"May 20, 2006 — With Memorial Day weekend approaching, and in the middle of national barbecue month, some Americans might want to think about upgrading to some of the season's hottest new grills.
Grill ownership has increased 10 percent since 2003, according to the Hearth, Patio and Barbecue Association. Eight out of ten households own an outdoor barbecue grill or smoker, 60 percent of Americans grill year-round and nearly half grill during winter months.
According to the numbers from the Hearth, Patio and Barbecue Association, 65 percent of men say they get "a lot" of pleasure from grilling, compared to about half of all women.
Matt Bean, senior editor of "Men's Health Magazine," showed "Good Morning America Weekend Edition" some of the biggest and baddest new grills on the market.
Best dream grill: Cal spas grill, $27,000
This grill has everything, from built-in televisions, to a beer tap, to a beverage refrigerator. It's the ultimate outdoor entertaining island and is completely customized. The entertainment system is complete with two 17-inch flat-screen TVs, a DVD player, and a CD stereo system with surround-sound marine-grade speakers. There is an optional third TV and iPod docking station which comes in place of DVD and CD stereo system. "
