The dirty little secret about most portable grills is that they aren't easily portable. A lot of them are very clumsy to handle and others give you a matchbox-sized grilling surface. You don't want those — you want this handy folding portable grill. It features a large 19in. x 14in. grilling surface, yet folds flat to only 2.5in.H. Clever design unfolds easily and allows you to start grilling in seconds. Includes grill, cooking grate and tote bag with shoulder strap. Item is factory shipped. ....read more

Rating:4 out of 5 stars
overall the grill is just fine, doesn’t take much space, the sides of the grill prevent the heat from escaping. i have not used it yet, but when it tried to assemble it, the bottom grill was hard to put in, and especially to take it out, so i have to modify it a little bit and cut the corners. now it is just perfect.
good value

well worth the money for what we want it for. Good quality for the money.
Will work well for tailgaiting.
It doesn’t get more portable than this one
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I originally bought a portable propane grill but found it took up too much space and sold it on craigslist after using a friend’s portable Weber grill at a recent tailgate. I was about to buy one of those until I came across the Bayou grill.
Gotta love the portability and design. You can’t find a grill that takes up less space in the trunk and has the same ample cooking area. It even comes with a nice bag to store it in. Unlike the other “portable” grills, I can keep this in my trunk all the time. On those factors alone, I would give it 5 stars.
While its reasonably well-made (this isn’t the $10 grill from the local drugstore)..it isn’t the quality of say, a Weber portable grill. That being said, it has a larger cooking area and takes less space in the trunk. However, its not a grill that I would leave outdoors between use.
For an occasional tailgater, like myself, it works perfectly (or for someone who doesn’t expect it to last more than a a season of heavy use). I did hesitate on buying this because it didn’t have a cover, but again the trade-off was trunk space
Because the price seems to keep going up, I’ve only given it 4 stars given its getting close to the price where one might expect a little more in terms of quality. I wish I’d bought a second one as a spare early on.
Great grill – however probably won’t last more than 2 summers

Heavy metal case and the fold down capability is great for portability. We’ve bought this grill to cook on the beach and it does a great job, I never did like the built in bbqs.
The only downside is I’ve managed to bend the metal in multiple places, the paint is starting to come off and there is some rust. This grill went through heavy use,almost every weekend from May 2009 to September 2009.
Best portable grill

I love this grill and would recommend it when space is an issue. I’ve used it for two tailgating seasons and it’s holding up better than I would have imagined. At [...] bucks, how could you go wrong? You could buy a new one every season for a lot less than the meat you put on it. Cooking is adequate for an open top charcoal grill, grilling surface area is pretty large considering and construction quality is decent. Design is great. The grill is reasonably stable after being assembled. I would recommend having some paper towels for cleanup in case any grease has run down the side of the grill. Setup and packing is easy. Only negative is the sides tend to warp a little after several uses due to the metal being exposed to the hot coals. It may require a little bending back into shape after multiple uses, but this is not really a big deal as you’ll see how a little flex inward will keep the upper grill tightly placed as it’s the key to overall stability. When you consider how this grill folds up to a few inches thick, a minor quirk is ok with me. The bag is good quality and keeps any ashes remaining sealed away during transport. For tailgating, I can’t think of something better when space is a concern. If you have room for a half drum smoker, go for it, but if you’re in a small suv or car with some friends, this is the way to go. Five stars for price vs. value.
Great Little Grill !!

This grill is the best purchase I made this summer ! Easy to carry, easy to assemble and easy to clean. It has made it possible for my girlfriends and I to have a spur of the moment day in the park without a whole lot of fuss.(And without the guys LOL)
Good grill for beginners

Very Portable and easy to assemble. Good for small places where space is an issue.
Pros: Light, Big and worth it.
Cons: None that I can think of
Flimsy – Had a broken one Delivered
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
We were excited to get our new grill as it was the right size for us to carry around with us as we love grilling. But it was a disappointment. The unit that we received was broken. I guess it was because the unit was pretty flimsy. The joints did not look well made. We had to return it the very next day itself. Amazon as always has done a great job at customer service. We had no problems with returning this product.
best portable charcoal grill ever
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
pros: compact, does the job, just awesome, $$$
cons: can’t think of any
bought this product 2 years ago and still works great. it’s compact and is awesome. only this is i wish there was some sort of cover but otherwise just fold up some tin foil and your set.
this thing comes camping with me all the time, i’ve even used it at my house if i want that charcoal grill taste.
Compact design & great surface area to cook on
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This grill is the most portable grill that I can find. At the same time, it provides enough cooking space to easily cook a dozen hamburgers at once. However, the portability of this product forces you to clean the grill after each use. A quick solution would be adding foil to the bottom of the grill to catch the ashes and other foodstuffs that may slide downwards.

I love this grill,I would tell my family and friends to buy it. Comes already assembled and it has it’s own carring case. Cool!!Bayou Classic Fold and Go Portable Grill
great cooking area for a small portable grill
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Around $20? are you kidding me?
This grill is perfect and the surface area is exactly what I needed.
I had one of those 12 inch diameter portables and always lamented that I couldn’t cook enough at one time.
So I wanted to find one with a nice surface area.
This has 266 sq inches of it for around $20.
Works great and I notice the weber portable for twice as much has only 165 sq inches.
Do yourself a favor, but this baby that folds down like a laptop when you are done.
Also, buy a weber chimney starter, you won’t believe how hot your your coals get in no time and with no need for lighter fluid and how much faster food cooks on this grill…(you did take my advice and purchased it, didn’t you?)
Totally recommended stove, perfect for camping.
Great grill for traveling
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I hate to write glowing reviews but this little grill definitely gets one. I love the size and portability of it. You fold it up and throw it in a bag and your done. It might take longer to pour the charcoal then to get this grill setup.
I have a few small hang-ups that prevent me from giving it 5 stars. The first is not having some sort of lid to go with it (but that would probably take away from it’s small size). The second is that I don’t think the paint will stand the test of time and will probably rust a bit on you.
Otherwise a great portable grill for tailgating or grilling in the park.
Nice product

ist ok for the price but if you are leving it outdoor be careful because it corrodes easily.

This is a great product for camping out. Just take a shovel full of coals from the fire, drop it in the fire box, and easy cook dinner
ailgating made easy
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
We have been going to the ny jets football games for over 30 years. The problem since I don`t care for trucks or suvs is space in my honda accord trunk. Well I don`t have that problem any more. With the Bayou it folds up and fits easily. But besides that you can use match light charcoal so in a matter of minutes the food is already cooking. No propane to buy and carry around. When we are finished just clean up and put back in the trunk. I would recomend this grill to anyone who has limited trunk space and loves to tailgate. PS it is cheaper then all the other grills at this size.
