TAMPA, Fla. — Bass Pro is recalling a popular propane gas grill because it poses a potential fire hazard.
The recall involves four and five burner models of MR. STEAK propane gas grills.
The problem involves the grill's fuel gauge and fuel line. Officials say the gas regulator hose with attached fuel gauge can melt if it comes in contact with the bottom of the grill’s firebox.
