More Info →

Every meal cooked inside goes into a space you also sleep in. The grease, the smell, the heat, the counter you lose while it is running.

Swing it out at camp, swing it back to drive.

The grill lives on a standard 2-inch receiver — usually a factory or aftermarket frame-mounted hitch on a van — and stays there between stops. Full-size cooking outside the door, and not one cubic inch of interior storage given up to it.

The swing arm

One motion. Full access.

The patented dual swing arm mounts to your 2-inch receiver and rotates up to 180° on a locking hinge. Swing it out to cook, swing it back to close up — your tailgate, hatch, or camper door still opens all the way.

Two grills in one.

What the reviewers said

Best Portable Full-Size Grill of 2026

“The F-20 delivers true full-size grilling performance in a rugged, vehicle-mounted setup. The patented dual swing arm gives full tailgate access while you cook - a genuine engineering win.”
Men's Journal

Easy and Convenient

“If you are a grill master who also loves traveling, then the HitchFire F-20 may be exactly what you never knew you needed. Designed for those road trips or overlanding excursions where you don't want to hassle with the effort of setting up a grill.”
GearJunkie

Cooks Like a Dream

“The grill is to be the centerpiece of your adventure, it's tough to beat the hitch-mounted capability of this grill. It's portable, smart to use, and cooks meat like a dream. What more do you need?”

Before you ask

Will it fit my van?

Any standard 2-inch receiver. On a van that is usually a factory or aftermarket frame-mounted hitch. If your van has one, it fits — and if it turns out it does not, send it back. Free shipping both ways, no restocking fee.

Where does it go while I'm driving?

It stays mounted. Swing it back in against the van, pin it, and drive — there's nothing to break down, stow or find a cupboard for.

Does it block the rear doors?

No. The patented dual swing arm rotates up to 180° on a locking hinge, so your barn doors or hatch still open all the way while the grill is running.

I cook every night - are 1 lb bottles realistic?

Not really. At that rate you're buying and binning bottles constantly. A 5 lb refillable Gas Growler holds about five bottles' worth and tops up at most propane exchanges; if you already carry 1 lb bottles, the Travel Kit refills those from a 20 lb tank instead.

Can I use it away from the van?

Yes. Lift it off the swing arm and the integrated legs fold out, turning it into a freestanding tabletop grill.

What is the warranty?

Every HitchFire product carries a 2-year manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, with free shipping from the USA and free returns.
