Not are there only grills, but you also need grill accessories to make life well…
Just that little bit easier when playing with bare flames.
And that is where the manufacturers have excelled.
Let’s have a look at some.
Those Grill Accessories Choices
So let’s have a look at 5 of them, starting with.
Natural Lump Charcoal
Simply put lump charcoal is better than charcoal briquettes in every way.
That’s because it is made of pure carbon with no additives meanwhile charcoal briquettes are usually loaded with additives with natural lumps.
You can be sure you’re getting the purest taste and best performance out of your charcoal grill.
Charcoal Ash Tool
A charcoal ash tool is an absolute must for any charcoal grill.
It is great for stirring charcoal to get even heat while getting your grill preheated or moving charcoal around to create an indirect heat setup.
Being able to manipulate your heat source how you want it is essential.
And this tool will also come in handy when cleaning ash from the grill as well.
For quick and even charcoal lighting it’s hard to beat a chimney starter.
All you have to do is fill it with charcoal light some crumbled paper underneath and wait for the coals to start glowing.
From there just pour the lit coals from the chimney onto the unlit coals in your grill and you are good to go.
A chimney starter also means you won’t need lighter fluid leaving a nasty flavour on which you cook.
Which is always a plus…
Another great option for lighting coal is an
Electric Charcoal Starter
The loof lighter is a popular starter because it blows super hot air working to light the coals and stoke the fire all at once.
With the push of a button starters like this can also be handy if you are setting up for a low and slow cook.
Because you can pinpoint what coals you like which is nice for starting the perfect fire to smoke with.
Barbecue Thermometers
Whether you are trying to measure the temperature of your food or your grill’s ambient temperature thermometers are an essential tool for any griller.
A meat thermometer is a must-have because it is the only way to guarantee food is safe to eat.
And some models even come as wireless probes that send temperature readings to your smartphone.
Pizza Stones Charcoal Grills
Can double as a great place to cook pizza having a pizza stone lets you create the perfect environment for a crispy crust.
You will enjoy infusing pizza with wood-fired flavours.
And it is a great change of pace from the typical burgers and hot dogs if you want to get the most out of your charcoal pit.
You will want to have some grill racks and toppers around.
Something like a griddle can be a great addition for caramelizing smaller items that would fall through the grids.
Or cooking bacon to sizzling perfection grill baskets are also great to have around.
When it comes to getting a smoky flavour on something like roasted veggies.
Grill Lights
You should never have to stop grilling just because it is dark outside.
Most of my favourite cookouts have lasted well into the evening.
These lights come in different styles.
From ones that clip onto your grill handle to a light that’s integrated into your spatula.
You will be glad to have a clear view of what you grill at night.
Grilling Tools
You can not forget about the basics of a solid set of.
Grill tools are something you should always have around a long pair of grill tongs is always a must.
It will save your hands from getting too close to the heat when grilling.
And do not forget about a
The flavour possibilities are endless when you start making homemade basting sauces.
After you finish cooking all that tasty food you’ll need a
Grill Brush
If you get in the habit of making a few passes with a brush after every cook your grill will always be ready for the next cook that uses it.
Well… That is the lineup of grill accessories I have for you for now.
Just remember that these grill accessories are not only there to make your grilling safer.
They are also there to keep your hands away from the food that is smoking hot.
