Homemade Tiny BBQ Grill

[@HouseholdHacker]

Improvised grills are the best grills!

[@ashleymonroe221]

Wow dude,l love this,so cheap and easy. I let my 9 and 7 year old watch this. Now they want to make a bigger one....THANK YOU SO MUCH... Funds are low right now,so glad we came across this video

[@k.de.3838]

Really handy and easy to make for less than $10. I also like the fact that it's also easily disposable when your done . Can't wait to make one.

[@ehullquist]

Thanks!

[@abiabi521]

This is a genius creation of an idea I had and I'm trying it, thanks. I was looking 4 a stove top version using 3 larger aluminum trays. 1 tray to hold coals and 2 for the pit. I especially love your use of the clips...To me THAT is genius.

[@Thalanox]

Please do not burn charcoal or set fires indoors without adequate ventilation. Aside from the general "burning your house down" dangers of fires, the carbon monoxide from the burning process of charcoal can be an invisible risk.

[@harrywest694]

This is beast, no joke I made one of these ages ago and was waiting for someone to create a video on it, because I needed to make some changes to it （ it kind of melted...) thank you for creating this video buddy :)

[@Thalanox]

How much charcoal did you put in it?

[@JeffB1961]

i just has gastric bypass and was looking for a very small grill but everything seemed huge for just 1 or 2 scallops . this is perfect ! thanks for sharing :)

[@pwc1021]

This gave me an idea, I can probably adapt a small rotisserie onto this thing. Just need a small motor....woll do a chicken leg on it.👌👍🤣🤣

[@StarStriker4101]

Really NICE! One of the best looking and best functional improvised grills on YT!

[@ehullquist]

Thanks! :)

[@ehullquist]

On August 15, 2014 CrazyRussianHacker blatantly stole my _original_ design and is now getting hundreds of thousands of views for his video... *sigh* I guess they say, "copying is the highest form of flattery".

[@Tony-ml5bs]

Umm I'm going to use it for a side burner for my BIG grill, they said 200 more dollars for side burner now I get a cheap 20 dollar one

[@squeezytomato1640]

I watch this first and probably going to make it from this video

[@boobooman10]

Sucks to suck

[@ronk9]

I know it..... Crazyrussianhacker mostly copies other' s ideas.... Copying is one common thing on youtube so chill :) nice idea!

[@ehullquist]

chaz1031 I DID get the basic concept from Grant Thomson's Bitty-Q.... However, my Mini Grill is completely different in design and construction. CrazyRussianHacker copied my video completely, step by step. I never said this was my original idea, I said it was my original design.

[@goldenhorshoe4814]

u are quite the smart dude. I thought of alot of things to use to make a quick portable grill but not this. your idea is awesome I just may have to make one. one day soon

[@CptTime]

I made it! It has to be one of the coolest things I have made(: thanks for posting!

[@zam891]

Even until now , this method brings benefits to the outdoors ! Thanks !

[@xenarafique1853]

you are so precise in any thing you do. lovely creativity

[@ishtiaqahmed588]

I love this idea of small bbq. Easy and you don’t any special tools. Luv it

[@shirleymason13]

Knowage is knowage you learn something new each day, thank you.

[@lifestyleswitneffy]

OMG I'm crazy about this... About to try this using a bigger pan and the grill thingie from my oven. Thumbs up!

[@AB-C1]

Excellent video and simple design! Cheers from London England 👍💪😎 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@circuh1981]

i tried this and it works great!! the only issue was the grate sliding around, and sometimes falling into the coals. next time i will make one bigger than the grill. i ended up using my cheese grater (one of the flat kinds) as a grate. works pretty good.

[@claudetterobbross7910]

Can you use larger (and deeper) aluminum pans, larger clips and maybe double up the bottom pans since it would require more charcoal? Maybe put sand between the 2 bottom pans for insulation? And use a rack from a regular roasting pan?

[@ehullquist]

+Claudette Robb Ross Sure thing! You could easily scale this grill up with bigger pans, and a layer of sand on the bottom is a BRILLIANT idea!

[@jeremiahhuntley4017]

If I was going to scale it up, I might just place a layer of brick for the bottom and sides, and use a pan as a lid. A steel cookie sheet might be even better as a lid.

[@drgreenthumb6990]

I love when people make awesome things like this !!

[@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival]

I am going to make one of these but am following your plans. I hate it when people copy others and don't give credit....

[@carrymycross84]

Can you or will you make it with the bigger trays, like the ones for a turkey? ? ?

[@andrewjones9749]

I made this and used it when I was camping.It worked great and I still use it

[@huzugaming1642]

It's very easy .. good job brother and nice video

[@ehullquist]

Thanks!

[@aXXoBaba]

gr8 one.... tried this at home.... really saved my time n bucks.... kudos mate.

