Good Morning! 

Camp Chef has a new griddle coming out later this month that has new styling and features from their previous griddles. The most notable is it has a grease trough over the grease management system. That should make it easier to dispose of grease while cooking.

UK pizza oven company DeliVita has changed ownership. They were acquired by a holding company called Gastronomy Plus. DeliVita compliments the other brands in their portfolio which includes a Japanese-style grill company and a charcoal oven brand.

Solo Stove wants a larger share of the backyard and they're releasing some interesting products to do it. This week they released Movie Night bundles which include a outdoor projector screen, reclining lounge chairs, and their popcorn maker they released recently.

Permasteel has manufactured grills under the Kenmore brand since 2011. They released a new Kenmore grill, which is a retro styled two-burner portable grill. It won a Retailer's Choice award earlier this year at the National Hardware Show.

Lynx Grills released the Sedona L601 this week, which comes in both freestanding and built-in variants. There's no article on it because it appears to be a minor refresh from the L600. I can spot two grill lights, up from one, and what appears to be a slight change to the side shelves. I believe the gaps in the hood have been welded to make cleaning easier too.

Finally, Clorox reported earnings and noted that they had a sales increase in their grilling business (Kingsford). This is a change from last year when had some challenges with decreased demand from price increases.
