What Accessories Do You Need for a Smoker? Here’s the Must Have Kits
Are you looking to accessorise your smoker and wondering just which BBQ smoker accessories to purchase?
Don’t dream of quality and delicious BBQ without top-quality BBQ Smoker accessories. BBQ accessories are designed to make your life easier, and in some cases safer. You might be asking just what accessories do you need for a smoker? Keep reading to find out more about the smoker accessories kit must have.
- 1. An Accurate Thermometer
An accurate thermometer is imperative for a perfect BBQ. You can’t estimate temperatures when cooking. Meat needs particular temperatures to be cooked well. You don’t want to disappoint your guests with undercooked meals do you? Check out our range of trusted, high-quality, cost-effective thermometer options.
- 2. BBQ Gloves
When barbecuing, you’re literally playing with fire. Play on but make sure that your hands are safe. BBQs can get quite hot, exceeding 600°C at times. You don’t want to end up with nasty burns and bruises. We recommend our trusted BBQ heat resistant gloves.
Not only will gloves keep your hands safe from extremely hot temperatures but they’ll also keep your hands clean. Gloves also come in handy when you’re handling the chimney starter.
- 3. Smoker Cover
If your smoker is outside, you’ll certainly want a smoker cover to keep dust and debris away from the cooking surface. A smoker cover also reduces the rate at which the BBQ rusts if it’s not made of stainless steel. Browse through our collection of reliable smoker covers to find one that suits your BBQ.
Our advice and recommendation is to purchase smoker covers manufactured by the same brand that manufactured your BBQ. So for example, if you have a Webber BBQ, you should opt for a Webber smoker cover. If you can’t find a smoker cover by the company that manufactured your BBQ, it’s not the end of the world. You can still opt for a third-party smoker cover.
- 4. A Chimney Fire-Starter
If you have a charcoal BBQ then you absolutely must have a charcoal chimney starter. Otherwise how else do you intend on igniting your lumps of charcoal? Starters come in a variety of sizes with the smallest being about 12 inches tall and the tallest standing at about 18 inches. If you want to avoid unnecessary accidents, a charcoal chimney starter is non-negotiable.
- 5. Carving Kit
When you’re handling so much meat, there’s no way your ordinary kitchen knives will be up to the task. You just have to get yourself a carving kit. We highly recommend the Bradley Carving Kit which comes with a complementary Dig Thermometer. You can’t go wrong with such a high-profile carving kit that features a butcher knife, boning knife, carving fork and two ceramic sharpeners to keep your knives on point.
