Kuuma is actually a Swedish brand. I didn't know that until after I shot this video.

Good idea! Thanks

NE Florida represent!

Glad it helped! Enjoy.

Time flies!

Awesome. Yeah I've learned theres a hidden adustment screw on the regulator underneath the sticker. That helped a little, but mostly I've learned how to cook well with higher heat.

Update: the Dickinson is a shit bbq. 1 star. Would not recommend.

There's a hidden adjustment screw that isn't shown in the documentation, but that fixed the problem after someone made a comment about it.

Black char = flavor. 🤷‍♂️

Truth

Cullen Craft you were smart and seasoned it with some nice fat burgers. Good first layer of flavor for that grill. 😂. Also made me start looking at ordering one. Problem with my boat is the versatrack system. I’m gonna have to mod an adapter to attach the grill to because I don’t have rails. I’ve already been turning gears in my brain how to easily make an adapter to work with my versatrack rails on my V-20 targa fishing boat. I Imagine fresh grilled halibut or salmon while still On the water fishing.

The rattling was the final straw, but I was personally just underwhelmed. It would probably be just fine for other people. To each their own. Good luck!

The grill gets up to 500 on its own with a new propane canister. Even when it was brand new and sparkly with no food on it.

I’ve had my Kuuma for 5 years now and it works as good today as it did when it was new.

There's a grease pan built in on the bottom

Magma uses the most expensive grades of stainless steel which last nearly forever in the marine salt environment even with the extreme heat found inside a grill. It's not cheap though, because of that and also magma can charge whatever they want because of their reputation and the reality of the marine marketplace. You can find a 20 or more year old magma grill at a garage sale that has been on the rail of a saltwater boat that whole time and about all you will need to replace is the burner and be good to go again. This is how we got ours. The burner was $20 online on sale for a genuine Magma replacement. Don't buy at WestMarine as it will be twice that. I doubt these "better" grills will hold up like this at these prices since there is no way they can br using such good material at those prices. Most are made of genuine Chinesium. They probably do grill a little better and don't rattle like the magmas though. IMHO The Magma kettle grill seems to be a better design than the larger rectangular one and doesn't rattle like that. Defender often has sales and blemish/scratch and dent deals on the Magma kettle grills for well under $200.

It seals very well in practice.

Yes, the adjustment screw is hidden underneath the label on the regulator and not mentioned in any of the docs, but that did help solve the problem.

It isn't right now haha I took off the carbs to get rebuilt by a shop in town. There wasn't really any problem, but they absolutely needed a retune and might as well make them brand new while I'm at it

@@CullenCraft that's smart..everythig looks great you should be proud of yourself..being self-reliant is the best..

Nope. They hold tight. A little CA glue would make certain, but its good as is.

Yes! I've been very busy with stuff that doesn't really work for videos. My car died and I had to get another one, etc. More videos coming very soon.

Haha KZfaq is weird like that. Make sure to subscribe to see every new video!

Bought mine from Hodges Marine. This link right here www.hodgesmarine.com/kuu58173-kuuma-316-elite-gas-grill.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwpKCDBhBPEiwAFgBzj0qdxJIxE2MJXMTADCYXr0GDkdnCgT-FsQ6uJYl0BZ69Z5HbVTv0FBoC0hwQAvD_BwE

Coming very soon 👍

It looks like the price has gone up, unfortunately. I don't know if my comparison to magma is apples-to-apples anymore www.hodgesmarine.com/kuu58173-kuuma-316-elite-gas-grill.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwyaWZBhBGEiwACslQo3Sgeusvhrb8e7H2XXY7A6T7PzEyo63Ye4IYv2wd-n-M0qeBCZpdtxoCcDoQAvD_BwE

Transport was about 3,500 all in. Repairs and maintenance have cost about 4,000 over the last year. I do all my own work so that keeps costs down a little bit. The marina is 500 a month.

Mine has never leaked

I'm good friends with a Huckins historian. That is 100% in the future 😏

The cover itself is an option.... And you can just - buy them in different colors? "You know nearly had me on books till you got to color options on the book bag XD"

@@CullenCraft Just joking around bro

Ok sorry. Idk. Internet stuff is hard to understand.

Me too lol

The rail be wobbly :/

@@CullenCraft so it’s the rail not the arm?

I learned the hard way hahahaha

@@CullenCraft I like your addition of cumin but don't pack the burgers to tight and make them larger circumference so when they shrink they not reduced to a large ball. :) MMMM Tasty

It is absolutely cheaper than leading marine grill brands by a matter of hundreds of dollars. For this size and style were looking at 200ish vs 400ish

@@CullenCraft Ok cool- link to purchase?

Not affiliated or anything, but kuumaproducts.com will get you in the right direction

Brand new grill. Shiny surface with no surface character to shield the flames. Should have started with steak.

What's wrong in America is the shitty grill that was made here The kuuma is still going strong 3 years later and the magma wasn't even worth firing up once. Maybe america should make better stuff.

Lol it's cheddar cheese not american "cheese" but I can totally agree it deserved better

Two years later and it's packed up in it's travel bag to take it on vacation where I'll be using it to cook for my family reunion tomorrow
