I’m looking at buying a grill, when we went away last we couldn’t eat together as things took too long to cook and the oven is too small to cook a lot, so I’m thinking of buying an electric grill.
A table top type, but a good size to make a decent cooked breakfast for 4.
Can anyone recommend one please?

a cheaper and easier way (in terms of washing up) is to buy a couple of the stay warm vaccume casserole dishes, they keep food hot for about 2 hrs! and no need for having ehu to power them! much lighter to store too

we have cooked in our caravan for about 20 people and regularly do for min of 6 just using the frying pan and the pots

But can they do a cooked breakfast which the Op asked about.

Earlier in the year I treated myself to a https://www.georgeforeman.co.uk/grills/Indoor-Outdoor-BBQ-Grill-xl We use it at home but I see no reason why it couldn't be taken away in the van. It can be used on a stand or table top. Pretty pleased with it so far and it doesn't cost a fortune.

Whichever electric hotplate/grill you go for make sure what power it needs before using on a campsite EHU.

Some of the bigger ones like the George Foreman XL BBQ/Grill are rated at 2400w which will need a 10A supply and some campsites even in the UK have less than this.

We bought a George Foreman grill as grill with oven was useless. Now nice grilled bacon and sausages for breakfast.

The George Foreman above is only 1100 watts, but good advice on the 2000w.
