Easy Outdoor Cooking

 

When it comes to cooking outdoors, who doesn’t love the fire-and-smoke approach to a traditional barbecue grill and pit smoker, or get a thrill out of dropping a bird into sizzling hot oil in a turkey fryer? But face it, there are days when you’d rather spend the time doing something more productive than fussing with the fire – and now you can with the Orion Cooker.

 

The Orion Cooker ($149) is a smoker, charcoal-fired convection oven and steamer rolled into a beautifully rendered stainless-steel package that’s lovely to behold and simple to use. Imagine placing that turkey in the cooking chamber, lighting the charcoal (located outside the chamber) and returning in a couple of hours, or less, to a perfectly cooked bird. Want a little smoky flavor? Just add wood chips inside the cooking chamber along with the bird. Worried about drying out that precious breast meat? Just add your favorite basting solution to the drip pan. With the Orion, anyone can create tender smoked meats – no experience necessary.
