Giant BBQ Grill Trailer: Electronics and Pork Make a Great Combination

Some men build skyscrapers. Some men build pyramids. And some men, really, really great men, build gigantic BBQ trailers. The winner of Crutchfield's "You Dream It We'll Help You Build It" contest, Michael Seville took his late father's three metre long galvanised propane tank and mounted it as the chief component of this 5.2 metre mobile BBQ. Then he stuffed the rest of the platform with electronics.
Chris Fox's Electrolux concept would be the missing piece in any Korean BBQ night out, if by "missing piece" you mean "a slight upgrade to what you currently have." Instead of one gigantic grill in the middle of the table, this concept links up many different cookers and plates via daisy chain and can all be powered by one outlet. Great for cooking your own meat to optimum tenderness, but even greater for having your own home BBQ without having to buy one of those industrial sized cookers. Just a design for now, damn it. [
With all of the heat a serious gaming rig can produce, it was only a matter of time before someone got the bright idea to turn a 
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:
I've always thought that a good char on a burger made it exponentially more delicious, but in case you're worried about carcinogens, Wellbas' water-cooled barbecue grill promises that your slab of meat will come out tender, juicy and completely char-free. Water is pumped from a reservoir through small pipes on the actual grill to keep it cool even as you cook.
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. [
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 flavour when 
The Memorial Day weekend is finally here. For many of us, that means it is time to travel and or bust out the grill and cook up some meat. However, with gas prices being the way they are, you may be passing on the road trip this year. So, now that you are free to focus on throwing the ultimate BBQ this weekend, you are going to need some serious equiptment—like the examples found after the break. And, unlike many of the 
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 US$14.95. [
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 US$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 apologise for ruining their otherwise perfectly lovely afternoon. [
