Modern Home Products introduced the first gas grills to America in 1960. Made with cast aluminum, Modern Home Products grills withstand harsh outdoor conditions and won't rust. Some MHP owners love to brag about how old their grill is, how they never clean it and especially how they never cover it. In the 60s this cast aluminum design was the rule rather than exception. In recent years MHP introduced stainless steel grills bowing to changes in consumer tastes. Aluminum grills are still made by a few other companies like PGS right here in the USA. But you won't find these at any big box store where almost every grill is steel and, more often than not, made in China.
