Though we're trying to zero in on apps that are perfect for the barbeque, you'll likely find a lot of apps here that are good for day-to-day cooking too. Getting ideas for what to make, building up shopping lists, and planning out meal schedules aren't uncommon features in these apps.

Pit Pal
PitPal is built to help those at the grill consistently produce competition-grade ribs and other delicious meatstuffs. You can log every meticulous detail of your cook, and save the information for later comparison. If you're really serious, Pit Pal can connect wirelessly to certain accessories that monitor the temperature of your smoker or grill. You can then record and export that data, and get notifications based on real temperature results.
