The grill is shaped much more like a container than a conventional barbecue, making it incredibly lightweight and compact. This allows consumers to carry the grill with them virtually anywhere. The Berghoff barbecue is designed to be a [social outdoor appliance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-1). The device features a small grill top with a enclosed lid that can be removed and slotted underneath the barbecue when in use. The grill is mobile and lights manually using [coals and a simplistic open flame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thaan-grill). The grill is ideal for cooking meats and vegetables on. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 76% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Compact Grill Containers:** Opportunity for manufacturers to create more portable and easy-to-carry grill options, making outdoor cooking more accessible and convenient for consumers. - **Social Outdoor Appliances:** The growing trend towards outdoor living and entertaining presents opportunities for businesses to create innovative appliances that enhance the social outdoor experience. - **Manual Grilling:** Opportunity for businesses to create unique and easy-to-use manual grilling devices that leverage simple fuel sources like coals and open flames. ### Who This Affects Most - **Outdoor Cooking:** Innovation opportunities in portable outdoor cooking gadgets and equipment. - **Outdoor Living and Entertaining:** Opportunities in creating innovative products that enhance the outdoor living and entertaining experience such as the Berghoff compact grill. - **Sustainable Fuel Sources:** The emphasis on eco-friendly and sustainable living presents opportunities for businesses to create grilling devices that utilise alternative and sustainable fuel sources to coal and gas. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Suitcase-Style Outdoor Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b2q-kit.md) - [Multilayer Portable Charcoal Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbeall-portable-charcoal-grill.md) - [Flatpack Campsite Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldable-camping-grill.md) - [Portable Suitcase-Style Barbecues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yuanye-folding-barbecue.md) - [Old-Fashioned Toolbox Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-blaze-charcoal-grill.md) - [Slender Off-Grid Barbecues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weber-traveler-portable-gas-grill.md) - [Suitcase-Style Portable Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-portable-charcoal-grill-smoker.md) - [Compact Tabletop Charcoal Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/afterglow-portable-charcoal-stove.md) - [Flatpack Titanium Camper Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-titanium-grill.md)
