Grills usually do one thing: cook meat.
Two if you count veg.
Grills do this wherever there are good cooks and hungry yaps.
In Chicago, this is everywhere.
Hence, we give you a grill that cooks meat and goes the extra mile:
Introducing the GoBQ — the seriously portable grill in a bag — now up for preorder.
Basically, two Chicagoans have created a silicone-coated fiberglass fabric grill that withstands high temps and flare-ups and folds up into a convenient carryall.
In transport, it resembles a smooth duffel bag you can throw over your shoulder. Weighs an incredible eight pounds.
Unlatch the bag and out comes the hardware: the grill body, chain-ring charcoal basket and nickel-plated metal grate that unrolls for 196 square inches of cooking surface.
That’s bigger than your Smokey Joe. Plus: it’s much more portable. Embarrassingly so.
The rub: this is an IndieGoGo campaign.
The marinade: it’s well on its way to success.
Plus: unequivocal respect from your fellow grillers come the August delivery.
Just make sure you bring the meat.
