Real men grill. Even realer men grill and deep-fry. So, if you have the merest whiff of testosterone about you, you need the Blacktop 360 Party Hub, possibly the most accurately-named gadget ever made.
As if an outdoor grill with a (20-ounce) deep-fat fryer at its center wasn't cool enough, there are some extra-neat touches. For instance, the dials on the three heating zones all go up to 11, and the infrared burner on the grill is called the HELLFIRE (yes, in all-caps).
The ceramic grill can reach 650 degrees, and is complemented by a flat griddle and a warming plate as well as the deep fryer. The whole thing runs on a propane canister, and packs up into a fairly small bag for transport. There's even a clip-on oil container that lets you empty the fryer by tipping it up.
I always thought of grilling (U.S) or BBQing (rest of world) was a pretty healthy way to cook. Just you, your food and the blazing heat of burning charcoal. Now, though, you can take America's worst fatty food habits with you out into the wilderness. That's progress!
The Blacktop 360 Party Hub is available now, for $250.
