Full disclosure - it's been years since I owned a grill (I know), and also I'm an idiot.

I bought this from Lowe's and assembled it myself today

Lowe's

All the emphasis on liquid propane has me a bit confused. I've always just called it propane but my understanding is they're one in the same?

I'm not hooking up to natural gas - so the Blue Rhino 15lb propane tank out front of Lowe's is what I'm supposed to use for this grill, correct?

TIA

Admins if this belongs on a different board please move it. Thanks.

Liquid or gas, it's all the same. So the rhino is good to go.

What you’re getting in the Blue Rhino tank and all other tanks for grills is liquid propane.

Oh and for what it's worth, you bought a good little grill.

I have that same grill (older model). I use it 3-4 times a week every week for the past 5 yrs. A tank of propane lasts me a long while. Enjoy!

*Liquid/gas same deal. Just get the big propane tanks that you see at the grocery, costco, home depot, etc...

*My local Ace Hardware fills propane tanks to the top. I suggest finding a place like this if you can locate one near you. When you exchange propane tanks instead of refilling they are only 3/4 full

The terms propane and liquid propane are used interchangeably.
Propane gas when put under pressure in the tank turns it to a liquid.
