Grizzly 40 Quart Cooler Review
If you’re seeking a well made, heavy duty cooler then Grizzly coolers are a good option.
Other than the Coleman reviewed here, the Grizzly 40-quart cooler is the least expensive cooler we tested. It uses a freezer-grade gasket to seal the cooler, is rotationally molded, employs a dual handle system of a rope/rubber/nylon-sleeved handle as well as molded.
The Grizzly cooler features heavy duty handles, has molded lock eyelets, non-slip and non-marking rubber feet so the unit wonโt slide, multiple tie-down points, a large leak-proof drain spigot, and a molded-in hinge. It is IGBC (Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee) certified against destruction by grizzly bears.

Heat retention. Ham temperature dropped to 145หF in 2.85 hrs.
