Buddy Heater Grill Modification

[kunzi26]

Hey all,

 

Buddy of mine and I have been wanting to make this for a while so I decided to order a cheap grill grate and give it a shot. We were sick of hauling out his Coleman grill with an extra propane canister. Worked out way better than I thought. Can't wait to put it to use! 

 

Here's the imgur gallery for more pictures and instructions on the build. Only took an hour and only cost me $10.

 

Turn Buddy Heater into a Grill

Enjoy!

Probably going to make a mess out of your Buddy Heater if you cook anything greasy on it!

Would work for cooking stuff in a pan though.

That's what I was thinking, bring an aluminum pan to cook with or cover the heater with aluminum when I fry anything. I mostly plan on heating hot dogs and coffee

hot ham and cheese or any hot sandwich would do the trick too mmm mmm

Chicken patties are fast, easy, and delicious with a slice of cheese over the top!

I just take the original grate off the buddy and put the pegs that go in the bottom into the top holes and it works really good!

This is what I came up with for reheating sandwich's ( wrapped in tin foil) . It is a paint / grate,. a couple of bucks at M****ds. I folded each side in 1 time to allow the hook end to fit the buddy handle, put a bend in it  and tweeked the  legs to fit into the front grill for added support. It is easy to install / remove, and fits in the bag with the heater.

I see this is not an original idea, but I thought I could add a little info and Pics.

I was looking into doing this as well but I didn't like that the rack hooked onto the plastic part of the heater. Also seemed like it might be bulky to transport. From what I hear it works really well though.
