If you are craving that flame-broiled taste but you are out of propane, follow this advice to heat up that grill in a snap.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A grill with a gas connection
A propane tank

Warning: Never light a grill with the cover closed. Always open the cover first.

Step 1: Remove empty tank

Make sure the gas valve is closed and unscrew the hose to remove the empty tank.

Step 2: Remove cover

Tear the perforated seal on the tank's bottle valve to remove the protective cover.

Tip: Bottle attachments vary. Refer to your grill's installation instructions.

Step 3: Secure gas hose

Connect the grill's gas hose to the new propane tank. Push the coupler into the valve and hand tighten the knob.

Step 4: Open the valve

Turn the bottle gas valve to the open position. Then light the grill and start cooking.
