Nice score.

We love using or GA gas grill.  We've had it for years and it's great for a quick hot dog or chicken tender cook.  Throw a couple of wood chips on top of the flavorizer plate and you get some nice quick smoke.

I replaced my rusted out flavorizer with a stainless steel model from this guy on ebay:

Also added the craycort cast iron grates and it's a pretty good cooker for searing.  The best part of the GA gas grill is my kids have been using it.  Now they want to know how to light the charcoal grill.  Passing on the Weberitis.

I've been looking for one of the used Go Anywhere Grills just for the wood handles. You can get three handles on one GA.  Does anyone know if these handles will fit on any 22" or 18" Kettle?

After reading this topic, now I'm thinking it's good to have one of these just as a portable cooker.

Here's one I saw with some nice handles but I'm not a "smoker".

I think if I came across a cool vintage GA - gasser or charcoal - I would pick it up. They are probably handy to have around.

The gas GA was my go to for camping for years. I upgraded to a Q100, but still use this on my boat.  These cook very well!

The gas ga makes a badass hot dog cooker!  I think I prefer hot dogs on this over the kettles.



Picture doesn't do it justice. The hot dogs had great color and cooked very even. Piping hot in the middle with very little char.
