Real Life Transformer, The X-Grill

You might be able to break 60 miles per hour, but this truck does over 1000 burgers per hour.

Meet the X-Grill, the creation of Ken Foster of Breakaway Barbecue Grills and Gary Webb of Gary’s Truck Equipment in Massachusetts.

They combined forces and spent $40,000 to turn a 1987 Ford truck into a tanker that transforms with a push of a button into a mobile grilling station with 4 stoves and a 42-inch grill.

The X-Grill is powered by 3208 Cat Diesel with 600 ft-lbs of torque. The two rent out the truck for events and it’s booked almost every weekend.

With a capacity of 1,000 burger an hour and 1,750 hot dogs per hour, this is the ultimate grilling machine.
