I think that's just gas grills being rubbish, sorry.

Got to agree with above post, they are inherently rubbish, nothing necessarily actually wrong with it (beyond not being at all efficient! - mine's been checked by service engineers and declared working OK!), it's the way they (all!) are!
Can't compare with domestic grill, which are generally quite useful!
Want toasted bread, use an electric toaster, or one of those tent camping toasters that go on a hob. Want to grill meat etc., forget it, you won't live long enough to see it cooked!!!!!
Truly a pointless appliance IMHO! Use it for warming plates (with heat from main oven), storage space for pans, etc. ANYTHING BUT a grill!
Sorry.

Typical of low pressure propane and butane grills.
I bought a camping toaster to use on the hob, the flat type not the pyramid type.

We recently had our van serviced, and it was noticed that the grill went out when all the other appliances were on gas e.g. oven, hobs and fridge.
Not a worry to me, as this does not normally occur when only the grill is on.
As a previous CORGI registered installer myself, I agreed with the service engineer that the possible cause was that the gas pipe was only 8mm, and it would have been better to be 10mm.
Not sure that I fancy going to the trouble of increasing the size to avoid an eventuallity that may possibly not happen.

We tried our grill once and never again as they are useless and a waste of gas!
