Barbecook Arena Stainless Steel

This uniquely designed charcoal grill is one of the easiest to light. You place a couple of sheets of newspaper in the base and light the paper. Charcoal above will be lit quickly. The base holds a small water basin. Hot ashes from the grill fall through and are extinguished in the water. When you're done grilling you can simply pull out the...

Big Green Egg (Large) Charcoal Grill and Smoker Review

Big Green Egg (Large) Charcoal Grill and Smoker Review. Okay, this is marketed as a charcoal grill, but its ability to hold low temperatures for an incredible amount of time has made it and other Kamado cookers very popular amongst smokers. This "smoker" is based on an ancient Japanese design, made of ceramic and looks a little like a vertical...

Big Green Egg - Small

Big green egg has been producing these Kamado Style grills for decades. This one is the smaller of their models but is big enough to cook one 12-pound turkey. What makes this unit great is that while it can produce high temperatures due to the focused heat of its ceramic shell, it can also hold low temperatures making it a great smoker. It's the...

Big Green Egg Medium

Big green egg has been producing these Kamado Style grills for decades. This one is the mid-sized of their models and is big enough to cook one 18-pound turkeys. What makes this unit great is that while it can produce high temperatures due to the focused heat of its ceramic shell, it can also hold low temperatures making it a great smoker. It is...

Big Green Egg Mini

This mini version of the popular Big Green Egg charcoal grill gives you the best of two worlds, a great little charcoal grill and a hibachi. The excellent heat holding abilities of the thick body of this grill makes it great for grill and keeps the outside of the unit from becoming too hot to handle. This grill is large enough to grill up a...

Bubba Keg Convection Grill

The Bubba Keg Grill is so closely modeled on the size and shape of the Big Green Egg that grates and accessories are interchangeable, yet this metal version has some truly impressive innovative features and design. Capable of hitting very high temperatures while staying cool on the outside with great temperature control, this grill really is an...

Char-Broil CB940X Charcoal Grill

This is a modern update of the original Char-Broil charcoal grill. This Texas Style grill is basically a large box but makes an excellent piece of grilling equipment. Made entirely from cast iron and powder coated steel this grill isn't for the person who leaves their grill sitting in the back yard all winter and then expects it to miraculously...

Char-Griller Outlaw Charcoal Grill/Smoker

The Char-Griller Outlaw gives you over 1,000 square inches of cooking space in a charcoal grill that cooks hot and fast or low and slow (get the add-on offset firebox for serious barbecue). This is a traditional style barrel grill that gives you the best of both worlds. Heavy steel construction and durable grates will keep this grill running for...

The Orion Cooker

Describing what The Orion Cooker is may be the most difficult thing about it. Basically this is a charcoal fired roasting oven. The completely enclosed cooking chamber completely separates the flame from the food. This does not mean that you can not add smoke flavor and it does not mean that this is no better than your oven at cooking everything...

Weber 22 1/2-inch One-Touch Silver Charcoal Grill Review

Weber 22 1/2-inch One-Touch Silver Charcoal Grill Review. When you talk about charcoal grills, this is probably the one. This is the grill that made the Weber Company and the charcoal grill you see on TV. The reason? It's the best. The design of this grill is so good that it hasn't changed in decades. The circular shape creates a convection...

Weber 26 3/4" One-Touch Gold Charcoal Grill

Consider this the super-sized version of the ever popular Weber Kettle Grill. Large enough to cook four (maybe five) turkeys this grill is also loaded with upgrades. The over-sized ash catcher, the heavy stainless steel rod cooking grates, and the roll top lid all add up to not only a larger kettle, but a better one. Of course, whether or not...

Weber Performer Charcoal Grill Review

Weber Performer Charcoal Grill Review - This charcoal grill was designed to be nearly as convenient as a gas grill. Pour in the charcoal, turn on the gas and push the ignitor button. Ten minutes later you are ready to grill without using lighter fluid. The ashes fall into a removable ash catcher to be cleaned out later. Other than the gas...

Komodo Kamado OTB 23-inch Charcoal Grill

The history of the Kamado Charcoal Grill is too long and confusing to recount. Suffice to say that when Dennis Linkletter stumbled across these ceramic charcoal wonders, he knew he could make them better. From a reinvention of airflow, spring assisted lid, and laser cut stainless steel parts this is one loaded grill. It includes the EZQ...
