Every aspiring grill king knows how important a good set of barbecue tools is to the grilling experience. Of course you'll need the basics, including tongs, a fork, and a spatula, if you hope to cook anything on the grill. Great grilling and gourmet food from the barbecue requires much more than these basics. Although it's almost impossible to cook on a barbecue without a basic grill tool set, there are also more unusual barbecue accessories that can take grilling to the next level, spicing up your next barbecue event and helping you to create distinctive grilled meals.
1. Racks, baskets, and rotisseries. While many traditional barbecue foods can be placed directly on the barbecue grill, others are not well suited to this method of cooking. Shrimp can fall through the gaps, while fish may get stuck to the bars on the grill. For these foods, you'll need a good selection of baskets, racks, and rotisseries. With barbecue accessories designed for specific types of food, you'll be able to effortlessly grill a rack of ribs, a whole chicken, a pizza, or a handful of cherry tomatoes. A grilling enthusiast should always have the right tools on hand to grill any type of food.
2. Barbecue smoker box. If you've ever wished that your propane barbecue gave your food the same smoky taste that you get using a wood fired barbecue, then a smoker box is for you. This box uses wood chips to give your food a deliciously smoky flavor no matter what type of grill you're using.
3. Steak branding irons. This unique tool adds a distinctive touch to grilled steaks. In the shape of your favorite sports team's logo, the logo of a military branch, or even your initials, a steak branding iron shows your love of meat and your personal style. There's no better way to create a lasting impression at your next barbecue event.
4. The right gloves. Barbecuing gloves should be both flame-retardant and heat-resistant. The right gloves will make grilling a lot more fun. If you wouldn't reach into a hot oven without oven mitts, why reach onto a hot grill without protection for your hands?
Grilling delicious meats and vegetables requires any backyard chef to start with the right tools. In addition to a set of essential grill tools, consider these unique accessories to make your next grilled meal an exciting gourmet event. - 29958
