Spring might have just arrived, but what most of us look forward to is the summer. After all, who wouldn’t want longer days and more sunlight to bathe in, while children absolutely love the long break for them to roll around the hills stay up to pace with their computer games. As with sunbathing, holding a BBQ cookout is synonymous with summer activities, which is why those of you who do not yet have a grill ought to seriously consider the Memphis Barbecue. What’s the reason behind this, you ask? Aren’t all BBQ grills the same? Apparently not as the Memphis proves, boasting MP3 playback capability via a hidden speaker located at the cooker’s front panel.

You can now grill your burgers and beef patties while grooving to yor favorite tunes. It really helps reduce lugging around a boombox outdoors with this innovative solution, and the fact that it plays MP3 via a connector located behind means you will be able to carry more music on a single device compared to a few boxes carrying CDs. My main concern would be the grease and oil that splatter all over during an intensive grilling session - after all, nobody would like to have some ketchup and mayo smeared all over their iPod, would they? It also makes me wonder whether the MP3 player is removed far away from the heat source during grilling, as you wouldn’t want your flash memory and hard drive to start melting just as your appetite is whipped up.

The Memphis Barbecue MP3 grill can be yours for just below ￡230, which leans a little toward the pricey side, but when it comes to novelty, price doesn’t really matter. What matters is you rocking to some rolling summer tunes while preparing a feast fit for a king.
