The Gear: No Smoking Section
Where there’s smoke, there’s frustration. No matter how many times you adjust your position around a traditional campfire, you won’t escape it. Even after the embers cool, the smell will cling to your clothing and hair for days.

But thankfully, using double-walled construction techniques and ventilation ports, modern fire pits have found a way to eliminate smoke altogether. And if you’re Pennsylvania-based Breeo, you also found a way to make these set-ups more portable. The company’s Y Series models weigh just 31 pounds and include integrated handles and collapsible legs. This makes them surprisingly easy to carry. A built-in heat shield ensures the fire pit can safely be used on a variety of surfaces, including wooden decks and patios. The Y Series is extra versatile, too, burning wood, charcoal and pellets.
Breeo also offers accessories that turn the fire pit into a portable grill for use at those impromptu backyard—or backcountry—barbecues. And when you’ve extinguished the flame, the unit stows neatly in the trunk of a car or an RV storage compartment. $495

BioLite FirePit+
Many things in one, this smokeless model doubles as a grill and comes with a built-in battery pack that powers a fan and recharges small devices. Compact and lightweight, the unit’s folding legs make it highly packable, but its size—27 inches wide—and mesh siding mean it gives off real heat. $249.95 bioliteenergy.com
