Do you have to use the Coleman® All-in-One cooking system or can you put it on top of a similar propane grill?

Yes you have to have the Coleman all in One cooking system in order to use the coleman Stock Pot. I had to return Mines because I didn't own the all on One.

It is designed to fit on the all in one cooking system - it locks into place so it will not fall off.

I believe that a larger propane tank could be used with this grill if you had the correct adapter. The threads on the grill are for the smaller propane tanks used with lanterns and the like. I have an adapter that I can use with a large propane tank to connect a lantern head to it. That said, there is really no need to use a large propane tank given that the propane is only on for about 5 minutes to start the charcoal. I have also used the small propane tanks used for soldering and sweating pipe joints as they as typically a little cheaper than the ones designed for camping and can be found at any hardware store.

LIke any grill, if you don't watch what your cooking, you can burn it, but the pics are just trying to "demonstrate" charing. In fact, the lodge has two possible settings. Normally, one would turn the grill tops on its "feet" and that puts it about 1 1/2 to 2" higher than the flat position. You can turn it over to a "flat position" is much closer to the coals, naturally, so if you were cooking 1 single piece of meat and wanted use less coals but cook it quickly, you could do that. So, how much char you get it up to you. I have found that heat concentrates in the center of the grill, so you need to be aware of that.

Not without getting a kit for that from the vendor. But you do want to ask yourself why and where you'd hook it up. I find it's a lot safer to use a propane bottle setup because it lets me move the fryer to a place farther away from the house. I have a natural gas hookup for the grill, but that's right next to the house. With the fryer there's also the mess issue. I find it's better to use the fryer away from the patio so it doesn't leave oil spots all over the flagstone.

I have used both a weber portable propane grill and coleman stove on mine with no issues. I would hesitate putting a hot pan or pot on the table without protection. The grill is on legs and the stove does not get that hot on the bottom. Hope this helps. Overall great table I like it. very light and easy set up.

The propane line on your camper must be connected to the low side of propane regulator. The camp chef grill must not have a pressure regulator. If the grill has a regulator, the propane gas flow will be too low to create enough energy to cook. Now, connect your unregulated grill up to the regulated line and cook away . I did this to my Weber Q120 and it works great.

Although I haven't tried this, I suppose you can take out the middle section and place the grate on top of the charcoal ring. Weber offers a bbq grill that can also be used for smoking, I have a friend who has one and it smokes very well. If you are going to do more grilling than smoking that might be a better choice. Hope that helps.

I imagine you can do such with the roasting pan and the device set on 'broil'. But I prefer to use one of those small, portable Weber propane grills: Weber 1520 Propane Gas Go-Anywhere Grill. It's superb for burgers and brauts and any other similar activity. But, it's definitely an out-door thing. If you can't do outdoor, then I guess you're sort of stuck with this device. Or one of those electric grill things...which I've no experience with, as I can do outdoors.

Gasone Butane Fuel Canister (4pack)If you want this grill I would absoutly order these online because you can not find them ANYWHERE. I returned mine becuase the cans are pricey and I thought the grill itself was very cheap. Depending on what you are needing I would look into the coleman single burner that screws on top of the little propane tanks. Those tanks last FOREVER an you can fine them anywhere. I bought the Coleman burner and I LOVE it. It is made so well and boils water so fast.

You can use the side burner with pots and pans. The side grate as two height settings. You are supposed to use the lower one (grate close to ceramic element) with pots and pans and the higher standoff when searing meats. I love that side element (searing grill) compared to my old grill which had the standard side burner.

Yes you can. The stand & grill are designed to be used together.I use mine all the time, great combination.Gary

Yes it can be used stand alone. we used ours while the outdoor kitchen was being built. However, If you don't plan to build it into a kitchen buy a stand alone grill, they are much cheaper and look better standing alone. the built in model has heat shields around it to allow airflow between the grill and the parts against cabinets. That is the difference. that is also why you can't put a regular grill in a built in kitchen.

Yes, the footprints of both should be about the same. You will have to figure out a method of strapping it down when in transit, or pack it up every move, but it should work nicely. BTW, performance wise my wife absolutely loves this thing. Bakes nice in the oven part, and the burners work just as well as the Coleman you are replacing.

The propane tank is separate. I did find this infrared grill can get very hot, so finding the right settings/temps can be an art form. Once you get it down, it works very well but there is the danger of overcooking if you're not careful.

If you want to put charcoal on the top get the lodge camp oven instead. It's designed for that purpose.

I have a small propane grill and have used the cooker on that. Works just fine.

I would suppose you could. I never tried, I do know it is not anything as good as the Coleman one that proceeded this one.
