Like it or not, summer is here, and that means it is time to cook outside. Many of our meals are cooked on a smoker or grill this time of year, so having the right tools is important.

The 3-burner gas grill is perfect for those quick cooks after work.
If you’ve been eyeing the outdoor griddle life but your bank account has been staging a protest, Traeger just dropped some news that’ll make your wallet (and your stomach) very happy. Following the massive success of their high-end Flatrock, the family is being expanded with the Traeger Irontop Series. Think of it as the Flatrock’s scrappy, high-achieving younger sibling: it’s got the same DNA and engineering prowess, but it’s priced for those of us who want premium smashed burgers without the “premium” price tag.
Traeger is expanding its lineup with the new Traeger Westwood Series, a pair of entry-level wood-pellet grills aimed at people who want that smoky, hardwood flavor without jumping straight into the company’s pricier backyard hardware.

Read on to see if the MeatStick V Duo is the key to your summer cooking success.
Packing for the backcountry usually means tough choices: bring the heavy gear and eat well, or go light and settle for sad, half-cooked camp meals. GrilTi 2.0 wants to change that with a titanium grill that’s light enough to toss in a backpack yet built to handle a proper meal over real fire. It’s not just a slab of metal; it’s a three-zone cooking surface designed for everything from seared steak to fried eggs, with enough clever design choices to make you forget you’re miles from the nearest kitchen.
The Jetboil Genesis Basecamp System isn’t a backpacking espresso gimmick or a heavy steel beast that eats your trunk space.

That’s the headline: the Genesis Basecamp is built for people who cook actual meals when camping, not just for those rehydrating noodles.
