The arrival of the good weather and the popular festivals calls for friends, beer and a good barbecue to go with it.
But whether celebrating parties and festivals or a simple barbecue at home, it’s essential to have the right grilling utensils. Discover our range of barbecue accessories and find out in this article which accessories will make your grilling easier and become a true BBQ Master.
Starters and Smokers
For some, it may be easy, but for others, the worst moment when it comes to making a barbecue is lighting the fire. If you’re one of these people, a charcoal starter is ideal to avoid the mishaps of this important step.
The charcoal starter is an accessory that speeds up the process of heating the charcoal, generating flames. To do this, simply add paper or charcoal and in about 15 minutes the embers are ready. Advantages: safety, practicality and speed.
For fans of smoked meat or vegetables, the smoke boxes are just what you need! These boxes allow you to smoke your food in a convenient way. To do this, simply add the wood chips inside (Jack Daniels Whiskey flavoured wood, apple flavoured wood, hickory wood, mesquite wood and powder). As it heats up, the smoke will release and infuse your meat or vegetables with distinct aromas and flavours.
ToolSets and Cutlery
Cutlery and utensils are those accessories that, without them, you will find it very difficult to barbecue. Each one fulfils an essential task for the success of your barbecue.
The knife is your greatest ally. Having a sharp piece with a good cut is essential and will make your work much easier. We advise you to invest in a complete kit with a boning knife, a cutting knife, a serving knife, a saw and scissors.
The large, two-pronged fork is a must in your barbecue kit. It’s the essential utensil to hold the meat when cutting, to reach the most distant parts of the barbecue, avoiding possible accidents, and support when serving.
The spatula is a good ally for lovers of a good hamburger. Using it prevents the meat from splitting, burning or losing its tasty juice.
A brush, preferably made of silicone, is the ideal tool for spreading the sauce over the meat on the grill.
The tongs are a very useful barbecue tool, especially if you like to prepare meat on the grill. In addition to better control, it’s easier to handle the meat. There’s also the benefit of preserving the food, keeping it juicy.
Gloves and Aprons
It seems obvious, but the most overlooked accessories are the apron and gloves.
These are without a doubt your best friends at barbecue time because besides protecting your clothes and skin from heat (avoiding burns and similar problems when grilling) they will help you use your barbecue in a professional and safe way.
Skewers, Trays and Others
Skewers, supports, baskets, grids, trays, baskets and boards are accessories that will undoubtedly make your grilling easier.
Skewers and supports are ideal for grilling whole pieces (such as: chicken, ribs, etc.) or small pieces (such as: chicken wings, shrimp, bacon, etc.). Believe, if you don't invest in this type of accessory, grilling these foods will be very difficult!
Whether your barbecue is coal, gas, electric or hybrid, the grill is an essential accessory. Because it’s with it that you can grill your chosen food.
The trays and baskets are ideal for roasting a wide variety of foods. Simply place them on the grill and leave them to cook. Their perforated surface allows the heat to spread evenly and prevents small foods from falling off the grill during cooking.
For a successful barbecue, hygienic food handling has to be done on a cutting board. So don't hesitate to invest in one for your barbecue.
Griddles, Stones and Shapes
Cast iron griddles are ideal for grilling delicate food that would otherwise be impossible to do on the grill bars. The cast iron provides even heat retention and distribution, which will result in well cooked, delicious and consistent food. With these, you can cook anything from omelettes, pancakes, bacon, pizza, eggs and much more.
The stones allow you to smoke, cook and bake your food. They help prevent overcooking by preventing the direct heat of the flames from reaching the food, ensuring a particularly smooth result.
The moulds, especially the hamburger moulds, allow you to make tasty homemade hamburgers. Simple and practical to use, just put the meat in the lower part and press until you get the desired shape.
Thermometers
The use of a thermometer is very common and important in many areas, so in cooking, it cannot be put aside either. Knowing the temperature value of your meat is essential to understand if it’s cooked to perfection. Never forget that the secret to grilling meat to perfection is the internal temperature!
