This is the grill you have cooked on at a state park without ever thinking about who made it. Pilot Rock builds commercial park equipment: heavy-gauge welded steel, finished to shrug off rain, snow and years of strangers using it badly.
Put one in a backyard and the calculus is simple. A department-store grill rusts through in a few seasons. This is specified by parks departments precisely because it does not, and the cooking grate adjusts and swivels the way a park grill has to.
Made in the USA — Pilot Rock is built by R.J. Thomas Mfg. Co. in Cherokee, Iowa, a third-generation family business making park equipment since 1959.
