Our take on the Mountaineer

The Camp Chef Mountaineer is a tabletop propane grill built from aluminum with a suitcase-style latching lid, made to be carried to campsites, rafts and tailgates. It runs on propane and can be raised to standing height with Camp Chef leg accessories, so it works as a low tabletop unit or a full grill. Owners rate it well for portability and even cooking, though some find it heavy once loaded and note the legs are sold separately. It sits between small portable grills and full-size camp stoves on cooking area and heat output.

Questions and answers

Does the Mountaineer come with legs?
No. It is a tabletop grill; the leg accessories that raise it to standing height are sold separately.
What fuel does it use?
It runs on propane, so you need a propane tank or canister and a hose setup rather than charcoal.
Can I use it for tailgating?
Yes. It works on a table as-is, and with the legs it stands at grilling height for a parking-lot setup.
How does it compare with a full-size grill?
It has less cooking area and heat output than a backyard grill, but it is far easier to transport and store.
Is it good for river rafting trips?
Its aluminum body and latching lid suit rafting and overlanding, where space and weight matter.
How many people can it cook for?
It handles meals for a small group at camp; for a large crowd you would cook in batches.
Where is the Mountaineer cheapest?
At Camp Chef, for $469.99, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the Mountaineer?
Rated 4.3 out of 5 from 21 ratings.
