That thing got a Hemi in it?

Apparently, everything is better when it has a Hemi in it. Chrysler is sponsoring a contest, "What Can You HEMI?" (Let me weigh in right now -- I am horrified that someone has decided that HEMI can be a verb.) To kick off the contest, Chrysler created a HEMI-Grille to show what can be done.

"The oversized barbeque is finished in stainless and diamond plate. The alternator and battery of the V8 is up front which drives an electric motor to warm powerful heating elements. There is enough power and space to cook up 240 hot dogs in less than three minutes."

Wonder if Takeru Kobayashi has one of these on order?

P.S. Thanks to Lex for the tip.

I hate to admit this Mel, but I saw that grill at a car show in Carlisle, Pa., in early July. My husband and I couldn't quite figure out how a Hemi engine could fuel a grill, so thanks for the explainer. I think I'll just stick to my George Foreman, thank you very much!
