5 Best Gas Grill Accessories You Should Own

If you are getting ready for barbecue season, but are still unsure as to what tools to use, then don’t worry for I have listed below some of the essentials of barbecue.

These tools are easy and more comfortable to use, and they are really worth paying for. Consider them and just decide on what you really feel you need.

A gas grill often comes with a fold-down side table or an extra burner to keep food warm while the rest is cooking. An enclosed grill frame will have storage space for cooking utensils or serving dishes. Other accessories, which can be added for an extra cost, are a rotisserie and a smoker box.

Some gas grills include a cover and some do not but it is a must if you leave your grill out in the element. To protect your grill from rust and other damages make sure to purchase an optional protective cover if it is not already included.

Grill accessories range from basic to specialized.

  • Grilling brush, tongs, spatula and fork are must haves.
  • Cooking baskets and skewers make cooking smaller foods more efficient.
  • Rotisseries are available to fit some grills.
  • Invest in a quality meat thermometer if you plan on cooking poultry or large cuts of meat.
  • A grilling light also helps you make sure food is not over-or undercooked.
  • An absorbent grill pad is a nice addition to prevent grease from staining patios.
  • A lined grill cover is also a good investment to help extend the life of your grill.

Grill Accessories What To Look For

Some gas grills are very well equipped with all the tools you need to BBQ all sorts of food. Some are just short on cooking tools. But all gas grills need accessories to help with maintenance. Accessories are also used to help with cooking a range of foods like whole chicken, mushrooms, marshmallows and a whole lot of other things.

Barbecue Fork

Contrary to what many people believe, the barbecue fork is not only for stabbing and turning the meat. You can use this barbecue equipment also for testing if the food you grilled is done. You can also use it to get right under some food that stuck to the grill.

Barbecue Tongs

Barbecue or grilling tongs also play a great role in your barbecue session. This barbecue equipment can actually be used for flipping burgers, sausages, steaks, or for moving coals, grates and other things that can’t be eaten. For an ultimate barbecue trip, make sure to have a pair of it.

Grilling Spatula

The grilling spatula is particularly ideal for lifting delicate foods that would break apart if the tongs are used. So if in case you are grilling something that you think would easily chunk, then use this barbeque equipment for handling that food. Consider grilling spatula with a bent handle and a wide blade for ease of use.

Brushes

When considering a barbecue, it is best to have more than one brush. Take one and use it for oiling the cooking surfaces of your barbecue grill. Get another one and use it as a basting brush. However, if you are grilling and basting a variety of foods, it’s a good idea to have a different brush for each baste. Why? Some barbecue flavors are difficult to wash out from the brushes. So consider one or more of this barbecue equipment.

Grill Rocks, Stones and Plates

The familiar flavor produced by charcoal grilling comes from the juices of food dripping onto the hot charcoal. Gas grills use several materials to produce the same effect:

  • Lava rock heats quickly and disperses the heat to the interior of the grill. Lava is porous and allows grease to accumulate, lessening its efficiency and increasing flare-ups. Replace lava rock yearly, or turn it over to expose a fresh surface.
  • Pumice stone operates like lava but collects less residue.
  • Ceramic briquettes stay clean in the same manner as a self-cleaning oven—the residue is baked off. Ceramic is more expensive than rock but lasts much longer.
  • Heat plates or bars are made of metal and allow heat to rise. The dripping juices dissipate when they fall on the hot metal.

Oven Mittens

Mittens are very important for every cooking. So when considering a barbecue, it is wise to use these barbeque tools for removing and turning kebabs from the grill. You can also use this tool for picking up foods that are being cooked in foil parcels. What’s more, oven mittens can be utilized for handling hot metal accessories like the drip pans.

There are other tools you can use for your barbecue events. It is important, however, to make sure that the forks, spatulas, tongs, and brushes you are using are long-handled to avoid direct contact with flames.

For an enjoyable grilling season make sure you have all the right tools and equipment and it will be great fun!
