As in most households, grilling is the mans’ job in ours. It is regarded as seriously and as primitively as can be expected from anything involving fire and raw meat. There is much uproar, dirt, grunting and beer involved in this tribal dance and any member of the clan will tell you, there is nothing pretty about this sacred ritual. Which is why this post will likely appeal to the more refined outdoor chef. Ladies, behold the Eva Solo Gas Grill.

Perhaps a streamlined garbage can isn’t what you picture when thinking about grills, but this puppy is designed with minimalist decor in mind while addressing some issues any grill owner will be impressed with.

The most attractive feature is the creative way in which this grill hides the gas barrel within its body successfully removing that unsightly thing from view and fooling your guests into believing you’re actually grilling with charcoal, the way you’re supposed to! In addition, there is a three burner cooking top to allow for easy temperature zone adjustment, a dome lid and a flat protective lid that also converts the grill into an additional patio table. It is also constructed exclusively of stainless steel for durability and easy maintenance.

With todays’ kitchen appliances constantly taking on incredible contemporary and innovative designs, this may just be the start of a new movement to take the design of our quintessential culinary tools outdoors! Although, at $2079.95, you may be content sticking with your trusty, rusty Webber.

I not only love to cook, I love using the proper equipment in order to do so. Anyone who owns a stand mixer and actually uses it will know what a pain it is to get ingredients into the mixing bowl without spilling while the beaters are working. These cleverly named POURfect bowls aim to solve that problem.

Obviously this would be a great help for every purpose in the kitchen that requires transferring ingredients from one place to another, not just when using a stand mixer.

It’s genius is in it’s simplicity. There’s a contoured spout that neatly directs the flow of your contents exactly where you need them to go, an ergonomic handle to comfortably rest on your hand as you pour, a latch used to stabilize and pivot the bowl against your stand mixer, and a nonslip rubber ring at the base to provide further stability on a counter top. They are also dishwasher and microwave safe and come in various sizes.

With my extensive kitchen gadgetry collection, I can’t believe I don’t already own these. That error will be amended immediately.
Chefs Catalog offers a set of two bowls (8-cup and 6-cup capacities) as well as a 2-cup POURfect beaker for $39.99

Oh, and if you need further demonstrations of how exactly this bowl works and all the ways in which you can use it, there’s a slew of video infomercials on POURfect.com. But wait! There’s more! If you act now, you can get them faster than if you were to act later!
