Nice grills.  I got a Q 200 with folding cart for $20.  Brought to Deer Camp and loved it.

I was/am very tempted by the Q, as is Mrs. Foster Dahlet.  But, for $15, I figured the GGA was worth a shot.....if I ever found a Q200 for $20, I would certainly jump on that deal.

I had read somewhere that if you cut the cooking grate in half, you can store the two halves below the charcoal grate. Works really well because then you can store a Weber compact chimney inside the the grill. You can stuff it with charcoal and wood chips and fork or what ever else you can fit. That way it is total grill with only one thing to carry. I like a to foil the bottom below the fire grate/coals (being careful not to block the air holes) to catch the ashes for easy clean up and disposal. Oh, and those little prongs under the lid, those are so you can hang the lid on the side edge of the grill so you can tend the cook. Took me a while to figure that out since I like you got mine second hand.

Portable Kitchen?  Great grill, but, more $$ than I want to spend and larger than I want to carry. Nonetheless, it looks like a fantastic grill, and something I wouldn't mind owning one day.

Mine was super dirty and I had to clean sludge from the bottom but it works.  Ignitor is shot but I just use a long lighter and it will get to 500+ degrees per the oven thermometer.

Well I picked up a NOS GGA (2000?) for $15 and a CGA for $35.  The GGA was never assembled, but now has two very small chips in the porcelain which developed after I assembled it and locked the lid with the legs.  Oh well, it will make me feel less guilty for using it....I'll cook on these....and if I like em, they will make the trip.  If not, two Go Anywhere grills for the price of one isn't a bad deal anyway.

Having used both of these a few times, I am totally digging both of them.  They are great little cookers.  Highly recommended.  Still not sure if I am taking one or both on the big trip.  I will be practicing on them a lot over the next few months.