[@christopherdavid9357]

Of all the cute little ideas that I have seen on KZbin this one definitely goes to the top of my favorite list

[@ehullquist]

Awesome! Thanks for the comment!

[@tenlamps6183]

Awesome. I'm thinking of making it a tad bigger by using roasting pans.

[@ehullquist]

Sounds like a great plan!

[@davidclark9086]

Awesome. I will definitely make one or more of these. Thanks for the post.

[@nofthet583]

If you break up the charcoal briskets with that brick, then add to the grill and light, you can cook better.

[@ramarajujyothirmai9552]

good efforts.. pls keep trying something new and do share. don't get discouraged of stupid comments. only people who don't have creativity cannot appreciate any efforts.

[@ehullquist]

Thanks! It is a bit discouraging to post an original design and then have someone else rake in over a quarter of a million views from stealing my idea. But I will post more original content... Stay tuned! :)

[@Taven03]

Any ideas on how long the grill will last? also instead of binder clips you can use wire to create the handle and hinges (you dont have to worry about plastic then.)

[@ehullquist]

No idea how long it would last, but its super cheep and easy to make so you could always make a new one if/when it dies. Wire would work, but the binder clips are SO much easier (and don't have any plastic on them).

[@johnpick8336]

WOW !!!! THANK U I love grilled food but have limited money for charcol...this is the solution!!!

[@danielemulazzi1615]

Bella idea... complimenti... ciao dall'Italia

[@nadyaack4210]

OMG I HAVE TO DO THIS ! It's super awesome!! Btw:the crazy Russian hacker had the same vids long with some other channel, but it's still awesome!

[@ehullquist]

Yes, he stole the idea (shot for shot) from my video...

[@lemoncrinckles]

Such a great idea. Thank you so much for making this video for us. Shared on my FB page. Looking forward to trying this out! (:

[@ehullquist]

Thanks

[@gustavgnoettgen]

Nice. Very good yet simple design. A next step could be to use long fish cans or spam cans. More durable but heavier and more difficult to make.

[@funigurl72]

Nice job. My only concern is the unknown metal of the coat hangar and possible toxic issues.

[@maltelykkenrtoftthomsen3808]

will it be a good idea to make another coat hanger thing to have the coals on and a little hole for timber to light the coals?

[@ehullquist]

Sure, it wouldn't hurt. :]

[@rbhre]

Awesome! Great little idea, I love it! Thank you :)

[@lewisadvidz]

brilliantly simple, thanks for the video

[@ehullquist]

+ukipodder You're welcome!

[@Flashover369]

this is awesome! probably making one in the future

[@blackwolfalphama3463]

nice build

[@Gagy]

I ran out at night, i made it instantly.

[@farceadentus]

Very creative ;) well done

[@Woocy19]

Thank you for sharing I tried this mini grill and it works 10 times faster. thanks again😀☺

[@heymisswest]

What else can I use besides a hanger?

[@deannajaramillo1150]

Cute!! Thank you! Simple and everything I need can be bought at the dollar store. I want to make it to make smores with my kids 😁👍

[@davidrojas1660]

de donde sacas las cajas de aluminio?

[@teronkee]

@ehullquist You can use a aluminium bbq grill with the cross too right? other then hanger

[@billiewallace6250]

The Best yet!

[@ehullquist]

Thanks! :)

[@alex13r72]

Lov it but were can u get aluminum bread containers at???

[@ehullquist]

Here in the U.S. we can get aluminum baking pans at most grocery stores.

[@shubhammokashi8425]

Awesome buddy loved this video

[@crazy_thunder2516]

i dont have any metal hangers what else could i use

[@lucijan1883]

you sir, are going to be famous :)

[@franciscodelvalle4052]

Very cool. Thanks for sharing

[@farisal-hoyidy7305]

Do u have to take the protecting coating off of the wire

[@ehullquist]

I suppose you don't HAVE to, but it might make your food taste funny. :) If you don't remove the coating with sandpaper make sure it is thoroughly burned off before grilling any food on it.

[@michaelspencer4047]

Great Idea 💡

[@luisss.2142]

Can you use paper clips instead of a hanger

[@justelementt1538]

very very nice man!

[@jt-xn8bw]

Very cool video !

[@tammykeith5909]

a cute project to pass the time and mess with my kid's heads thanks

[@ehullquist]

I think it's funny how much flack I get for mentioning the "veggie dog". I guess people assume that I'm an animal rights PETA vegan but that couldn't be further than the truth. I'm NOT a preachy vegetarian, in fact I sometimes DO eat meat. I don't care what someone else eats... I don't judge. They can do whatever they want. Meh...

