grill, with the full size canister. The small one is still fine for doing a couple burgers.

I wish you could come get the one my downstairs neighbors have.

If you don't manage to find a used one, try Big Lots. They have several sizes, some of which are quite small.

Hmm, I'm trying to remember the brand of our grill. We paid $60 for it, it fits in our tiny back porch, and while it does have some problems with cold spots, it's the most efficient gas grill I've ever seen. We've owned it for 6+ years and I have had to fill the propane tank twice. It's uncanny.

ETA: Aha, I remembered. It's a Char-Broil. I think we got it at Home Depot, but I don't think they have that deal anymore.

We use our RoadTrip all the time at home now. I don't think I'll ever go back to charcoal. I just love being able to sautee veggies on a griddle while grilling meat right next to it. And the tops fit right in the dishwasher.

It can be used with full-sized or portable canisters, and can also be used for camping, so it's double useful.

They might even be on sale right now, since it's post season.
