Son of Hibachi grill

I didn't see that lid--so that's a big plus for the kind of Q that I like to do.

Actually, depending on the amount of cooking surface, you could use it as a smoker:

By loading up only one side with coal and adding wood chips…putting a pork shoulder on the other and closing the lid…you got yourself a smoker.

Just out of curiosity I did a searc for a pig shaped grill and got this

but I never did find a pig shaped hibachi type grill

I use to see the little piggy Q's hibachi's in Cracker Barrel's BUT hav'nt seen one for a while not -- not that I frequent Cracker Barrels that often.

Most likely cheap Chinese knockoffs.

I picked up one of these Son of Hibachi grills at a big classic car parts and antiques sale in Wichita Kansas last year for $10. I just thought it was an old small grill that would work with my camper. I had no idea how cool it was till i watched the vids!! Mine only came with the grill the two grill surfaces and the lid/handle thing. I gotta have the bag and the ash tray. I wish i knew about it being "self cleaning" a long time ago. lol Now i cant wait to try lighting it standing up like that. Looks FUN! Or maybe im still feeling a buzz from all that hype on the infomercial.

How long doe's the bag stay warm? Could you use it after dinner to heat up the inside of your trailer. Or better yet a bed warmer.

This grille is very cool, but I had the same concerns. The best way to get good smoke flavor is to have a cover. That aside, I still would consider it because I wouldn't have to bring along the metal tube coal starter/burner. If the coals get started as quickly as the add implies. It would be worth the money in time alone. I could easily modify a large square deep cake pan as a lid if the "loading up only one side" idea didn't work.

Thanks for sharing Duane!

I saw one of these in action last summer I want one!

[GerryS]

Still using it? My wife found this and wants one. Looks good, but I don't want a cheap piece of stamped tin in my trailer, like the Coleman hibachi....

Sounds like a good sear is possible....it's so hard to do that without a 600 degree grill....
