All Star Tailgating Trailer Is Dream Bachelor Flat on Wheels

This is the All Star Tailgating Trailer. Or as I like to call it, the The Get-Drunk-n-Stuffed Out of the Stadium Party BBQ Trailer. This thing—which you can order with custom paint, I'll take naked women in naughty positions and flames on a black background, thank you very much—has all the stuff you need to have a party anywhere, from a beer tap to a giant 60" LCD projection TV with surround sound to a full barbecue and grill, all in a compact 6 x 12-foot space: More »

BBQ Baja is Barbeque in a Box

Charcoal grilling undoubtedly tastes better than gas, but coals can be a pain. This Baja BBQ is a solution to the more lazy among us who'd rather not deal with coal chimneys and lighter fluid. Constructed of 100% recycled biodegradable paper pulp, the Baja's 2 pounds of coals will be perfectly hot after 20 minutes and a match. And the whole thing sounds just eco friendly enough to satiate the yuppies who will be buying the Baja at the "gourmet supermarkets" soon. [Mike and Maaike via core77]

The Smoking Gun BBQs Without Bullets, Sadly

Anybody else out there a big Top Chef fan? Because The Smoking Gun is a product right out of Richard Blais' arsenal. Packable with any wood chips you like, the gun lets out a steady stream of smoke that can "marinate" foods in flavor when the grill just won't do. I'm not sure that I subscribe to the idea that Saran Wrapping some smoke around food for a few minutes while setting the table will rock one's palate, but you can give it a try yourself for $50.

Magnetic BBQ Tool Light Brightens Up Your Beef

Did you know that May is national BBQ month? If you haven't celebrated yet, I suggest you make up for lost time by firing up that grill morning, noon and night. That's right, you can even cook in the dark thanks to this LED BBQ tool light. It isn't the first BBQ light out there, but it is the only one that can attach magnetically to your spatula so you can catch all of the action close up. It even has a bendable neck for added versatility. If you think about it, this sort of device could come in handy in all sorts of situations outside of the grill. Not bad for only $14.95.

Folding "Notebook" Grill (For Mobile Meat)

Even small BBQ grills can be awkward to lug to a tailgate, but this Notebook Portable Flat-Folding BBQ is just about as simple as carrying a meat-charring incinerator can be. Priced at around $40, the Notebook BBQ can fold up when not in use, leaving your friend who agreed to carry the charcoal SOL. Once we learned how long the grill needed to cool to a holdable temperature, we could bust this thing out on a whim to spite those damned vegetarian sunbathers. Then, once the testosterone wore off, we'd apologize for ruining their otherwise perfectly lovely afternoon. [Gadget Shop via Coolest Gadgets]

BFG BBQ Shoots the Crap Out of Your Meatfest

This Fold-Flat Barbecue could make you the most popular guy on the block this summer. It's not like it's the first portable grill, but it is probably the easiest to carry around.

Big Train BBQ: All Aboard My Tummy

You'd have to be an April Fool (nice tie-in, huh?) to not like this massive hand-built locomotive grill and smoker. It recently fetched $12,370.95 on eBay, but considering that it's actually an eat-in kitchen (complete with booth), the price is really pretty reasonable. The conductor hat you wear while cooking, however, is not. More »

USB Powered BBQ ... Wtf?

This is one hell of a mod. Using 30 USB ports spread out over five USB PCI cards, this barbeque was created. The PC is still functional, too. Enjoy cooking a 1 ounce steak on that tiny grill—and no, I don't have a damn clue what they are trying to cook in the picture and video. It looks like a piece of bacon, but who the hell BBQs bacon like that? Hit the jump for the video. More »

BBQ Spatula with Built-In Meat Thermometer

Some of us are not exactly talented in the kitchen or around the grill, and sometimes it's a little difficult to tell when something is done just by "feel." That's where this $20 BBQ Spatula with a cooking thermometer attached can be a lifesaver, telling you if all those creepy crawlies are cooked out of that prize-winning chicken you're grilling. Poke the probe on the heel of the spatula into that meat, and you'll get a digital readout as well as a scale showing you ideal safe-cooked internal temperatures for beef, lamb, pork, chicken and turkey.

Flavored Food Skewers Take Guesswork Out of BBQ

As real men would know (not that I've ever claimed to be one), getting meats to taste just right, infused with a particular flavor, is an absolute nightmare when barbecuing. Sensing a way to make a couple of dollars, Callisons Inc. has come out with pre-seasoned skewers. Once soaked in the liquid of your choice, be it wine, beer or water for the Ned Flanders wannabes, the skewers are then thrust into the meat, where they gently release their sweet flavor. That's right, we keep the Fourth of July family friendly. More »
