Portable Briefcase BBQs

This Barbecue Allows You to Cook With a Charcoal Grill Anywhere

— April 1, 2014 — Special
Hosting a barbecue in the summer is a great way for you to get your friends and family together; with this portable barbecue, you're able to use your favorite summer cooking method anywhere.

The portable charcoal grill is disguised as a steel briefcase and can literally be taken anywhere. The grill is perfect for the beach, patio, park or around the house. Since it's a charcoal grill, you'll get that great flavor infused into all the food you cook. When the case is closed, it measures 12.5-inches x 8.7-inches and is only 2.75-inches thick.

The briefcase BBQ is an absolute killer way to add a new dimension to any day trip. Instead of buying lunch off the closest hot-dog vendor, just break out the BBQ and host your own picnic.
