Comments on: Volcano Grill – Another Outdoor Cooking Gift Idea https://www.outdoorcookingmagic.com/volcano-grill-gift-idea/ Sat, 15 Feb 2014 07:12:20 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9 By: Rick Curran https://www.outdoorcookingmagic.com/volcano-grill-gift-idea/#comment-18473 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 07:12:20 +0000 http://www.outdoorcookingmagic.com/?p=2784#comment-18473 I have a Volcano Grill and it works well. It is small. The grill area is about 15 inches round. It collapses down to an easy to manage portable grill size that uses propane, wood or charcoal. I use one of those large propane tanks. No it doesn’t have one of those domes that goes over the top of your food, it is just a heat source which is very efficient.

It would make a great grill for tailgating before a football game. It travels well and can go to the beach or on a scout camp out. It is a bit too heavy to go hiking with, but would work great on a picnic table at the state park. The collapsable legs keep the outside and bottom cool. The sides are designed to protect the fire from the wind.

It acts like a regular grill for hotdogs or to grill 4 or 5 chicken breasts, corn on the cob or hamburgers. Grill fish, pizza, or a foil dinner. You can also place a 4 or more quart Dutch oven in the center well and have the heat not only come from the bottom, but also from around the sides. It is great for a one pot meal like stew, soup or maybe baking bread or cobbler. You could put a good sized cast iron skillet on the grill for morning eggs and bacon.

If you have a space problem and can’t put one of those mammoth bar-b-que grills in your back yard, the Volcano Grill may do just what you need. Or pull it off the shelf and use it when bad weather comes your way, to warm up meals until the power comes back on. For your own safety, take it out side, don’t use it to cook in or warm up the house.
