Gas grill

Has anyone here ever converted the table top Cuisinart 180 to work with the quick disconnect lp gas connector on our AS?

I just started using the Nexgrill from Home Depot, $149. Works out fine, you have to order a longer supply hose from Amazon and the right fitting to connect to the quick connection on the AS.

No clue, no experience with that one but, looked at the illustrated parts list and change didn't look easy. Are you set on that particular grill?

The problem will be with pressure. The AS quick connection is already regulated. There are options but we need to know what the OP wants. If using his model grill is top priority then suggestions can go that way. If using the quick connect is the top priority then suggestions can go toward that goal. Storage space available, grill surface sq inches, etc, are usually factors so the grill selected may be perfect but may not be compatible with the AS connection. There is always a way to solve

add to the above (coffee hasn't kicked in yet)
Vendor support is usually a best place to start if that particular model grill is first choice over all others.

Yes??
So why is what I showed wrong?
That blue round thing is NOT a regulator, it's an adapter. The hose has the quick connect on the RV end, and Torjic sez:
"The Torjikョ QUICK必EY makes connecting a low-pressure propane appliance to your RV's low-pressure female quick-connect easy. Simply remove the existing manufacturer's hose and regulator from the appliance and replace it with the QUICK必EY. Pair the QUICK必EY with the proper low-pressure male x female quick-connect hose like this one and you are set!"

Cuisinart's web site was no help. I found this on Torjic's site. It's the only thing that was a possible match.
The grill shown in the image was the Cuisinart CGG-180 as the OP indicated.

Of course, I may be missing the point since I haven't actually used MY low pressure port, but I assumed it's post regulator.

Then that may be just the thing. Didn't realize the blue thing was a passthrough replacement for the regulator. Nifty!
Thanks for the enlightenment!
Web sites in my experience don't offer much. I have wondered if it is because of liability that they don't share much about LPG requirements and options, or is it they just don't recognize a need. Showing a picture of a grill grate covered with a perfect meal is often about it.

The manual shows the built in regulator attached to a tube which runs to the control knob. You need that, so I'll speculate that the regulator screws into that tube. The tube is held in place with two screws into the grill floor.
