Summer is just around the corner, which means the scent of charcoal smokin' and meat searing will be coming to an outdoor space near you. We love grilling season, but we're starting to get a little bored of our basic black Weber.

We dug around the awesomeness that is the Web to find something more interesting to sizzle our flanks. Prepare to be surprised and inspired by these bizarre BBQ units, proving that nothing -- neither a toilet nor a car trunk -- can confound a carnivore's need to grill. Be sure to send us any info if you know of any other outrageous grills we missed.

Bizarre Grills to Cook Your Meat

    Porshe Grill
    Lee Lawless, of St. Louis, grills hot dogs and hamburgers in the rear of a 1975 Porsche in St. Louis, Saturday, May 19, 2007. The Porsche was converted into a barbeque grill and smoker by its owner, Doug Burris. Burris was taking part in an antique charity auto show in support of diabetes. The front of the car is the firebox for a smoker that sits where the drivers seat would be located.

    Mike's Hard Lemonade Grill
    Whoever had the dignity to drink this many Mike's Hard Lemonades and accrue the points to earn this grill must certainly have the balls to proudly cook dinner on it. Our stomach ulcers are moaning in pain at the thought.
