Lightweight Portable Charcoal Grills

The 'Charcoal Grill' Concept by Andrew Ferrier is Minimal

— November 28, 2019 — Art & Design
The 'Charcoal Grill' concept seen here has been designed by Andrew Ferrier as a minimalist piece of equipment for cooking an array of fare both in and out of the house. Boasting a distinctly minimal aesthetic, the grill boasts a fan-assisted functionality and is focused on safety to enhance the intuitive design of the cooker. The unit distances itself from the traditionally heavyset design of charcoal grills in favor of a lightweight profile that can be used for making meals in all seasons.

The 'Charcoal Grill' concept can be plugged in to activate the fan, which will streamline the lighting process and keep the unit cooking at the optimal temperature to accommodate recipes of all kinds to be thoroughly prepared.
