Good, Better, Best: Portable Grills

Warm weather really makes me want to get out of the kitchen, so thank goodness for portable grills that let me take my kitchen with me.

Warm weather really makes me want to get out of the kitchen, so thank goodness for portable grills that let me take my kitchen with me. When it comes to barbecuing outdoors, your choices range from cheap and disposable to expensive and luxurious, and all three of these grills cook up very tasty meat.

Good: When my friends and I gathered recently for a picnic in the park, one Weber grill devotee admitted that the sausages cooked on this Grill-N-Go Disposable Charcoal Grill ($8.99) tasted just as good as his. Plus, this version is lightweight and cleans up in a snap.

Get Your Grill On - Even In Small Spaces

Well folks, summer is just around the corner, and summer season means grilling season!

Well folks, summer is just around the corner, and summer season means grilling season! For those of you with a backyard or a nice patio, this is great news. But what about those of you who live in tiny apartments? Well don't fret; there are actually a couple of ways for you to get your grill on.

First is the Portable Picnic Grill from Sagaform. It's a sleek briefcase-sized box that quickly transforms into a mini-grill complete with spatula and turning fork. If you don't have space in your backyard, take it to the park, beach, etc. Costs $35.

The second option is for those of you with balconies. You may have seen this a while back (it seemed like it was all over every gadget blog on the planet), but the Bruce Grill is designed to hang off the edge of your balcony railing (similar to flower boxes). I think it's a fantastic idea, although I do have to warn you, this is probably not legal in most apartment complexes.
