We use a camp chef you can get griddles, flat tops even a pizza oven.

Here we go again,

Search the forum. Thousands of self proclaimed expert opinions based on no facts whatsoever.

Camp stove
Weber
Coleman
Blackstone griddle ( it’s not a grill)
NexGrill
What ever Sams, Walmart or Costco is selling
Traeger Scout or Ranger (no lpg required)

What’s best is the one they has the features you want and not what someone else wants.

BTW before someone throws out Blackstone’s BS slogan, you cannot smoke a 15 pound pork butt low and slow on a Blackstone, they are full of crap.

We converted a Weber grill to use the motorhome's regulated propane quick connect. The Weber fits nicely in an outside compartment. Because we do not have large outside storage compartments and tow a small Chevy Sonic, did not want to deal with a large grill.

We had a Blackstone but it was just too big and heavy. Got this portable grill at Home Depot for $99 at the end of season a couple years ago. Extremely light and foldable legs in as well. I was able to hook this up to the propane outlet on my SV34 and it works great.

They have some other portable grill options as well that are reasonably priced.....

Opening another can of worms :
I know you asked for grills to use the RV propane but since people are suggesting griddle and not grill.... I had two grills that used the RV propane and found out the flow(not pressure) from the Rv is not enough to feed the units with higher BTU capacity so we bought a Coleman Roadtrip and works great.
We just returned from our Labor day trip and during the weekend I cooked steak for 16 people two days in a row on it w/o problem....

Do you have a link or manufacture part number for your conversion kit?
I have the same weber and I am getting tired of the bottles!
Thanks

What's best for others may not be what's best for you.

Narrowing your selection to what's ready to attach to the RV's low pressure system really limits your choices.

1 - Find a grill that YOU like with the features that YOU want - chances are it will use high pressure either in 1 lb cylinders or a 20 lb tank.
2 - See if there is an adapter kit that will convert the grill for use with the RV's low pressure quick connect. If not:
3 - Purchase/install a high pressure connector before the RV regulator to supply the selected grill. One like this:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N95Y7PD

If 3 is not an acceptable option for you, go back to step 1.

Funny how the cowboys on the ranges of the old American West figured out how to cook their food, including steaks and all types of meat, with no propane, grill, smoker or Amazon to order that stuff from. Where did all the boy scouts go?? Then again... those cowboys weren't in a campground with 50amp service and two 15k air conditioners either!

And they didn't stay in RV parks with rules like:
"No ground fires allowed"

So buy the parts without the hose for $30+ or buy the kit with the hose for $25?

Why wouldn't you want to buy the kit?

When I did mine

1. Kit wasn’t available. The reliable kit hit the market a short time later. The kit sold by Propane gear at the times cost 50.00 and was not endorsed by Weber. This was discussed in the linked thread.
2. I already had 2 hoses and didn’t need a third.
3. We weren’t in a supply chain or inflated prices fiasco.

I'm planning on getting one of these flame kings
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IZCNOXK...v_ov_lig_dp_it
and a bumper mount
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L47VM0U...v_ov_lig_dp_it

I figured that would work well for me.

Thanks for the input. I ordered a Flame King with the low pressure hose. Hopefully it’ll be hot enough to burn a steak every once in a while.
