Griddles are a fantastic option for outdoor cooking, and the LoCo Cookers 3-burner griddle is on an amazing sale for Memorial Day weekend. With 740 square inches of cooking space, you can feed everyone at the party with no problems. Aside from the flexibility that using a gas griddle offers, this model from LoCo comes with a dual-door cabinet for storage, two side tables and a built-in lid. At only $350, it’s basically a must-buy.

Charcoal barrel smokers are perfect for getting a good even cook on your food and adding delicious smokey flavors. Even better, these cookers take up very little room, so they’re perfect for smaller patios. The Costway 3-in-1 smoker and grill has two grill racks offering 400 square inches of cooking space. You can also set up the smoker to act as a regular grill or as a fire pit, so at $80, it’s hard to pass it up.

Summer usually means camping, going to the park, beach time and more out-and-about adventures. Cooking on the go with a grill can be cumbersome, but the Cuisinart Venture portable gas grill isn’t only portable but also looks great. It sort of reminds me of a small cooler, but it packs some really great features. Fueled by propane, you can skip worrying about ashes. The wooden lid can double as a cutting board to make for an easy, all-in-one grill.

Cooking with charcoal offers some delicious flavors but can be a hassle when you don’t have enough to finish cooking, or you want to do a long smoke. Masterbuilt’s cooker solves those issues and elevates outdoor cooking with some really useful features. The vertical gravity-fed hopper can hold up to 10 hours of charcoal, and with built-in Wi-Fi and the Masterbuilt app, you can keep your cook going perfectly. Along with smoking, you’ll also be able to grill, and with the flat-top griddle insert, you will be ready to cook anything.

The name Traeger is generally the most recognizable brand in the pellet grill world. These reliable cookers offer an approachable way to cook your food with real wood smoke flavor. The Traeger Grills Pro 575 electric wood pellet grill and smoker packs a lot of features into a relatively compact space. With 575 square inches of cooking space, you can get up to 24 burgers, five rib racks or four chickens and cook them all perfectly with the built-in meat probes. The included WiFire technology (I see what you did there) allows you to monitor your grill from anywhere to ensure everything cooks wonderfully.
