Abstract Grilling apparatus with a support stand and with a grill tub which houses a heating arrangement in the form of an infrared gas radiator, which is supplied with gas from a bottle. The tub and heating arrangement are mounted on a support stand which at the same time serves as a housing for the bottle so that the bottle is protectively stored and does not interfere with the use of the grilling apparatus. The support stand may be walled in, the housing being provided with an opening. Alternatively, the housing arrangement may be made out of two housing halves, the separating plane of which extends parallel to the forefront of the grilling apparatus, the front halve of the housing being fastened, hinges to the back half of the housing. This separating plane can be extended through the mounted grill tub, so that the walls of the support frame form a one-piece housing with the walls of the grill tub.
In a gas grilling apparatus operable from a portable gas container, the apparatus comprising a grill assembly having a gas burner, a grill basin and a grill disposed in operative association, and means for coupling the portable gas container to the gas burner of the grill assembly, the improvement wherein the apparatus further comprises a completely hollOw housing having an upper portion for supporting the grill assembly, the hollow interior of the housing being bounded by at least four walls for receiving the portable gas container, and means defining an opening in at least one of the walls of the housing for providing external communication with the hollow interior of the housing.
