There are quite a few different accessories that you can buy for your BBQ. They vary in price, and some will be more useful for you than others. - Roasting Rack: A deep wire rack that is designed to hold pieces of roasting meat. The rack elevates the meat from the plate so that the meat is cooked evenly and browns nicely.
- Rotisserie: A long metal rod that is battery operated. You place the rod through the meat and then turn on the rotisserie. I recommend putting a basin underneath the meat to catch the fat from the meat as it falls
- Disposable baking dish: These are great if you don't want to wash up, or if you have a large amount of food to cook on your BBQ. Convenient. Usually made from thick aluminium foil.
- Side burner: A lot of BBQs have these now in addition to the plates. A side burner is ideal for cooking a stir fry or anything that you can cook in a wok.
- Warming rack: These are wire racks that you use to keep food warm. You can also use them to slow cook food through indirect heat. eg. vegetables
- Smoke box: Made from cast iron, these are boxes with ventilation holes in them. You will the box with smoking chips to add flavour to your cooking
- Wire cleaning brush: Used to clean your BBQ plate. You can use a paint scraper as an alternative
- Firestarters: If you are using a wood barbecue firestarters are useful to help get the fire going.
- Cover: Usually made from lined vinyl these will protect your BBQ from the elements