[@hughjanus3798]

The veggie dog didn't bother me at all. It's that damn WHOLE WHEAT HOT DOG BUN!!! Not to mention the ketchup! But, you know what I say, "Live and let live."

[@boxfoxreyes9950]

a hot dog is a hotdog no matter what and berad is bread

[@hughjanus3798]

boxfox reyes You're right, berad is bread.

[@artikrutasi87]

yeah dont worry.. ignore others...

[@nikki9064]

thanks. I don't care if you eat meat or anything. I'm not vegetarian neither

[@sophiegorle6542]

What is it made of ? Aluminium ?

[@iviewthetube]

Doesn't aluminum have a low melting temperature? +/-1220ºF Would it be better to use stainless steel bread pans instead? +/-2550ºF

[@rogertopful]

That would be a good idea. Why don't you do it as a response to this video.

[@Peg-ee5ei]

I love this. Thank you! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@LS-tw4rj]

I love this! Just one question: How many times can one grill be used?

[@ehullquist]

It depends on how well you take care of it. I'd imagine you could get 10 - 20 uses out of it if you took care of it, maybe more? Test it and let me know! :D

[@jimmylopez1968]

What do I need to make one

[@bobherndon5431]

atlanta bbq club endorses mini Grills!!!

[@kikimoore5387]

Do we have to use that sand paper or can we just wash it?

[@fishermen-ig6nm]

would chicken wire work instead of the hanger

[@LucyKIM-ut1hi]

I really want to banks this but I don't have the bread pans or binder clips :(

[@andyb7339]

Very good 👍

[@marksevigny]

that is amazing good for t hose day trips on a bicycle and camping good job thank you

[@maymoekabyar9574]

Does'nt the plastics burn from the clip? and can we use a wire instead of a hanger?

[@ehullquist]

You should use metal clips (like the ones in my video). Do not use plastic clips! Using other wire should be fine as long as it isn't galvanized or coated in paint or plastic.

[@maymoekabyar9574]

Thank you very much

[@user-ty4ry2wr6l]

Is charcoal good or bad for you?

[@maplesyruuup]

This was cute!

[@GatorLife57]

Thumbs up ! Great job. GOD bless.

[@ehullquist]

Thanks

[@nathan101killer7]

I really like this

[@LishaGirli]

Your voice is so calm peaceful and it just sounds so nice😰😍😌😹😻

[@danjones3593]

Thanks a lot

[@lauratriana7645]

Good job man!

[@dillatoryplays3273]

does burning wood left over works?

[@jeremiahhuntley4017]

Dillatory Plays it should. Just use hard woods that are not treated, glued, varnished, stained, or have any other chemicals. Only natural hard woods should be used for cooking.

[@luciaenciso6226]

OMG I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE BUT I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEO'S I LOVE YOU

[@ehullquist]

Thanks! :)

[@eshiarab7417]

You did good jom 👍👍

[@shanewalt7014]

Cool vid man

[@69notnow]

More like that? Maybe a little larger and foldin in on itself? Good job.

[@SeanSeanSeanKeefe]

How much does all the stuff cost to make it

[@ehullquist]

Total cost is probably in the $5 or less range... but if you already have these items lying around the house (like I did) then it is essentially free. :)

[@SeanSeanSeanKeefe]

Cool

[@rainnmoon114]

How come the clips don't melt? Also can I reuse those mini grill or is it just one use?

[@ehullquist]

The clips are metal. Yes, you could use the grill multiple times, maybe 10-20+ times if you take care of it.

[@rainnmoon114]

@@ehullquist thank you! Maybe you can do an updated video and show how to care for it? I've never grilled before. Also it sucks that the other hack guy stole this idea from you. :( Im sorry to hear.

[@aronblemz1]

hey do you need to use coal ? like will wood and spirit be okay ? gonna try this on a turkey sized one xoxo

[@adrianaflores4588]

Wooow easy and cute, love it, Ill do it ;)))

[@curtizmcintyre970]

Cool i can use this one.

[@ehullquist]

Great! Glad I could help! :)

[@brat46]

A lot better than the CrazyRussianHacker video. If anyone has watched his video's they are all copies of someone else's ideas.

[@papo0810]

Good idea, love it

[@loreley76]

The best ever!!!! Super! 👍❤🙏💥💥💥💥💥🥰

[@drelaveth8832]

Isn't this toxic when the aluminium heats?

[@rogertopful]

No.

[@SimpleAFkithcen]

It is very good idea but it could have wire stands so you will not need heat resistance that much :)

[@ttdsons9602]

the clips are plastic arent they gonna melt from heat?

[@jeffhan1239]

the clips are metal. at least, all of that type of clips I've ever seen are metal

[@sallypersaud8138]

I tried it and it worked

[@mackshonda7775]

thanks for posting the vid

[@juanvanderberg4981]

so cute and helpful
