Steven Raichlen has been called the “Shakespeare of barbecue”, but the ultimate goal of his long career has been to bring the joy of live fire cooking to people across all demographics and skill levels.

It’s easy to see why Raichlen would dedicate his life to exploring the world of smoke and fire in more than 50 countries on 6 continents.

This year also brings the second season of his popular PBS TV show, Steven Raichlen’s Project Smoke, and the gorgeous full-color Project Smoke companion book. Raichlen’s new direction reflects the explod - ing interest in smoking from the barbecuing and grilling public. More and more of us want to introduce soulful smoke flavors into our food, whether we grill over a hot fire or smoke the traditional way — low and slow. To meet smoke’s growing popularity, Raichlen has introduced new smoking products in his Best of Barbecue ™ product line, including his Stainless Steel Smoke Pucks, Cast Iron Smoking Grate / Plancha, and Smoked Food Log Book. But Raichlen hasn’t neglected the grilling classics. Everything you need for a cookout is here in this catalog. Grill baskets make cooking even the most difficult and delicate foods easy; racks for ribs, seafood, and even potatoes save space on your grill; oversize grill brushes and other ingenious tools make grill maintenance a snap.

An employee of Weber Brothers Metal Works just outside of Chicago, George welded metal buoys for a local yacht club. But that’s not all he did: George loved to grill. With a growing family at home, he found grilling the perfect way to relax, but couldn’t find a grill on the market that lived up to his high expectations. The most popular grill of the day was a flat open brazier— a product George found woefully under-engineered. He knew there had to be a better way. WEBER GRILL HISTORY Born From A Buoy One day, George was about to weld two buoy halves together when the idea hit: Why not use the bottom half for the cooking bowl, and the top half for the lid to create a grill? Piece by piece, his vision started coming together. He then added a handle and three legs and took his crazy-looking contraption home to test.

Choosing a grill is like picking a new car—your choice has a lot to do with your personality and how you plan on using your purchase. Do you insist on the latest model with all of the bells and whistles, or are you returning to a familiar tried-and- true brand that you’ve “driven” many times before? Are you a weekend “driver,” or do you plan to take long “trips”? Are you holding out for big, shiny bodywork, or would you be just as happy with a no-frills compact? There are three basic grill designs: kettle, brazier, and specialty/hybrid. Each has pas- sionate fans, but it is hard to argue that one is actually better than another. Regardless of the design, features to consider are ease of ash disposal, a thermometer in the lid to tell the inte- rior temperature, the size of the cooking grate, how additional briquets are added to an exist- ing fire, efficient air circulation (which is important to control the heat), and convenience of buying replacement parts. You don’t have to depend on tire-kicking at a dealership anymore, as there are many places online that compare different brands and have owner reviews. And grills can be purchased online, too, which is helpful if you have your heart set on an obscure Grill from the Gods that can’t be found at your local home and garden shop.
