Barbecues aren't just an outdoor activity or a quality meal, they're a bona fide pastime. Nothing satisfies quite like a piece of grilled meat and cold one. Alpina has taken portable, outdoor, day drinking - and grilling - to a whole new level with their mobile beer bar. Does anyone really want to have to deal with ... continue reading
As men, there are a few things that tend to be, exclusively, our realm: tire changing, lawn maintenance and grill management. Properly grilling steaks, burgers, other slabs of meat, encased meats, vegetables and anything else (try pizza and taquitos - seriously) isn't just a job, it's a duty. Thanks to modern technological ... continue reading
You probably already know the benefits of using whiskey stones instead of ice in your drink. Basically, they cool your drink without watering it down so you get all the flavor you expect at a bit more pleasant temperature. With these Icon Whiskey Stones, you can add a bit more fun to your boozing experience. Available ... continue reading
We're not sure how it started, but grilling meat sort of became a de facto gauge of a man's substance. If you torch your food into what looks like well-done meteorites, well, that doesn't do any favors for your image as a capable guy (which, if there's a definition of a "guy", it's someone who's capable). If you ... continue reading
Summertime grilling is fantastic. But let's be honest, dealing with the minutia of pulling together a grill session isn't. You need to tote out your BBQ, get the charcoal, the lighter fluid if you're inept lazy, and then there's the clean-up. Life would be grand(er) if the process were streamlined a bit. And turns ... continue reading
Magnets man, how do they work? Unfortunately for you, you're going to have to leave that one to ICP because there's magic everywhere in this bitch. But what we can tell you is that magnets are awesome - especially when they're built into other products. This light from Sur La Table is a must-have magnetic product for ... continue reading
Sometimes grilling can be a bit more of a headache than one would like. Getting the charcoal going, minding the coals, not dusting your burgers with ash when you give the fire a stir, etc. And while we appreciate the purist form of grilling involving burning solid matter, sometimes the ease of gas is called for. William-Sonoma's ... continue reading
Going out to restaurants to eat good food is so last year. When you can have sliders and smoked salmon without ever leaving the 5ft around your grill why shouldn't you be able to make beer can chicken easily? Barbecue god Steven Raichlen has solved the biggest problem of beer can chicken - getting it to stand up straight ... continue reading
Several years ago one of our editors, on an alpine camping trip, decided to make a fire and grill some food. We won't go into details, but some lessons learned that day were 1) don't make a fire at 2 in the morning after downing six beers, 2) sleeping bags ignite remarkably quickly, and 3) Cheetos taste way better ... continue reading
Sliders are a fantastic invention. Their bitty size means you can have like 50 of them and not feel like a bloated fat-ass. Grilling burgers the size of a poker chip involves a shit load of spatula work though, which is the only flip-side (badumpsh!) to the Slider's existence. Solve that one with William-Sonoma's Slider ... continue reading
There's little else that takes the wind out of the sails of your tailgate BBQ than realizing nobody brought a cooler to keep the beer cold. We suppose it would be worse if a freak asteroid landed nearby and devastated not only your tailgate but a large portion of the entire city, but that kind of shit is rare these ... continue reading
Summer is arriving, and with it comes all sorts of good things beyond warm weather. Actually, only bikinis and grilling come to mind right now, but both of those are biggies. And while we can't speak much on bikinis (they're awesome, the end.), we can say grilling takes on a whole new level with a smoker. We dig ... continue reading
Men love Asian Barbecue joints. Fact. Men also love saving a bunch of money so Asian Barbecue is hard to swing with the household bookkeeper because it's so damned expensive. With a starting investment of only a couple hundred bucks (don't worry, this isn't a pyramid scheme) you can have barbecue at your table without ... continue reading
For men, there is little - if anything - more important than the sacred art of preparing meat by way of fire. Your badass barbecue may be charcoal or natural gas or propane but you learned how to cook with tinder so that's less important than the rules. The woman buys the food and makes the salad. The man places the ... continue reading
Bugatti doesn't make grills, but if you're in the market for something of that caliber Grillworks grills are the closest you will ever find. Much like a Veyron, Grillworks grills come in a big package and do one thing really well. With up to 9 feet (yes, feet) of cooking area (dual-fire, or coals) they might be more ... continue reading
