Char-Broil Table Top Gas Grill Review
Char-Broil's Table Top Gas Grill is a burner in a box. Read our review. Lightweight and inexpensive with a single, 11,000 BTU burner that is fueled by 16.4 oz. or 14.1 oz. propane cylinders. Lightweight is the operative word which is good for portability, not so good for durability. We give it our AmazingRibs.com Bronze Medal.
BioLite Portable Grill Review
The BioLite Portable Grill is an attachment for their compact, portable Campstove. We asked our science adviser, Dr. Greg Blonder to test and review this new grill. Although he had some appreciation for the CampStove, he was not pleased with the grill and we cannot recommend it.
Brinkmann Trailmaster 57″ Vertical Smoker Review
We advise readers to avoid cheap horizontal barrel offsets, but this inexpensive vertical smoker mitigates the basic design flaw of horizontal offsets: heat travels upward not sideways. The vertical smokebox allows heat go where it naturally wants to go: UP! We give this model our AmazingRibs.com Silver Medal.
Jambo Junior Review
Backyard Pitmasters read this review. Junior lacks the size and pizazz of Jambo's big, colorful competition rigs, but shares the same quality construction and thoughtful design features that make Jambo the choice of many award winning competitive teams and earn our AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal Award.

Broil-Mate 155364 Gas Grill Review
Broil-Mate 155364 Gas Grill is a throwback to the first gas grills. This AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal Award winner has a cast aluminum cookbox retains heat and distributes it evenly.

Smokenator Accessory For Kettle Grills Reviewed
We tested and reviewed Smokenator. It is not a cooker, but it is such an effective and economical accessory, we decided to include it in our searchable data base and award it our AmazingRibs.com Silver Medal for folks who want to grill and smoke, but don't have the budget for two dedicated cookers.

BODUM FYRKAT Picnic Charcoal Grill Review
Read our review. BODUM's FYRKAT Picnic Charcoal Grill is a small, portable kettle with a cool look, available in bright red and lime green. 15 inch diameter and 5.6 pound weight make it slightly smaller than the far superior Weber Smoky Joe which we unequivocally recommend over this product.
