Sized for [small balconies and patios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/traeger-flatrock-2-zone), the barbecue offers 525 square inches of grilling space along with a 26,500 BTU burner system that can reach temperatures of up to 700 degree Fahrenheit. This makes it ideal for premium recipes that require [high temperatures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-huntsman-kettle-kamado) and customized control over the cooking area. The Fuego Professional Grill is the design work of industrial designer Robert Brunner and acknowledges the need for [compact yet professional appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smeg-builtin-electric-bbq-grill) as consumer living spaces continue to shrink in size. The unit discreetly hides the propane tank in the base of the structure to ensure everything is kept as neat as possible. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 73% | 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) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Compact Outdoor Grills:** Opportunity to create even smaller, more portable outdoor grills that can fit in even tighter spaces. - **High-temperature Grilling:** Opportunity to develop more grills with high BTU burner systems that can reach temperatures up to 700 degrees Fahrenheit. - **Innovative Design:** Opportunity to develop more stylish and functional designs that maximize grilling space while minimizing the overall size and footprint. ### Where This Applies - **Outdoor Cooking Equipment:** Potential for manufacturers of outdoor cooking equipment to diversify their product lines with more compact and high-temperature grill offerings to meet the needs of small space living. - **Industrial Design:** Opportunity for designers to create more innovative, space-saving designs for outdoor cooking equipment. - **Small Space Living:** Potential for manufacturers offering products for small space living to expand their offerings to include outdoor cooking equipment. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Collapsible Top-Heated Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/revo-stovigo.md) - [Ultra-Compact Cooking Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic-grill.md) - [Multilayer Portable Charcoal Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbeall-portable-charcoal-grill.md) - [Slender Off-Grid Barbecues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weber-traveler-portable-gas-grill.md) - [Suitcase-Style Outdoor Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b2q-kit.md) - [Compact Fan-Equipped BBQs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbecue-nx-smart-grill.md) - [High-End Flattop Barbecues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/traeger-flatrock-grill.md) - [High-Heat Dual-Mode Pellet Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recteq-xfire-pro.md) - [Old-Fashioned Toolbox Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-blaze-charcoal-grill.md)
