Petromax Fire Grill – for controlled fire, grilling, and cooking outdoors
When the fire crackles outdoors and the scent of glowing charcoal fills the air, it's time for real outdoor grilling. That's exactly what the Petromax Fire Grill TG3 was developed for. This solid cast-iron grill combines the heat of an open fire with the stability and control of a classic grilling appliance.
With its robust cast-iron body, the TG3 stores heat for an exceptionally long time and distributes it evenly. This creates intense roasting aromas – whether meat, fish, or vegetables are on the grate.
The large grill grate, with a diameter of approximately 39 cm, offers ample space for multiple servings or even a Petromax Dutch oven up to size ft12. This allows the TG3 to be used not only as a grill but also as a cooking station for Dutch oven dishes.
Thanks to the practical carrying handle, the grill can be easily transported – perfect for camping, beach days, or campfire evenings in the garden.
Why this product?
Cooking over a fire works best when heat, distance, and fuel are controlled. That's precisely why functional fire pit accessories are crucial.
- more control over embers and heat
- more stable setup for pots, pans, or grilled food
- better process for campfire cooking and camp cooking
Practical tip: Embers are more predictable than flames
For many dishes, even embers are better than an open flame. First, build a bed of embers, then work with distance, air supply, and adding more fuel.

Our assessment (practical added value)
The TG3 is not a typical camping grill made of thin sheet steel. The solid cast iron stores heat significantly longer and ensures even temperatures – a clear advantage when grilling.
This effect is particularly noticeable when searing meat: the temperature does not drop immediately when food is placed on the grill. This creates intense roasting aromas and a beautiful crust.
In addition, the TG3 is an excellent cooking station for Dutch ovens. The grill grate easily supports a Dutch oven up to size ft12, allowing you to prepare stews, goulash, or bread on a stable platform.
Outdoor practice tips
Choose grate height carefully
The upper position is suitable for gentle grilling or vegetables. The lower position creates higher temperatures for steak or burgers.
Briquettes instead of charcoal for longer heat
Grill briquettes burn longer and more evenly than charcoal. Their use is worthwhile, especially for longer grilling sessions or when using a Dutch oven.
Use the tilt-door for adding fuel
If the heat subsides, new briquettes can be added through the side door without having to remove the food being grilled.
Also ideal as a Dutch oven station
Many outdoor cooks use the TG3 as a stable platform for their Dutch oven. This creates a compact cooking station.
