Go Ahead And Enjoy It: Hot Dog Roller For The Grill

Stainless-Steel Hot Dog Roller -- for use on the grill.

Eternally-spinning hot dogs are quite mesmerizing; they seemingly hover upon a set of rollers, slowly spinning, wafting aroma into the air, beckoning us just to grab a bun and some mustard and dig in. But all too often, those rolling hot dogs don’t live up to expectations. Nothing cleanses like fire, and the Stainless-Steel Hot Dog Roller knows this. Designed for use on the grill, the hand-held hot dog accessory provides a convenient way to accept the siren song calling without suffering a convenience-store fate.

Portable Grill With Case (For Storage It Would Seem)

Lugging a grill to the park, beach or game requires effort–effort well worth it, but effort nonetheless. As this is a well-known fact, options exist for easy grill transport. The Picnic Time Caliente Portable BBQ Grill and Cooler is a simple little contraption designed to facilitate in getting the grill from here to there. Or, considering the weather, the convenient carrying tote that doubles as a water-resistant cooler would make for an excellent storage device.

Make Like Monopoly While At The Grill

Grill Charms Charmed Life Collection

In Monopoly, everybody has their favorite little game piece. In that game, nobody wants to get stuck being the wheelbarrow (the car, clearly is the best) but when it comes to grilling, nobody would mind being any of these little tokens.

The Grill Charms Charmed Life Collection is a set of six stainless steel markers designed to allow people to steak (ahem) their claim to their preferred meat at the grill. Like Monopoly, the choices are not always obvious to how they pertain to the activity, but like the thimble or shoe, you can still play the game. The choices are: palm tree, sailboat, four-leaf clover, crown, martini glass and dollar sign grill charm. Not sure which one is best, but I’ll take the one that marks a nice, juicy steak.

Put Your Name On That Steak

Original Monogram Branding Iron

Pointing at the steak or chop you have scoped out on the grill only goes so far. Some sneaky grill usurper can always come swooping in, stealing the precious grilled goodie and claim it as their own. “Well, I didn’t see your name on it,” they might say with a little smirk of their face. With a little forethought, you can have them turn the steak over and find out just how wrong they are.

The Original Monogram Branding Iron is a three-letter customizable grill accessory that literally puts your name on your food. (For those willing to share, the middle letter could be an &.) Available in a gift box, the branding iron could also serve as a not-too-subtle gift for those friends that have a tendency to always grab the wrong grilled goodie.
