As we head into prime grilling season, the backyard isn’t just a place for burgers and hot dogs anymore—it’s the heart of innovation for outdoor cooking. This year’s trends blend smart tech, high-performance gear, and cleverly designed tools to make every cookout easier, more precise, more fun, and MOST important more flavorful. Whether you’re a seasoned pitmaster or just getting your grill game going, here are some hot trends and must-have tools that are heating things up in 2025.
Wireless Precision: The ThermoWorks RFX Wireless Thermometer
One of the most exciting new releases this season is the ThermoWorks RFX Wireless Thermometer. Built for serious heat and serious convenience, this thermometer can handle temps up to 1000 degrees Fahrenheit, making it perfect for searing steaks, deep fried chicken in oil, or managing a roaring fire in your smoker or kamado grill.
Its wireless capabilities allow for real-time temp monitoring right from your smartphone, keeping you in control without hovering over the grill. Whether you're reverse-searing a ribeye or smoking a brisket low and slow, the RFX gives you confidence your food is spot-on every time.
Why it’s trending: Precision is king. More grillers are demanding pro-level accuracy with the freedom to multitask—this delivers both.
Smarter Smoking: Big Green Egg Genius WiFi Controller
Smart tech isn't just for your home—now it's in your smoker too. The Egg Genius by Big Green Egg is a WiFi-enabled blower fan controller that keeps your grill at the perfect temperature for hours on end. Just set your desired temp, and Egg Genius does the rest, making micro-adjustments to airflow to ensure consistency.
You can monitor and control everything from your phone, including internal meat temps, ambient grill temps, and cooking duration. It’s a game-changer for long, low-and-slow cooks like pork shoulder, ribs, or brisket.
Why it’s trending: Precision and convenience meet in one smart device, giving even casual users the tools to master advanced smoking.
American-Ingenuity: Drip EZ Resting Blanket & Collapsible Prepping Tubs
