Why you should buy the Blackstone Duo 17

It’s yet another source of family division. Do you use the grill top or the griddle top to cook most of your outdoor foods? The grill is perfect for meats (and even some veg) and leaves behind that classic, crisscrossing of seared lines. Meanwhile, the griddle — smooth and whole — provides balanced heat and a reasonable surface to cook eggs, pancakes, and bacon. Choosing is difficult.

The Blackstone Duo 17 resolves the issue once and for all. With 219 square inches of grill space on the left and 267 square inches of griddle space on the right, everyone is going to be happy. It’s also going to be great for your outdoors event, wherever you may host it. With sturdy wheels and a long, easy to grip handle, you’ll be able to push and pull it across the sidewalk and even into the lawn. There’s also a nice shelf below the cooking area to carry needed supplies with you. As you cook, hang your utensils on the supplied hooks and push excess oil down the back of the griddle to the Blackstone read grease management system.

Once again, you can get your Blackstone Duo 17 for just $177 while this deal lasts. It’s a savings of $52 off of the usual $229. All you need to do is tap the button below. Then, while you’re in the shopping mood, consider these lingering 4th of July home and garden deals to get your whole yard and home booming into the summer.

Four Roses’ 2026 Limited Edition Small Batch is its oldest blend yet

Bottle, Whiskey, Glass

Four Roses has announced the release of its 2026 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon next month — and this year’s batch reaches back further than any prior release, blending bourbons aged 14 to 23 years.

The new blend from the Lawrenceburg-based distillery combines four hand-selected batches across three of the distillery’s ten recipes: 14-year-old OBSK, 14-year-old OESK, 15-year-old OESV, and a 23-year-old OESK. It’s non-chill filtered and bottled at barrel strength, 109.2 proof.

The Gold Room Is Peak Gilded Age New York Glamour

Altar, Architecture, Building

As a New England WASP, I probably have a hereditary fondness for grand old rooms. My Boston Brahmin forebears, after trading religious zeal for mercantile ambition, liked nothing better than sipping claret, playing whist, and smoking cigars in their clubhouses on Beacon Hill. In private quarters adorned with mahogany paneling, maritime paintings, and marble fireplaces, my flinty ancestors chortled deep into the night—safely removed from wives, papists, and, God forbid, Yale men.

Since moving to New York City, I’ve delighted in finding bars that feel like clubhouses frozen in the Gilded Age. The Campbell in Grand Central comes to mind. The Rose Club at the Plaza. Although much newer, the Polo Bar gussies up the blue-blood clubhouse aesthetic with fabulous fare, a trophy-laden wine cellar, and an ultra-exclusive mystique. But the apotheosis of robber-baron extravagance is The Gold Room at Lotte New York Palace.

Classic lagers to drink if you want your beer to “taste like beer”

Pilsner Urquell

When you think about the flavor of beer, what do you imagine? To me, it’s a crisp, refreshing, no-frills lager. The type of beer you’d just as likely crack open on an unseasonably warm spring day while grilling as you would after an afternoon of mowing the lawn on a hot, hazy, humid summer day. It’s light, refreshing, and tastes like beer.

That’s not to say that there isn’t a place for chocolate- and coffee-centric porters or boozy, barrel-aged stouts, or even tart, lip-smacking sour beers. There is a time and place for those and many other styles. It’s just that sometimes I want to crack open a beer and not taste an explosion of tropical fruit juices or get bashed in the head with malts or oaky wood. I want a beer that tastes the way I imagine it should. Specifically, I’m thinking about a balanced, thirst-quenching lager.
