Outdoor cooking?

I have the sidekick grill and really like it. Does anyone know if there is a one or two burner stove that will fit the sidekick mounts. My search has not produced positive results. I'am leaning toward modifying a coleman camp stove any thoughts?

I am assuming when you refer to sidekick mounts that this is the extruded aluminum rail attached to the side of your coach, yes?
The stoves both 2 or 3 burner can be had from the dealer. It's the same ones from a PUP.
When I bought my TT, I had requested that the dealer order/swap out the RVQ for a stove. It ended up being the 3 burner. I've seen the 2 burner as well and either suburban stoves are desirable configurations. The 2 -burner will be much easier to store/ or find a smaller tote to keep it in. The 3 burner will be hard to find a box to fit in. I ended up making one since my TT is storage space challenged. It also came with the folding shelf that goes on the rail

My sidekick has very uneven cooking. I'm not impressed by it. I'm getting by with it until I save up enough for a replacement that I can hook into the trailer gas line. Right now I have to concentrate on getting through back to school shopping.

I have a high pressure outdoor stove that came from a popup. It was made to hang on the side of the popup. I modified it so now it will set on the top of a table. I did not like the idea of having it hang on the side of my camper.

I do 95% of my cooking outside, (my camper is small anyway and I like the outdoors). I had to plumb in a high pressure line. I plumbed it to the back of my camper with hook ups for the stove and grill. It could also supply other types of devices that use the higher pressure. I installed an adjustable regulator in front of my low pressure and have it set to 16 psi. I then put a T in the line and ran a 3/8 inch soft copper line to the back of the camper. I covered the copper with a rubber hose wherever it came in contact with the frame of the trailer.

The high pressure regulator is a single stage. I believe that is okay for the use. Of course the low pressure regulator is a two stage, but I am already dropping the pressure so the first stage does not have to work as hard. So far, I have not seen an issue. If an issue comes up, or someone fusses at me, I will move the high pressure regulator to after the T and then the low pressure regulator will not know the high pressure regulator even exists. I used flare fittings on everything which is acceptable for propane.

Thanks to all for the reply my goal was to be able to use the barbecue (sidekick) mounting bracket for an outside cook stove. I never gave a thought to the stoves from the pup's thanks Jeff. Thats what great about this forum you can get almost any question answered or problem solved.
