Camping grills

Which camping grill suits the way you cook outdoors?

Start with your plan for the evening: are you cooking for two, feeding a family, or making a relaxed meal for friends? A compact camping grill is ideal when you want a simple “set it up and cook” moment without bulky equipment. Look at pack size and weight, but also at stability once it is on the ground.

• For direct fire cooking: choose a raised, sturdy surface that keeps food above the embers.
• For mixed meals: pick a solution that also supports pans, so you can grill mains and heat sides.
• For packing small: favour fold-flat designs and included carry bags.

The Campfire Grill Trivet from easy camp is a good example of this practical approach: it packs down neatly, sets up fast, and works as both a grill and a trivet for cookware.

Why choose stainless steel for a camping grill?

Stainless steel makes a real difference outdoors because it handles heat, moisture, and frequent cleaning without demanding too much attention from you. In practice, that means fewer worries when the weather turns or when you are cooking on damp ground. It is also a sensible choice for food contact, with a surface that does not easily hold onto flavours or odours from previous meals.

When you cook over embers, splashes of marinade and fat are unavoidable. Stainless steel is easier to wipe down and scrub clean, and it keeps its shape well when exposed to high temperatures. Over time, that durability supports value for money because you are less likely to replace your gear after a few active seasons.

At easy camp, stainless steel shows up in key campfire items like the Campfire Grill Trivet and the Campfire Pot 4L, giving you reliable kit for simple gear for real adventures.

How do you grill over a campfire with a camping grill?

The most consistent results usually come from cooking over glowing embers, not tall flames. Give your fire time to burn down, then spread the embers into an even layer so the heat is steady. Set your camping grill so it feels stable before you add food, and keep a safe working area around it for children and pets. If you are using a foldable model like the Campfire Grill Trivet (36 × 19 × 16 cm when set up), the raised design helps keep food out of ash while still delivering that open-fire flavour.

If you want more control, the Campfire Aluminium Tripod (116 cm) lets you adjust cooking height by changing the chain length, and it pairs naturally with the stainless steel Campfire Pot 4L for stews, potatoes, or hot drinks alongside your grilled mains. If your trip includes evenings around the fire, explore our Campfire essentials to round out your setup.

What accessories make outdoor grilling simpler and more fun?

A smooth camp cooking routine comes from the small tools you reach for again and again. For open-fire snacking, the Campfire Grill Fork is a classic: it is telescopic up to 86 cm, so you can toast sausages or vegetables while keeping your hands comfortably away from the heat. It packs down to 31 cm and weighs very little, so it is easy to bring even when space is tight.

Lighting your fire is another place where the right tool helps. The Campfire Fire Steel is designed to throw sparks even when it has been soaked, which is useful when conditions are changeable. For prep and serving, the Fir Table gives you a stable base off the ground (and still packs small), which keeps cooking calmer on busy pitches.

To go beyond grilled mains, add Cook sets for simple sides, sauces, and one-pot extras.

Do you need a camping stove with grill for places with restrictions?

Not every campsite allows open fires, and some evenings are too windy to manage embers comfortably. That is when a camping stove with grill can be a practical backup, giving you a more controlled heat source while still keeping the outdoor cooking feel. It also helps when you want a quick breakfast without waiting for a fire to burn down.

At easy camp, we often suggest building a flexible setup: use a campfire grill when conditions and local rules allow it, and bring a compact stove system for the rest of the trip. It keeps the “no hassle - just pack up and head out on adventures” promise realistic, because you are not relying on one method only.

For hot drinks, instant meals, and washing-up water, pair your cooking kit with Kettles so boiling water is always straightforward.

How do you clean and store a camping grill after dinner?

Let the grill cool naturally, then remove loose ash and food debris before you pack it away. If you can, do a quick clean while the grill is still slightly warm (not hot) because residue lifts more easily. A soft brush and a little water are often enough, and stainless steel can handle a firmer scrub when needed. Avoid leaving the grill damp in a bag overnight; even corrosion-resistant materials last longer when they are dried properly.

For foldable designs, check hinges and legs for grit before you close everything up. If your grill comes with a carry bag, use it to keep soot away from other gear and to protect the surface during transport. A quick inspection at home—especially after cooking with sugary marinades—keeps your kit ready for the next trip and supports a long service life with regular, simple care.
