That makes me wonder. If we pull out the camping stoves and grills, surely people will want to use or borrow them for their own cooking, heating up water, etc. What do you do? Loan it out? Offer to cook their food for them? There's also safety concerns as camp cooking requires more caution. And the last thing you want is a neighbor starting a fire with your stove.
That's why my plan does not include grilling outdoors. While I have the space, and I can get an outdoor grill, the population here is dense enough that someone is bound to ask, then another, then another, then another. I wouldn't mind cooking for a few other people, but I can't do more than that. That's just going to make me look like a jerk, and that's no good in situations where you may need your neighbor's help.
Camping stove, etc., are too small and too inconvenient to use indoors, and perhaps not even so safe. I decided on a portable gas stove, and after a bit of market research, I bought something from Iwatani. Their table top gas ranges are used in restaurants. They have extra safety features, and regulate heat output better. If you need high output, you can get their upper-end models. The construction is not necessarily what I'd call rugged, but it's better than the average. They use a proprietary butane mix, and their butane canisters can be attached to a crème brûlée torch. Their butane canisters seem to last a bit longer, too.
Here is a list of some of Iwatani's products from a restaurant supplies website:
