Grilling guide

Manhattan | Queens | Brooklyn | Bronx | Staten Island | Grilling gear | Grilling tips

Don’t want to rely on the city’s public grills? Bringing your own ensures that it’s your gross meat remnants sticking to the grill, and not something left behind by a squirrel.

European Outdoor Chef City Grill, $149.95
You can maneuver the City Grill’s funnel system to focus the heat on those particularly hard-to-cook meats. And, it can easily get up to 500 degrees without smoking or singeing your food.
Available at portable-grill-store.com

Weber Smokey Joe Gold, $39.70
If ever there was a classic, it’s the Smokey Joe Gold. This little baby will hold up for years of summer cookouts to come.
Available at P.C. Richard & Son, 120 E 14th St (212-979-2600)

Cobb Premier Grill, $139.95
While it’s cooking burgers and whole chickens with equal assurance at up to 450 degrees, the Cobb’s base stays cool to the touch, which makes it perfect for when you’ve got kids in tow, or a few too many Brooklyn Lagers in your system.
Available at cobbq.com

Steve Raichlen’s 20" Ultimate Locking Tongs, $13.59
You can move thick slabs of meat from grill to plate without squishing them—and you won’t have to build up your finger strength in order to clamp them down, either.
Available at 4thegrill.com

Weber stainless-steel spatula, $15.99
There’s no time to wrestle with that grease-encrusted burger—you’ve got hipsters to feed. This sturdy spatula will get you in and out without your patty looking like it’s been through a White Castle.
Available at weber.com

Backyard Warrior’s Fork It Over, $19.95
Sling chops like a pro, with minimal damage to the prized slab. You’ll also cut a formidable figure should any medieval bandits roll through your cookout.
Available at backyardwarriors.com
