Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Designed with on-the-go grillers in mind, this portable gas grill works as well on the back deck or patio as it does at the beach, a campsite, or tailgating parties. The collapsible unit features two durable wheels and a lift-and-lock mechanism--similar to rolling luggage--for smooth transport from one place to the next. When ready to grill, just lower the handle, extend the grill to its full height, slide on the handy side shelves, and connect the regulator and fuel tank. The grill requires a 1-pound LP cylinder for operation (sold separately), and it features Char-Broil's patented infrared cooking system, which reduces overall cooking time, uses 1/3 less gas, and creates no exposed flames, so there are less flare-ups to worry about. The grill may cook faster and more efficiently, but it doesn't sacrifice seared-in flavor or mouthwatering results.
Best of all, the unit provides a generous 290 square inches of grilling space for anything from hot dogs and hamburgers to salmon fillets, veggie shish-kabobs, thick slices of fresh pineapple, and other favorites. To add smoky flavor to meat and vegetables, simply drop wood chips through the grates and lower the lid using the stay- cool handle; choose from a variety of wood-smoking chips, including mesquite, hickory, alder, oak, or cherry (not included). For added convenience, the grill comes equipped with two removable coolers that sit side by side on the bottom shelf (a protective shield on the bottom of the grill keeps them safe from the heat). Each 30-quart cooler offers two easy-grip loop handles, a wrap-around zipper, and ample space for filling with ice, food, drinks, and other items that need to be kept cold. The portable gas grill measures approximately 29 by 44-1/2 by 37-1/2 inches and carries a 90-day limited warranty.
Take it Anywhere
 | The Grill2Go ICE is the perfect cooking companion for picnics, tailgates, camping, outdoor sporting events--you name it. First, the portability sets this apart. The lift and lock mechanism works very similar to a luggage roller bag and once in place you just slide on the side shelves and connect the regulator and fuel tank. For convenience, the ICE features two coolers designed for versatility. They are removable, 30 quarts in size, and allow you to easily transport your food and beverages with the grill with no hassle. The third unique feature of this grill is the cooking system. The Grill2Go ICE features Char Broil's patented infrared cooking system. The 290 square inches of grilling surface offer great taste and seared-in flavor, every time. The efficiency of infrared cooking cuts down on cooking time, and uses 1/3 less gas. No exposed flames means fewer flare ups, and if you want extra flavor just drop some wood chips through the grates to get a smoke grilled flavor. Take it anywhere. The Grill2Go ICE is a must have for those who like to have fun grilling wherever their travels and sense of fun may take them.

