(Today's big on "What the..." posts, it seems)
Bug was browsing around various web sites for stock pots and found this monstrosity at Sam's Club.

I shudder to think what the retail price is for this monster if Sam's Club's members' price is nearly $7,000.
Anyway, a grill that needs wiring hookups for brake lights and whatnot is just WAY overdoing it.
