Overview

A compact charcoal grill from Allen with a cast iron body, 180 square inches of cooking area, and a low 3.5 inch height that points to a tabletop or hibachi-style design.

A single burner and cast iron construction keep this in the small, portable grill category rather than a full-size backyard unit. The low profile at 3.5 inches tall and modest 18.75 by 11 inch footprint fits on a table or ledge rather than standing on the ground.

  • 3.5 x 18.75 x 11 in

Who it's for

Suits someone wanting a small charcoal grill for a patio table, balcony, or camping trip rather than full family cookouts. Not sized for feeding a crowd given the 180 square inch cooking area.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Cast iron retains heat for searing
  • Compact size fits small spaces
  • Low, stable 3.5 in profile
Cons
  • 180 sq in area limits how much food fits at once
  • Charcoal only, no gas option

Performance notes

Cast iron holds heat well once the charcoal is lit, which helps with steady searing on a small grill like this, though the single-burner charcoal design offers less heat zone control than a multi-burner gas grill.
