With the crap weather that's happening right now in my neck of the woods, it's nice to daydream about days when it's warm enough to hit the beach. Typically, I don't like beaches because they're usually all about sitting there doing nothing, but the dude behind The Food in My Beard has a great burger hack that turns the sand itself into a kettle grill of sorts—provided you bring your own grate (and patties and buns). Just find a couple pieces of driftwood and dig a big ol' hole in the sand: "Throw the coals in the hole. The hole needs to be big enough to let air get to the coals, so you need to find large driftwood to hold the grill."
Just be sure to check the beach regulations and outdoor-cooking statutes wherever it is you might want to try this. I'm sure some places are a little more itchy than others with environmental regs.
