MEAT YOUR GRILL’S NEW BEST FRIEND

Grill Season  has officially started my friends. With Memorial Day a few weeks behind us, and July 4th just two and a half weeks away – now is the time to step up your grill game, and get yourself The Pops Q Tool.

The website says that the Pops Q Tool is pretty much the most versatile, bad-ass, barbecue accessory you’ll ever known – so let’s find out why.

Recommended Videos

Well, first off – the Pops Q Tool comes in two sizes – 15′ and 18′ – this all in one barbecue multitasking gadget can handle and backyard situation. Buying one of these means eliminating the clutter of tools you’ve had rusting over since last summer.

It’s really the Swiss Army Knife of BBQ tools – did we mention this item is entirely made in the United States of America? Perfect for Independence Day….

Tool 1 – The Spatula. 

The Spatula is the workhorse of the Pops Q Tool. Made from 304 Stainless Steel for superior strength and rust resistance and measuring 3.25” tall by 3.5” wide, this spatula excels at handling everything you cook, from large burgers to slender fish fillets. Stone ground 45° front section increases ease of use.

Tool 2 – The Fork

The four pronged fork is designed to maximize control over food on the grill by itself and when paired with the spatula. It’s extremely useful to stabilize food on the grill for cutting or positioning. The angled tips also work well for roasting marshmallows, and fending off wild creatures who wander into camp.

Tool 3 – The Mega-Tongs

This is THE FEATURE that sets the Pops Q Tool apart from every other BBQ tool in the world: The fork slides into the spatula and creates the ultimate Mega-Tong. The large tongs provide full versatility at the grill, for flipping, adjusting and then serving anything you can grill – from Flank Steak to Flaky Lettuce to Shish Kabobs and Shashimi!

Tool 4 – The Scraper

The V Design grill scraper on the bottom of the Knife works equally well on small hibachi or large Forest Service grate – because a clean grill means a better tasting meal.

Tool 5 – The Knife

The brand starts by laser cutting the initial serrations into the 304 Stainless Steel, then stone grinding both sides to get the correct cutting angle. The result is a serrated knife that easily cuts meats, veggies, and bread on the grill. It’s both a time saving feature, and a little reward maker for the grill master of the day – for who doesn’t love a little “sample” off the end when grilling?

Tool 6 – The Bottle Opener

Now this feature reminds us of a pair of sandals we once wrote about…

Grilling and cold beverages go hand in hand. Some of us like beer, others like bottled soda, but we all agree that easily opening those bottles without having to go back inside for a bottle opener is better. Best way to use the opener is to hold the spatula towards the sky, it works upside down as well but it requires more effort.

The best part about this superhero-style grilling gadget extravaganza? You can engrave both handles. Yup, you can personalize these – so if you’re still thinking about what to get Pop for Father’s Day….and you don’t mind your gift arriving a few days late – then we think we may have found a winner.

5 essential bourbons to start your whiskey collection
The best bottles of bourbon to start your collection
Whiskey in a glass

Sure, the bourbon whiskey world is full of overly expensive bourbons. But there’s another side to the whiskey-drenched coin. If you’re a beginner bourbon drinker looking to stock up your home bar, but you’re not ready to fork over the equivalent of a month’s rent to do it, you’re in luck. There are countless bourbon whiskeys that fit the criteria of value-to-quality. Don’t fork over a hundred or two hundred dollars. These value bottles are the types of bourbons you need to start your collection.

You probably know that to be called a bourbon, the whiskey must follow a few rules and regulations. In my two decades of writing about alcohol, I’ve learned about these unflinching rules for America’s “native spirit.” The most important rule is that it must be made with a mash bill of at least 51% corn (although many are much higher). While there are a few rules I won’t get into today, I will mention the second most important rule.

How a winemaker makes vermouth: Building a new American tradition
Making a grape-based spirit with a sense of place
Vemouth in glasses

Lately, we've seen the rise of lesser-known liqueurs in bar menus and indigenous grape varieties make bigger splashes on wine lists. Agave spirits and their hybrids continue to surge while the era of the high-octane IPA might be coming to an end. Vermouth, or a highly aromatic style of fortified wine, might be the next rising star in the American beverage landscape.

Vermouth, of course, is quite old. The familiar modern incarnation we know so well was first born in the late 18th century in Italy. Since then, it's become especially big in Europe, while also finding a solid footing in American mixology. Given a growing number of domestic makers — not to mention the revival of more moderate cocktails and drinks in general — vermouth seems poised for a breakout here in the States.
