Space efficient gas valves for grills

A grill, comprising:

• a gas valve including:
• a chamber;
• a flow control member disposed within the chamber, the flow control member being rotatable within the chamber between an open position and a closed position;
• an inlet conduit extending downwardly from the chamber, the inlet conduit including an inlet flow channel having an inlet;
• an outlet conduit extending upwardly from the chamber, the outlet conduit including an outlet flow channel having an outlet, wherein a gas train of the gas valve includes an S-shaped portion defined by the chamber and the outlet flow channel;
• and
• a stem operatively coupled to the flow control member such that rotation of the stem about an axis of rotation of the stem causes a corresponding rotation of the flow control member within the chamber about an axis of rotation of the flow control member, wherein the axis of rotation of the flow control member is coaxially aligned with the axis of rotation of the stem, and wherein the outlet of the outlet flow channel is located above the axis of rotation of the of the flow control member;
• a manifold coupled to the inlet conduit of the gas valve such that the inlet is in fluid communication with the manifold;
• a burner tube coupled to the outlet conduit of the gas valve such that the outlet is in fluid communication with the burner tube;
• and
• a control knob operatively coupled to the stem such that rotation of the control knob causes a corresponding rotation of the stem.
