Independence Day is coming on July 4th, and that means people will be getting together to light fireworks or watch fireworks shows, and--perhaps most importantly--cook great food.

There is no one great secret to turning out successful results at the grill--there are, however, a lot of little ones. One of those little secrets that really isn't much of a secret is that it is important to have the right tool for the job. But which tool and which job might be something of an unknown. It sounds like a catch-22, not being able to know what is needed before it is needed, but one way to avoid that is to have one tool that packs in a bit of everything. Since every griller needs a tool … Read more

Just because grilling season is officially under way doesn't mean that it's too late to reevaluate the grill situation. Nowadays grills come with options that range from the practical (integrated lighting) to the excessive (very few people probably need more than a dozen burners). But sometimes an accessory comes along that turns out to be absolutely essential. Like a deep fryer.

Grilling is all about good times that nobody wants to see come to end. So despite the encroachment of dark, boundaries get pushed as one more item gets thrown on the grill. And then ends up burnt to a crisp because nobody can see when grilling in the dark. Fun in the sun is fun and all, but when the sun goes down, it doesn't mean the party (or the food) has to end.

Food is meant to be shared, and that sentiment may be even truer (if possible) when it comes to grilled food; there's a reason burgers and hot dogs don't come in single-serve packages. But sometimes instead of bringing people to the food, it makes more sense to bring the food to the people.

It's almost that time of year again, but that doesn't mean you can't get a head start on the action. The grilling action, that is. After all, when it comes to grilling, any time is a good time--just sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate. But with sunnier days ahead, it is time to roll out the grill. Which also means it's time to clean it.

Purchasing a new grill is a big responsibility. Not only do prospective owners need to consider style and size, but they also have to decide between gas, wood, or charcoal. These things matter, as each option provides its own set of benefits. But just because owners are faced with the choice doesn't mean they have to decide. One company provides options for all three.

As we all know, upgrading isn't easy. When we make the decision to leave the old behind we are tasked with the pressure of finding something better. When it comes to cooking gear, implicit in this reality is the understanding that new equipment will somehow make us better cooks. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. However, we can console ourselves with an alternate benefit that new equipment provides: the ability to do more.

There is a yearly ritual that many of us go through. It starts off innocently enough, but it soon escalates in size and scope until there is no choice but to turn back and abandon the idea before it even starts. I'm talking about grilling season and the reoccurring dream that this year will be the year when all the equipment gets upgraded. It's easy enough to look at the short, stubby thing that has been kicking out burgers and franks and dream of something bigger, better, and shinier. However, as in any overwhelming journey, it has to … Read more
