Blackstone to EYI's gas extension.

So the Blackstone is 1/4" line,the line coming off the trailer is 3/8". What fitting do I use to get those together for quick disconnect?

I really need a fitting to adapt from a 1/4" on my Blackstone to the 3/8" feed line.

I'm looking for the same thing. Impossible to find. I gave up for this week. Just bought some small propane tanks to connect to the Blackstone regulator because we are needing it for the upcoming weekend.

Hmmm, I thought it was all 1/4". I have used the adapter I referenced with my Blackstone griddle.

The only option is a low pressure quick connect with a 12' hose.

I think the hose supplied has a 3/8 flare on one end and 1/4 qd on the other end. I think I bought a different hose along with the adapter if I remember right.

Here is a previous post on both the adapter for the Blackstone grill and how to hookup an Outland Firebowl to it also. It allows the Blackstone off of the trailer quick connect, a 20 lb propane tank, or a 1 pound propane tank. And the firebowl off the trailer quick connect or 20 lb propane tank.

I added a low pressure propane quick connect to it.

I also purchased an Outland Propane Firebowl.

I replaced it's hose with regulator with a quick connect hose.

18 FT RV Quick Connect Propane Hose for RV to Grill for Camp Chef Stove and Fire Pit- 3/8 Female Flare Fitting x 1/4 Full Flow Quick

I then added a female quick connect to the hose with a built in regulator that came off the firebowl.

1/4" RV Propane Quick Connect Adapter for Propane Hose, Propane or Natural Gas 1/4" Quick Connect or Disconnect Kit - Shutoff Valve & Full Flow Plug

Now I can run my Blackstone off of the trailer quick connect, a 20 lb propane tank, or a 1 pound propane tank. And my firebowl off the trailer quick connect or 20 lb propane tank.

@TTMartin thanks for posting the links to the exact parts needed. I was able to order them from Amazon and now I can run the same exact setup. I love having hookup options!

I appreciate all the help everyone on this forum has provided!
