Basting Brush that are nice to use and are silicone they are great for spreading sauces and Mirandes on to meats and vegetables.
Large Spatula is an essential for flipping anything on the grill including burgers, mushrooms and potatoes.
Large and Long Tongs should have a long handle to making flipping and turning easier.
Wire Brush for Cleaning your Grill should be sturdy and strong. A wire grill brush is used to clean the grill between use.
Barbecue Mitts should be heat resistance and long enough to protect hands and lower parts of the arms.
Digital Thermometer is nice to have to check for the internal temperature of your grilled meats. There are many meat thermomotors to choose from but, I love a digital one for the most accurate in reading temperature.
Skewers for making kababs can be either metal or wood. I prefer using metal for grilling because it eliminates the soaking plus, I can reuse. I use skewers to string meat and veggies for a perfect dinner.
