What type of grill for ice fishing???

the little coleman grills that run on the 1lb tanks are great for the ice......just remember that you do not need to let them warm up.......we found out the hard way when we let it warm up for 10 minutes or so and came out to melted grates!!!

I have one of those rectangle cheap ones that uses the 1lb tank. I have a Tee on my 11lb tank(or 20lb if driving on the lake). One hose goes into the heater and the other to the grill. If there is a small wind, use the house as a wind block. My setup on a windy day is to have the wind at the back of my Yukon. Then the grill will be right outside the door. There is nothing better than having brats while fishing. Unless you are warming up pizza from the night before on the heater for breakfast.

Weber rectangular charcoal grill on the ice, the legs lock the top on. I put enough charcoal in it before I leave for fishing, bring the chiminea along with 2 sheets of news paper. fire that puppy up about 20 minutes or so before I want to eat. I have fed 8 guys off that grill cooking on the tailgate of my truck on Mille Lacs in below zero temps. 8 burgers at a time, about 20 brats or so. I like the taste of charcoal better then gas, I also like to throw some mesquite chips on right before I put the meat on gives it a little of the southwest flavor to the meat.

Put the lid on when done and in about 20-30 minutes the grill is out and packed away for the next time. Beans go on the Mr. Heater/cooker in the shack.

I have a propane frying pan and 2 burner stove for the breakfasts if needed.

PS As you can tell from my avatar I'm not afraid to eat my own cooking. smile

We picked up a Weber Q gas model this summer for our camping trips, I was amazed at how even this thing cooks, I hesitated for the longest time based on price but this works better than most of the full size grills I have used. We set it on a picnic table or truck bed.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
