Guide Review - Party King Grills Swing 'N Smoke MVP-8400 Tailgate Grill
There are a couple of variations to this model but the MVP-8400 the most basic of the product line has the same grill and swing arm mounting (and umbrella stand). The grill is after all the most important part here and this grill is not unlike many of the gas grills you see in hardware stores these days. You get three stainless steel tubular burners, stainless steel vaporization barrier and a stainless steel/porcelain steel cooking chamber. These are all the features you would want on your backyard grill.
This grill gives you the option of running it on a pair of 1-pound disposable propane bottles. While the company says this can give you 2 to 3 hours of burn time depending on how hot you run the grill, if you are running it at full power you might not get a full hour out of it. At least that is based on the actual math. If you plan on grilling for long periods of time you will want to hook this gas grill up to a standard 20-pound tank.
