Can I use a pot or pan on a portable grill? I am looking for a new camping grill and am not sure what to buy

Question

I had a standard Coleman gas one with a burner on one side and a grill on the other. It just broke so I need to buy a new stove and/or grill. If I buy a portable gas grill without a burner can I put a pot, pan or coffee percolator on it? Also, if I get one of these... Is it safe to use lava rocks or briquettes? Won't this help with heat distribution? So far the Weber Go-Anywhere Grill looks like something that might work but I am not sure about the above questions. Thanks a ton!

Answer 1

The Weber Go-Anywhere grill is great. Of course you can put a pot on it and use it like a stove. The thing I like about the Weber's is the temp is easy to control. I use the propane model, but Briquettes are fine on the other models, not on the propane ones though.

Answer 2

you can use both as long as they're built for it, like if they're iron, aluminum, & pyrex ( glass pots & pans) make sure they're marked,

safe for fire, electric, or microwave use.
