Hmmm....what if the grill is a Weber? Would that handle the heat better? ;)

An alternative is to remove the disks (platters), and have a barbecue.  I'm
assuming that  if  you were to melt the platters into a small pile of slag,
that even the most enterprising of data-recovery specialists would have
difficulties.  If a barbecue doesn't seem hot enough there are various
additives you could add to increase the heat.  The additives I'm thinking of
will certainly spoil your franks, some may even lead to the barbecue being
included in the pile of slag.  Of course, there's probably information
encoded in the barbecue that would end up being recovered.
