M Grills M16 Grunt Charcoal Grill
The M16 Grunt from M Grills is a rugged, American-made charcoal grill built for serious use. Constructed from 12-gauge raw carbon steel and fully welded, it prioritizes durability and heat retention over flashy finishes. It proudly carries the Made in USA with American Steel claim, emphasizing craftsmanship and long-term value. A gasket-sealed lid and a heavy-duty charcoal basket, paired with a Quad Damper system, deliver precise airflow and even heat across the cooking area for consistent results without over-charing. With solid stainless fasteners and hinges and a design free of cheap plastics or nickel-plated parts, the Grunt is designed to stand up to backyards, tailgates, and competitions alike. Craftsmanship is evident in the details: a 275-square-inch total cooking surface, weight around 88 pounds, and practical features that support real-world cooking. The grill ships with GrillGrate panels as standard for improved searing and even heat, and its removable coal basket and ash pan simplify cleanup. The M16 Grunt also offers portable versatility with a folding cart option and light, break-down design for events, while retaining a robust, all-steel core that epitomizes American-made quality. It’s a purposeful, long-lasting tool for those who value performance and American manufacturing.

About the maker
Meet M Grills.
M Grills is a family-owned BBQ brand rooted in a third-generation Texas machine shop, Magee Machine & Mfg in Mesquite. The “M” stands for Magee, and the company designs and fabricates grills and smokers with a clear focus on durability and performance. Each grill is handcrafted in Texas by skilled fabricators, and every component is made in-house (except casters and thermometers) using high-quality materials. The result is gear that feels “built like a tank”—a testament to American craftsmanship and a commitment to lasting quality. The lineup centers on American-made craftsmanship across charcoal grills, smokers, built-in grills, and related gear. A standout is the M1, nicknamed the Abrams Tank, which embodies their multifunctional approach: one cooker that can grill, smoke, and sear with a fully adjustable charcoal grate. M Grills emphasizes not mass-producing their products and plans to expand in three sizes, all while maintaining in-house fabrication in Texas and ensuring every part reflects the brand’s dedication to traditional, rugged American-made cooking tools.
