Exhaust Burger - Mobile Hamburger Barbacue
Well, if you’re idea of the perfect death is croaking while chomping on a nice, juicy hamburger, have we got the tool for you: The Mobile Exhaust Barbacue.
I’m going to assume (hope? pray?) that’s a prank, but I bet you there’s some folks that would like one, if they could figure out how to turn on their Commodore 64 and get their tape deck hooked up to the phone line (without electricuting themselves).
Seems to me that there was an episode of Seinfeld where Kramer used the engine as a grill–which sounds at least somewhat healthier, but I couldn’t find any information on it. In the meantime, I did find this engine gril, which looks damn decent.

If you look at the second photo, the exhaust doe not go through the burger, but around it. The design merely uses the heat of the gases to heat up the grill. Which is hardly a new idea. Boy Scout books from decades ago taught how to wrap up meals in tinfoil and strap it to the side of the pipe. You can also boy cookers that strap to your snowmobile ehaust.

Yes, but that would have required us to actually look at the second picture.
