This mod, minimalist grill is targeted at the design geek with a taste for blood. Flames were slow from the burner, but its 8,000 BTUs and sturdy grate retained heat well and left much-desired grill marks on a rack of ribs. The major drawback? Awkward setup. Its legs wouldn’t fold into place until the grill was untangled from a detachable propane regulator. [$150; grillsdirect.com]
