# Clever Dustbin Barbecues The BBQ 360 is Unassuming and Extraordinarily Easy to Use By Amelia Roblin | Published 2012-08-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bbq-360 References: [tuvie](http://www.tuvie.com/barbeque-party-is-more-fun-with-bbq-360-by-marco-marotto/) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/Garden-Unique-BBQ-360/4671489) Unlike many [outdoor cookers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ninja-flexflame), the BBQ 360 makes the task of grilling your supper seem a great deal simpler. It's compact and effortless to light, to clean and to cook to perfection, so that there's no reluctance to use it based on the expectation of a hassle. Marco Marotto's barbecue takes an unusual flaring cylindrical shape that bears more of a resemblance to a waste paper basket than to an outdoor stove. It narrows because it can, but maintains a smooth silhouette, comprising a discard drawer for ashes around the middle. Below the removable receptacle, a set of [grilling utensils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuisinart-outdoors) can be pulled out. But what's great about the crown of the BBQ 360 is its system of grate slots that provides three broiling heights above the [burning coals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thaan-grill). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Compact Outdoor Cookers:** Develop innovative, compact outdoor cookers that are easy to use and clean, providing a hassle-free grilling experience. - **Multi-function Barbecues:** Create barbecues with additional features and functionalities, such as removable receptacles and grilling utensil storage, to enhance convenience and efficiency. - **Adaptive Grilling Systems:** Design grilling systems with adjustable grate slots for multiple broiling heights, giving users more control and options for cooking their food. ### Who This Affects Most - **Outdoor Cooking Equipment:** Explore disruptive innovations in outdoor cooking equipment to improve functionality and user experience. - **Kitchen Appliance Manufacturing:** Integrate new features and designs in kitchen appliances, including barbecues, to meet the changing needs and preferences of consumers. - **Home and Garden Retail:** Offer innovative and efficient outdoor cooking solutions in home and garden retail stores, attracting customers with hassle-free grilling experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Compact Fan-Equipped BBQs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbecue-nx-smart-grill.md) - [Suitcase-Style Outdoor Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b2q-kit.md) - [Portable Suitcase-Style Barbecues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yuanye-folding-barbecue.md) - [Cooking-Friendly Outdoor Fireplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/regg-surprise.md) - [Convertible Outdoor Cooking Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooking-systems.md) - [Mini Modular Outdoor Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-griller.md) - [Old-Fashioned Toolbox Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-blaze-charcoal-grill.md) - [Smartphone-Connected Outdoor Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wood-pellet-barbecue-grill.md) - [Communal Outdoor Cooking Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-grill-table.md)
