Show your patriotism with every flip of the burger with the Star Spangled Spatula. Designed to look like the stars and stripes — the spatula is stainless steel with American Walnut handle, and it’s hand fabricated by Lamson and Goodnow. Perfect for your 4th of July BBQ, or Flag Day. We hear Flag Day can get nuts.

When you’re done pillaging your supermarket’s meat section, and would then like to cook up your bounty — The Pirate Treasure Chest BBQ is here to help.
Brought to us by Etsy member firesculptureart, the fully-functional grill was created to look like an antique wooden treasure chest. It comes complete with a three burner grill chamber, and single burner “Hot slather” simmerin’ oven. So, go ahead and invite your mateys over for a little BBBQ. The extra ‘B’ is for booty.

If you respond favorably to terms such as “meat tornado,” and consider fish a vegetable, then Ron F***ing Swanson BBQ Sauce is here to help. Inspired by everyone’s favorite meat-eating curmudgeon from Parks and Recreation, the sauce is thick and bold — just like Ron’s mustache.

It’s inevitable that your kids will eventually be exposed to a spiked watermelon. And if you don’t teach them early, their first experience with one is going to be at some back alley BBQ, or they’ll fall in with the wrong picnic crowd. Fortunately, Felicia Haywood of Fluffy Flowers created the Plush Spiked Watermelon, as a cute learning tool.
So if your kids are going to learn how to properly inject a watermelon with vodka — they might as well do it as adorably as possible, and under your supervision.
If you prefer to do your grilling sans serif, there’s The Sanswich Apron. Designed by artist David Schwen, you can use one to protect your best summer wear, and show your love for the most basic of fonts.
And, if you need one to help remember how to construct a burger, simply wear it upside down.
