Which kamado bbq accessories are important?
To have a great barbecue experience with your kamado BBQ, there are various accessories you shouldn't miss. Here are some important accessories to consider:
1. Grill riser
A grill riser is an essential accessory for your kamado BBQ. With this riser you can raise the grilling surface, giving you more room to prepare different dishes at the same time. Whether it's juicy steaks or grilled vegetables, a grill riser lets you cook more food without compromising on quality.
2. Pizza stone
A pizza stone is a great addition to your kamado BBQ accessories. With a pizza stone you can bake delicious homemade pizzas with a crispy crust and a flavourful base. The heat distribution of the kamado BBQ combined with the pizza stone gives an even and crispy bake for the pizza. You'll be amazed by the results!
3. Smoking wood
Smoking wood is an essential accessory for those who love experimenting with flavours. With different types of smoking wood, such as apple wood, mesquite or hickory, you can add a delicious smoky flavour to your dishes. Just add a handful of smoking wood to the charcoal and enjoy the subtle aromas that take your dishes to the next level.
4. Charcoal
Charcoal is the most used fuel for barbecuing, because it produces intense heat and gives a smoky flavour to the food. Charcoal is made by burning wood with little oxygen, evaporating the water and volatile substances and leaving only the carbon. The type of wood used to make the charcoal can affect the flavour of your food, since different types of wood give off different aromas. It's important to choose good quality charcoal for barbecuing, since cheaper, poor quality charcoal often produces more ash and burns out faster.
5. Cast iron pans
Cast iron pans are a must-have for every bbq lover, these sturdy pans are easy to maintain, but more importantly, you can prepare delicious dishes with them. Cast iron pans are available in many types and sizes, with the skillet and the Dutch oven being the most popular.
6. Grill tong with extended handle
A good grill tong with an extended handle is a must-have accessory for your kamado BBQ. It lets you stay a safe distance from the heat while turning your food. The extended handle gives extra convenience and control, letting you handle your food with precision. With a sturdy and durable grill tong you can confidently show off your barbecuing skills.
7. Digital meat thermometer
A digital meat thermometer is an essential tool to make sure your meat is perfectly cooked. With an accurate thermometer you can measure the internal temperature of your meat and achieve the desired doneness. Whether you want to grill a juicy steak or prepare tasty poultry, a digital meat thermometer gives you the certainty that your dishes are cooked perfectly.
8. BBQ gloves
Safety is of the utmost importance when barbecuing, and that's why BBQ gloves are an essential accessory. These heat-resistant gloves protect your hands and forearms from the intense heat of the kamado BBQ. You can work comfortably and worry-free with hot coals, grates and accessories. Invest in a pair of high-quality BBQ gloves and enjoy a safe and carefree barbecue experience.
9. Marinade injector
A marinade injector is a handy accessory to infuse your meat with flavourful marinades. With a marinade injector you can inject the marinade directly into the meat, so it absorbs the flavours and becomes more tender while cooking. Whether it's juicy chicken breasts or tender pork fillets, a marinade injector adds an extra dimension of flavour to your dishes.
10. Griddle plate
A griddle plate/plancha is a handy accessory for preparing delicate dishes that would otherwise fall through the grate. With a griddle plate you can easily grill finely chopped vegetables, seafood or even eggs without them ending up in the fire. The griddle plate has small holes that ensure the heat is distributed evenly and your dishes are cooked perfectly. With a griddle plate you can prepare a wide range of tasty and varied dishes.
11. Charcoal basket
If you barbecue often, you naturally want to spend as little time as possible filling, lighting and keeping your kamado clean. That's why the charcoal basket is one of the most popular accessories. It improves the airflow in your kamado, and refreshing and adding charcoal is fixed in no time. This charcoal basket comes standard with our Pro Large and Pro XL kamado.
12. Smart Qooking System Multilevel system
Barbecuing directly above the hot coals, and indirectly above the hot coals. That's possible with the Smart Qooking System Multilevel system. And you can also cook at different levels.
