EZ Grill 4831-SH-5 5-Pack Portable Disposable Instant Barbeque, Party Size

I purchased the 5 pack and have used 4 of these so far. I'm an avid tailgater so portable disposable grills seemed like the answer to so many tailgating issues. I can say that 2 of the 4 worked perfectly. The 3rd one felt like it lost the heat quick but i was able to cook one round of food on it successfully. The 4th one lit up fine, but the coals never got hot enough to cook our food thoroughly. Possibly some product defects? (or) Could it be the fact that the plastic shell on them is easy to tear and could have lost much of the flammable solution over time? Hmmmm...Pros:1) It always fires up quick so you will never have a problem lighting it up.2) It's easy and disposable; will be disposable about 2-3 hours after lighting.3) Ideal for one round of cooking for a small group (1-4 people)Cons:1) Fatty foods will cause coals to go out quick2) You will not be able to cook more than 1 round of food on it without drastic reduction in heat and cooking time.3) The aluminum shell is pretty weak and folds in on itself; especially after cooking the first round of food.4) Will not function for larger group cooking (5+ people)Overall, for a quick tailgate for 2-4 people, this would be ideal. You can cook one round of meats (6 burgers + hot dogs) just fine. However, due to the inconsistencies of my experiences, I would bring two just in case one doesn't work. If you are cooking for a group of people of 5 or more and plan on cooking more than one round of food, definitively, find another solution. Nothing is worse than slow cooking food on a grill that is caving in on itself after the 1st round of food. Good Luck and Happy Grilling!

I purchased these to use cook out at the beach/ park. (FL state beach park, with dedicated barbeque areas, and barbeque stands). The grills' are well packed and instructions are idiot proof. I placed the grill on the included grill stand, and then placed it on the barbeque stand at the park. The grill is easy to set up and easy to light. The flames died down after about 20-25 minutes, (not the +- 15 minutes as the package states) due to a slight breeze. (Many people at the beach/ park commented on the grill. They were intrigued, and inquisitive.)The charcoal is difficult to spread out evenly once the bags have burnt out. The charcoal tends to stay in two large clumps, and cooking must be done on these two areas. It would be difficult to cook for more than 4 people, as the grill is probably only good for about 1 hour of cooking. Burgers and hot dogs are probably best, as thick steaks and chicken would need more time and more heat.I would recommend these as a great alternative to carrying charcoal or a portable grill to the park. Clean up is very easy, and for the price these are a big win! I do think the smaller version MAY be better for up to three people. Enjoy the graze!!

I bought this pack to grill meat for my son's birthday. I use it in a small balcony out of my apartment. I was impressed with the results and how easy it is to use. I think I will never buy one of those big grills in my life. This is all I need to have a small party. I used two grills for my son's birthday party, and the steaks were flavorful and well cooked. Highly highly recommended.

I brought the larger size and grilled 2 T-bone steaks and short ribs. I waited for flames to die down put meat on grill and Perfection at camp site..These disposable grills are Perfect for camping/tail gating..

I ordered these to take on vacation. There was hardly any coals, a total of 12 to be exact. Did not even cover the cooking area never mind not enough heat to cook the food. Will never use this product again!

Perfect for hot dogs and brats. Quickly heated up and very convenient.

Flimsy, not much charcoal. If you want to get the grate off the top, it's a pain. I ended up buying a five dollar 'disposable' grill with separate removable grate, and it is much better, and much cheaper to just buy charcoal and reuse it.

Great idea when you want quick and easy picnic. One did not work well when the coals were far apart.Make sure you use the stand correctly. I was able to use a disposible warming tray to cook other item.
