Fire & Flavor HERO Portable Charcoal Grilling System
Some days I feel like a hero, and other days I feel like a HERO. I'm talking fat stacked sandwiches and BBQ brats cooked on a portable charcoal grilling system here, of course. Not me, like, helping my mama with her flooded basement in a small heroic kind of way, and definitely not me saving a puppy from a coyote in a BIG HEROIC kind of way.
If you're my kind of hero, maybe you need a hero and a HERO too. The latter, Fire & Flavor's HERO, packs a grill large enough to feed a hungry dude like myself, plus my normal-appetited wife, into a 15" x 11.5" briefcase that weighs less than 10 pounds.
The HERO grill is compact and neat enough to bring along for cookouts at picnics and tailgates and on beaches and boats, plus works at home for people living in urban areas or with small outdoor spaces. It uses a Fire & Flavor quick-light charcoal pod to grill for up to 60 minutes at 400 degrees F. Pods are single-use, but plant-based, low VOC, and biodegradable.
The 112-square-inch HERO grill grate sits atop a base with fold-out legs. Charcoal pods nest in an insulating Lavalite lava stone set in a cardboard tray made from post-consumer recycled materials. The grill's ceramic-coated grate is nonstick and dishwasher-safe.
