Portable Grills

Hospitality Connect lists 15 portable grills from SOGA, covering folding and box-type charcoal barbecue grills for camping, outdoor catering, markets and events.

Portable grills are chosen on cooking area and on how they pack down. A larger grill surface cooks more at once, but a folding model collapses flat and is easier to carry and store between jobs, which matters if the grill travels to a site each time. Box-type charcoal grills hold the fuel in an enclosed body, which contains the heat and the ash. Steel thickness affects how the grill holds heat and how it stands up to repeated use. Decide how many people you cook for at once, then choose the smallest grill that covers it.

Portable grill care

• End-of-event clean: Scrape grill bars while warm, wipe griddles, empty grease tray — easier than letting it solidify.
• LPG bottle inspection: Check fittings before each event — leaking gas is a serious incident.
• Cover when stored: Outdoor and pop-up grills accumulate dust between events — covers extend life.
• Replace damaged grates: Bent grates don't seat properly and reduce cooking surface — replace as needed.
• Service burners annually: Gas burners need annual service for performance and safety — licensed gas-fitter.
• Wet chemical extinguisher on-site: Required by most council event permits — replace when used or expired.
