Abstract: A grilling system comprises a heat conductive grilling base having a bottom end and an open top end. The base defines a cavity that extends to the open top end. A grill member has an open bottom end, an open top end, and a conduit passing from the bottom end to the top end. The grill member is configured to be coupled to the grilling base so as to extend vertically upward from the top end of the base to permit a fowl to be inserted over the grill member and rest on the base while also permitting smoke or steam rising from the cavity to pass through the grill member to flavor the fowl.

Abstract: A grilling system comprises a grill base that is adapted to be heated. The grill base has a top end, a bottom end, and an open interior that is adapted to hold a heatable substance that produces smoke or liquid vapors when heated. A manifold is coupled to the grill base so as to be positioned above the heatable substance. A grill member is positioned above the manifold. The grill member comprises at least one grill surface having a plurality of holes. The grill surface is configured to receive a grillable substance, whereby smoke or liquid vapors rising from the grill base pass through the manifold and then through the holes in the grill surface.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a beverage container comprises a vessel having an interior that is adapted to hold a beverage. The vessel has a closed bottom end and an open top end. The bottom defines a cavity that is fluidly filled from the interior of the vessel. A cooling element is configured to fit within the cavity. A base comprises a bottom member and a stem extending vertically upward from the bottom member. The base includes a connector that is configured to be coupled to the bottom end of the vessel and to enclose the cooling element within the cavity.
