Portable grilling assembly
View Patent ↗A portable grilling assembly for cooking outdoors includes a stake that can be driven into the ground. The stake is comprised of a plurality of connectable sections such that the stake has an adjustable length. A grill is provided and the grill is removably coupled to the stake. The grill is slidably positioned on the stake such that the grill is positionable at a selected point along the stake. In this way the grill can be spaced a selected distance from the ground. A basket is removably coupled to the stake and the basket is slidably positioned on the stake such that the basket is positionable at a selected point along the stake. Moreover, the basket is comprised of a fire resistant material to contain a heat source for cooking on the grill.
1. A portable grilling assembly being configured to pierce the ground for orienting in a vertical fashion over a heat source for cooking, said assembly comprising:
a stake being configured to pierce the ground, said stake being comprised of a plurality of connectable sections such that said stake has an adjustable length, said stake having a first end and a second end;
a grill being removably coupled to said stake, said grill being slidably positioned on said stake such that said grill is positionable at a selected point along said stake wherein said grill is configured to be spaced a selected distance from the ground;
a basket being removably coupled to said stake, said basket being slidably positioned on said stake such that said basket is positionable at a selected point along said stake, said basket being comprised of a fire resistant material wherein said basket is configured to contain a heat source for cooking, said basket having a grip extending outwardly therefrom, said grip extending perpendicularly from a peripheral edge of said basket, said basket being symmetrical extending laterally in opposite directions away from said grip; and
a retainer being coupled to said grip, said retainer having an upper surface and a lower surface, said retainer being aligned with a central longitudinal axis of said grip.
2. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein:
said grill is comprised of a fire resistant material, said grill being alignable over said basket for cooking food items on said grill, said grill having a perimeter edge and a handle extending outwardly from said perimeter edge; and
a coupler being coupled to said grill, said coupler slidably engaging said stake to slidably retain said grill on said stake, said coupler having a top surface and a bottom surface; and
said coupler having an aperture extending through said top and bottom surfaces for insertably receiving said second end of said stake, said aperture having a bounding edge, said bounding edge frictionally engaging said stake when said handle supports a weight of said grill for retaining said grill at said selected point along said stake.
3. The assembly according to claim 2 , further comprising:
said second end being open; and
a stop being removably inserted into said second end of said stake to inhibit said coupler from sliding off of said stake, said stop including a cap and a stem, said second end of said stake insertably receiving said stem having said cap extending outwardly beyond an outer surface of said stake.
4. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein
said retainer has an opening extending through said upper and lower surfaces, said opening insertably receiving said second end of said stake having said basket being positioned below said grill on said stake, said opening having a bounding edge, said bounding edge of said opening frictionally engaging said stake when said grip supports a weight of said basket to retain said basket at said selected point along said stake.
5. A portable grilling assembly being configured to pierce the ground for orienting in a vertical fashion over a heat source for cooking, said assembly comprising:
a stake being configured to pierce the ground, said stake being comprised of a plurality of connectable sections such that said stake has an adjustable length, said stake having a first end and a second end, said first end tapering to a point for piercing the ground;
a grill being removably coupled to said stake, said grill being slidably positioned on said stake such that said grill is positionable at a selected point along said stake wherein said grill is configured to be spaced a selected distance from the ground, said grill being comprised of a fire resistant material, said grill being configured to be alignable with a heat source for cooking food items on said grill, said grill having a perimeter edge and a handle extending outwardly from said perimeter edge;
a coupler being coupled to said grill, said coupler slidably engaging said stake to slidably retain said grill on said stake, said coupler having a top surface and a bottom surface, said coupler having an aperture extending through said top and bottom surfaces for insertably receiving said second end of said stake, said aperture having a bounding edge, said bounding edge frictionally engaging said stake when said handle supports a weight of said grill for retaining said grill at said selected point along said stake;
a stop being removably inserted into said second end of said stake to inhibit said coupler from sliding off of said stake, said stop including a cap and a stem, said second end of said stake insertably receiving said stem having said cap extending outwardly beyond an outer surface of said stake; and
a basket being removably coupled to said stake, said basket being slidably positioned on said stake such that said basket is positionable at a selected point along said stake, said basket being comprised of a fire resistant material wherein said basket is configured to contain the heat source for cooking, said basket having grip extending outwardly therefrom, said grip extending perpendicularly from a peripheral edge of said basket, said basket being symmetrical extending laterally in opposite directions away from said grip; and
a retainer being coupled to said grip, said retainer having an upper surface and a lower surface, said retainer having an opening extending through said upper and lower surfaces, said opening insertably receiving said second end of said stake having said basket being positioned below said grill on said stake, said opening having a bounding edge, said bounding edge of said opening frictionally engaging said stake when said grip supports a weight of said basket to retain said basket at said selected point along said stake, said retainer being aligned with a central longitudinal axis of said grip.
