(December 11, 2019) — Bass Pro has announced a recall of its popular MR. STEAK propane gas grill because it poses a potential fire hazard. The recall involves its four- and five-burner models of MR. STEAK propane gas grills.
The problem stems from the grill's fuel gauge and fuel line. Officials say the gas regulator hose with attached fuel gauge can melt if it comes into contact with the bottom of the grill’s firebox.
Bass Pro has received nine reports of grill fires occurring due to the defect. No injuries or property damage have been reported.
The recall involves model numbers:
• MS-4B-PG, SKU 2472264
• MS-5B-PG, SKU 2472265
The grills are stainless steel with black trim and have four or five black and red dials. The words “MR. STEAK” is printed below the thermometer on the grills’ lid.
The recall also applies to SKU numbers 2366916 and 2366917 if you added an aftermarket fuel gauge to the regulator assembly.
The model number can be located on a label inside the left compartment door or on the back of the grill. The SKU number is printed on the receipt.
The recalled grills were sold from May 2017 through July 2019 at Bass Pro Shops, Cabela’s and ABT Appliance & Electronics stores nationwide and online at basspro.com and cabelas.com.
Approximately 3,300 grills were sold in the U.S. with an additional 400 sold in Canada.
Anyone who purchased one of the recalled MR. STEAK grills should STOP using them immediately and contact the company for a free repair kit by calling 833-677-8325 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday-Friday or visit mrsteak.com and click “RECALL” or visit mrsteak.com/repairpartskit for information.
