For the grill master of the family, Ed and Hamp have designed a range of compact, easy-to-use Yakatori charcoal grills that heat up fast and stay hot for hours (except the handles, which stay comfortably cool). Sleek and modern, these grills are hip enough for backyard dinner parties and sturdy enough for football tailgates and beach parties. There’s even a folding go-anywhere notebook grill that’s not much bigger than a laptop.

When temps start to get chilly, you and your guests can stay warm with a patio heater. Table top propane or halogen heaters are perfect for an intimate gathering. When the crowd rolls in, one of the commercial-grade heaters (like you see at restaurants) will keep the chilly air at bay. So don’t hunker down when the cold arrives, live it up.
