SUMR HITS 5000, the DJ BBQ
DJ BBQ 5000 is a revolutionary grilling product that provides the user with a truly unique cooking experience. By combining the love for barbecuing and backyard beats, the user can create their own song as they grill up their favorite summer foods. In partnership with McCormick, 8 sauces and spices were selected to represent the brand for Summer 2019.
The launch event saw DJ Jazzy Jeff and Chef Myron Mixon 'play' some sweet summer tunes on the BBQ. Engadget were there to try it out.
This project was produced for Grey NYC by Current Studios.
