Does anyone have an approximate guess on how long a 16.4 ounce tank of propane will last on a portable table-top grill?
We are planning on 90 minutes of cooking at a medium heat.
Any help at all is GREATLY appreciated.
16.4 ounce propane tank?

Depends on the grill…but the cylinders are cheap, and it’s always best to keep a spare or two handy. (90 minutes is probably a little longer than a single tank will last.)

I agree with rides 365. That pretty well eliminates my chance of winning best answer.

We use a Weber Q with 14.1 ounce (blue) cylinders and get over 90 minutes per cylinder, but the advice to have another backup supply handy is excellent.
If you can find the owner’s manual for your grill online it will likely have information about this. If you’re going to be grilling individual items, you may also find the cookout calculator at charcoalbob.com helpful.
