Arguinzoniz makes his own charcoal from local hardwoods. He has also invented a custom grill with a pulley system that allows precise control of oxygen intake, levered grill surfaces that can be kept meticulously clean for a light smoke, and a mesh-bottomed pan that grills such refined foods as caviar and the tiniest baby squid. Ordinary grilled flavor comes mainly from soot, but here exceptional-quality ingredients...

"It will help the athlete break his speed barrier," St.-Hilaire says. "As fast as he's humanly capable of running, we need to find a way to break that barrier." In other words, mind...
