Brinkman Gas Grill By jb_shops on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
This is a wonderful grill. The stainless steel and cast-iron construction is a nice addition to any backyard deck for many years. The cast-iron grates allow even the casual griller to make professional looking grill marks on my steaks. The pull-out propane tank drawer is a handy way to extract and replace an empty container. I have found that you have to make sure not to get a taller LP bottle as the rim catches -- too bad they didn't make the opening about 3/8" taller. This unit has an ice bucket on the side. To me this provides little value. The marketing materials oversell the ability to clean the droppings from the drip trays & pans.
- The 4 cast iron burners deliver a total of 40,000 BTU
- The side burner is powerful as well up to 12,000 BTU
- This has an electronic igniter for easy starting
- The drawer under the burners is good for storing your cleaning tools, but the drawer gets dirty quickly.

I think most grill makers try and oversell the easy clean up aspect of their grills. we would be better served by their creating a truly quick and effective clean up product, or a preventative one to minimize this chore.
The propane tank drawer sounds like a great idea. Hopefully the future models will have a bit more space to prevent the lip from catching.
I like the storage draw, nice grill, thanks for sharing.
