Nothing can kill a meal faster then undercooked meat! I’ve been guilty of this. Whether you’re a backyard Grill King, or the World’s Greatest Professional Chef – you could use the Oregon Scientific Wireless BBQ Thermometer. This is a digital, LCD screen, meat thermometer! Temperature range is -32F to 392F, and there is an audio alert for the option of your choice; almost ready, ready, over cooked and out-of-range (My wife would need an audio alert for BURNT). The range of the readout is 100 feet, and the probe is wireless! It’s a neat little gadget. The best price we found was for $29.99 at the link below:

As a guy that loves charcoal grilling, I am digging the Lumos. But it is more than just a grill. Simply flipping up the chimney transforms it into an elegant outdoor fireplace.

When the chimney is in the collapsed position, adding a wooden cutting board attachment gives you some counter space for plates, tools and condiments. I would love to trade in my hibachi for one of these (although, it could use a little more cooking surface area), but something tells me that this grill won’t come cheap.
