This is the sturdiest compact grill you’ll find at any price! If you don’t agree, we’ll give you your money back with no questions asked. Not only can you attach it to your trailer hitch for easy transport, you can also use it for gourmet-quality cooking. Our damper design lets you fine-tune the fire to suit your needs. Load this rascal with a handful of lump charcoal and you can choose from a roaring hot fire for searing steaks or an indirect cross-draft fire for slow roasting a whole chicken. This grill is big enough to easily cook up to a dozen burger patties at a time, a whole chicken, four nice steaks, or a Grillipede load of peppers or drumettes. During demos we’ve cooked a half dozen sausage dogs with grilled onions plus twenty five drumettes all in a single batch.

You can use the grill with its integrated base for table-top or camp site cooking, or use the optional Hitching Post trailer hitch adapter for tailgating fun. What makes the Traveller the best professional grade compact grill on the market?

Over 800 pounds standing on our grill. DON'T try this with other brands!

The Traveller isn’t for everyone. Each grill is made by hand here in the United States. At a tad over 50 pounds it has the heft that you would expect from a professional cooking tool—and the ruggedness that you won’t find with the wimpy product that are made in China. Compare our 16 gauge all-stainless construction with other grills. We also use premium cast iron grates instead of cheap chromed or coated wire grates like you’ll find elsewhere.

The Traveller is compact and easy to transport inside or outside of your vehicle. By using the Hitchin’ Post trailer hitch adapter you can take the grill anywhere and cook whenever you’re ready!

About the name…
Yes, we spelled it that way on purpose. We were inspired by “travellers” that we feel have a few traits in common with our grill. Traveller (spelled in the British manner with the double “L”) was the name of Gen. Robert E. Lee’s beloved horse. A contemporary of Lee once described Traveller as being “greatly admired in camp” for his “high spirit, bold carriage, and muscular strength” among other attributes.

“Traveller” is also a venerated Southern term used to describe paper or plastic cups that are dispensed to savvy bar patrons so that they may slyly convey partially-consumed adult beverages away from their favorite drinking establishments while on foot. As in, “Thomas, would you set me up with a traveller for my Jack & Coke so I can go check on my barbecue.”

In modern times, Irish Travellers are often linked to rural areas in the Carolinas and other southern states. Although frequently misunderstood and sometimes maligned, this group is noted for their outdoor cookery skills and are widely credited with the invention of the “Irish kettle” in the 1800s. The small, rugged, cleverly-designed Irish kettle allows the operator to boil water in as little as 3-5 minutes using only twigs or dry grass for fuel. The Irish kettle design is respected for its toughness, simplicity and ease of operation in even the worst weather.

Traveller is also the name of a unique role-playing game developed in the 1970s. The original edition featured compact rule booklets stored in a small, sturdy box. Yeah, that one’s a bit of a stretch.
