ESPRESSO SET

Don’t let cooking out keep

you from a good cup of joe.

GSI’s stainless steel Mini

Espresso Set takes seconds

to assemble and makes a

strong cup of coffee in less

than three minutes over your

chosen heat source—grill,

camp stove, or (when you’re

not roughing it) stovetop.

HERO GRILL

With its grab-and-go case

and biodegradable charcoal

pod, the laptop-size Hero

deliver 60 minutes of grilling

action, perfect for picnics,

camping, and tailgating.

Lightweight and versatile,

Snow Peak’s Kojin Grill has

an adjustable charcoal tray

THIS SUMMER, my go-to party trick is showing up with

the Fireflower. This flat-pack portable firepit comes

together in seconds, thanks to the genius of architect

and designer David Grisham. Simply slide the notched

pieces together and voilà! It’s the perfect foundation for

a campfire, whether you plan to roast marshmallows or

just keep warm after enjoying a sunset on the beach.

The pit can even turn into a full-on grill thanks to a

grate that conveniently fits into the assembled base.