A GREAT concept for a tailgater, but you better have a strong back!,

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I live in a condo and only have a 1-car garage so, while I wanted to have a grill, there isn't much room in the garage (with my car in there) to have a big grill. The Grill2Go is nice because it is much slimmer (in depth from front to back) than pretty much any full-size grill I've ever seen. Sizewise, one of the downsides is that the 2 side trays do not fold down so, if you want to store it with the side trays, it is going to take up additional space width-wise beyond the size of the actual grill assembly. It wasn't a big deal to me, though I WAS used to having fold-down side trays in all my previous grills. Before writing this review, I used the grill to cook a variety of foods because I wanted to be able to report on how the grill performed in various circumstances. The foods I grilled on 4 separate occasions were: smallish New York strip steaks, thick-cut pork chops, chicken breast chunks with veggies on skewers (aka shishkebob), hamburgers and hot dogs. What I have learned about using this grill during this time is: 1. It is VERY important to give the grill adequate warm-up time. The instructions say to turn the grill on high and leave it to heat up for 15 minutes. In my experience, I would say that 20 or 25 minutes may be better, especially if, like me, you prefer a nice sear and grill marks on your food. 2. The instructions say to leave the grill on high for 15 minutes after you're done cooking to let the grease and such burn off. The books says that all the gunk is supposed to turn to ash. This was NOT my experience. 3. Each 1-pound propane container is adequate for a 15-20 minute warm-up, approximately a 20-30 minute grill time and a 15-20 minute "burn off" but not much more than that; i.e., don't expect to get multiple grill sessions out of each canister. And it is recommended to remove the canister when you put the grill away (i.e., don't store the grill with the canister attached). NOTE: The grill does NOT come with propane. I was able to find the 1-pound canisters at my local Lowe's. 4. The instructions say that if you're going to be grilling something fatty (i.e., steaks or burgers), you should leave the grill lid UP during grilling to lessen the chances of flare-ups. I did this on my first use (grilling 2 NY strip steaks) and ended up with steaks that were perfectly cooked on the inside and delectably tasty, but gray and bland on the outside--i.e., almost no searing or grill marks. Since then, I have left the lid closed almost 100% while grilling and have found that I had no flare-ups and had much better searing and grill marks. 5. While there is no question that the grill gets hot, I am used to cooking on a charcoal grill and I just don't seem to be getting the sear on this grill that I am used to. Perhaps that is just the nature of gas grills. I haven't owned a gas grill before, but I've eaten food cooked on them at other peoples' houses and never noticed the food looking gray like those steaks did. 6. Today was the first time I tried to warm up food in a pan on the grill. I was trying to heat up a pan of baked beans to go with the hot dogs I was grilling today but, after quite a long while on the grill, the beans were barely even warm, so I had to take them in and put them on the stove. Luckily, I was home and could do that. Perhaps if I had waited until the grill was fully heated first, I may have had a different experience. 7. While the concept of a portable grill that has built-in coolers is FANTASTIC for tailgaters and those who picnic at the beach or park, I found the reality less alluring. The grill is HEAVY, even with the coolers EMPTY! There's no way that I could get the grill into a vehicle by myself. Also, the handle which lifts up (like on a rolling suitcase) to move the grill does not lock into place, so it makes moving the grill really awkward--especially if you are a small person as I am and especially if the grill is HOT and you can't put your hands on it to steady it! The accompanying video will give you a look at the grill in action. I give CharBroil an A for effort as I think it is just an awesome concept. But, while I have really enjoyed having a grill again and love its small profile in my garage, the reality is that I would not be able to use it for its intended purpose without at least one other person (if not two), hence I could not give it 5 stars. Further, even moving the grill from the garage to the driveway to grill can be awkward because the handle doesn't lock in place. All in all, 3 stars. Note: The grill comes partially assembled but still requires a good bit of assembly. Due to the weight of the grill components, my neighbor, who is a retired engineer, put it together for me. He said it took him about an hour. Given the number of pieces and screws, I'd estimate that it would have taken me about twice that time IF I'd have been able to hold up the grill assembly and use the screwdriver at the same time, which I didn't think I'd be able to do.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
The Char Broil Grill 2 Go Ice grill is designed to be a portable grill to take along on camping trips, the beach, and tail-gating parties but can be used anywhere and anytime. The gimmicky part is the coolers, they are nice coolers and are great to have but I haven't left them on the bottom of the grill like intended. The nice canvas coolers wouldn't stay nice and clean under the grill for very long. All in all, I really like the grill. We have been using for a couple months now and can say that we love it.
The grill comes needing to be assembled but assembly is easy enough. It took me awhile to put it together but I did put it together all my myself following the instructions. The grill is made to use with the portable 1 lb. propane tanks but we have an adapter and long hose and use our's with a regular 20 lb. tank. The hose and adapter can be bought anywhere that sells grill parts. The grill uses about the same amount of gas as a regular grill and the small tanks don't last very long. The grill uses infrared heat with no exposed flames. For us, that is my favorite part. We don't have flare-ups so the meat doesn't get charred and the grilling method provides a lot of smoke so the meat has a very smoked flavored, even has a smoke ring but not as smoked as a smoker which I think provides too much of a smoke flavor. The grill is easy to use and start. Since using this grill, I have taken over the grilling job and can say that using the grill is great. We have just set the grill up to use everyday at our house but the portability is really nice too. We are campers and look forward to taking our grill with us. Remove the side shelves and a couple clicks to adjust the height and the grill collapses down to a more portable size and easy to roll around on the wheels. Highly satisfied with Char Broil Grill 2 Go.

Great concept, but cheap materials,
By pamela m punzalan (torrance, ca United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Char-Broil 08401504 Grill2Go ICE Portable Gas Grill (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this for my husband for Fathers Day. We'd been looking for a portable grill for some time, but couldn't find anything that was compact and still a full height grill. Then I saw this grill and saw that it got pretty good reviews, so I bought it. When my husband opened it, he was very impressed with the design concept. We loved how it could be collapsed and had a built in cart with wheels. But once we put the grill together we were very disappointed. The materials Char-Broil used are flimsy and the grill itself is made of very thin metal. The one we bought was already dented although the box showed no signs of damage. When my husband tried to collapse the grill, part of the plastic ball bearing system broke. There's no way this grill would ever withstand trips to and from parks, camping, etc. The only reason I'm giving it 2 stars is because the concept is great. Char-Broil just needs to use stronger parts.
