Or sometimes you lust need a little more light. This Handle Mount Grill Light is the perfect gadget to help with these problems.

The light is made to fit on any grill handle, and lets you see what’s ready and what needs more time on the grill. The light is water-resistant, so you can leave it mounted all year long in any weather. No more fumbling around in the dark to try and see what you’re doing or grabbing the wrong utensil.

Okay, so it’s just a barbecue. But it has some nifty and convenient features that gadget lovers will appreciate. Like Weber’s One-Touch cleaning system.

The system is essentially a bunch of lever-activated blades that sift ash out of the kettle and into a cooking-pot-shaped ash catcher. This means that you don’t have to get your hands dirty to when cleaning the barbecue.

When designing this grill, Weber clearly kept convenience in mind. The grill’s The grill is durable, too. The porcelain-coated steel bowl and lid are exceptionally strong and designed never to rust, fade, or peel. The grill’s aluminum vents and ash catcher won’t rust either, and its tripod base, nylon handles, and all-weather wheels–besides being exceptionally sturdy–make the grill remarkably easy to maneuver.

This cooker lets you grill, roast, or smoke in one unit.

The cooker has three components; a charcoal basket, a cooking chamber, and a lid that let you roast or smoke up to six whole chickens at once. If you ever have the need to cook six whole chickens at once.

“The cooking chamber removes with a flip of a latch, converting the unit into a standard kettle grill for tailgating or grilling on the be ach. Dual, 17″-diameter chrome-plated grill grates line the top and bottom of the cooking chamber, allowing you to separate meat and vegetables. Two doors allow you to easily add charcoal, wood chips, or adjust the food as it cooks, and the temperature gauge on the lid provides accurate readings.”

No more lighter fluid, no more numerous failed attempts at getting the charcoal started while every one stares hungrily at the pile of uncooked burgers. This barbecue starter ignites charcoal in 60 seconds without lighter fluid, so you can start grilling in five minutes.

Plug the Starter into an outlet, put the tip into the charcoal, wait for a spark and keep the starter in the charcoal fro a further 60 seconds, and that’s it!

“…the charcoal starter emits hot air at 1,290° F, providing a constant, precise flow of heat from the tip of the unit. Simply plug the device into a standard wall outlet, place the metal tip into the charcoal and hold down the button. When the charcoal sparks, remove the tip from the coals, but continue to point the unit at the charcoal for sixty seconds. Also ideal for lighting a wood-burning fireplace, the device has a cool-touch handle and an integrated stand.”

Swedish FireSteel was originally developed for the Swedish Department of Defense. You slowly move a metal blade across the Firesteel, creating nearly 3,000°C (5,500°F) sparks that can easily be thrown onto a small pile of dry grass, leaves, or paper to start a fire.

If you like to go camping and want to start campfires quickly, or even if you just need help lighting the barbecue, this FireSteel will last for approximately 12,000 strikes and works just as well in the rain and snow as it does when it’s a sunny day.

Check price and availability at ThinkGeek.

“Used by a number of armies around the world, Swedish FireSteel’s dependability has already made it a favorite of survival experts, hunters, fishermen and campers. It has also found its way into cabins and backyards as a fool-proof way to light stoves and gas-barbecues. Amazingly enough it also works equally well when wet. We think geeks will appreciate the power of being able to start a fire with such a simple tool.”
