Seen lots of camping and backpacking and a lot of gloves. Im 58 and have never used them to cook my own food. 😂😂 great grill love how it packs down. Will be great for surf trips and over landing

Dude, same about the gloves. I'm right there with you. Saying that, I use them now. Most times, anyway. It can certainly mitigate the occasional hand washing - kind of a convenience thing as much as a food safety thing. Cheers old timer! Keep on til we can't keep on!

it works like a charm for what it is, would be better for backpacking if the grill grate was a little bit lighter

Hi Mountain. Thanks for making this vid. Looks like an awesome hike. I'm looking to purchase that same grill as I like he concept of portability etc. There are some reviews but not crazy much yet and I was wondering what your experience is with regards to two potential improvement points: 1/ heat distribution: the front (where gas enters the manifold) may be getting hotter than the back and 2/ fat can drizzle down on to the burner and further down into the lower tray and then leak out. What is your experience here?

I haven't used the grill enough yet to get a really accurate sense of the hot areas, but I did get the sense that the front burned a little hotter than the back. It could've been because of high wind where I was cooking, and also due to fat drips causing flair ups in that spot, but I did notice some different temperature zones. As far as the fat goes I suppose it could be an issue if you're getting copious amounts of drip, but in normal circumstances I think any drips will mostly burn up as they hit the gas. I lined the inside with foil and there was definitely a good amount of grease, but not enough to pool up and leak anywhere. Could be an issue if you're grilling a high volume of greasy food in a short time. Good questions, hope this helps. Next time I use the grill I'll do more experimenting and try to get some better answers.

@@mountain_stew Thanks for coming back on this! I'm probably going to pick up one of these grills today. I think that the benefits of outweigh and improvement areas. Have a great day!

You're right. Depending on the size of the food and what you are cooking, it does give you a bit of a dual heat zone and it can be used beneficially. Maybe that's a glass half empty/full kinda deal. For what this grill is, it is super cool. It's a nitch item, for sure, but I don't think there is still anything yet out there that fits in this same market space. I don't have anything to do with these folks, but I really like what they've produced here.
