BBQ Gloves
Things can get pretty hot around your pellet grill, so make sure you’ve got the right tools to keep you protected. Most oven gloves we use in the kitchen aren’t well suited for grilling purposes, so we created our heat-resistant BBQ gloves to give you the ultimate protection. Our BBQ gloves resist up to 1472F and have anti-slip silicone grips to ensure you keep hold of your tools, pots, pans, and anything else you’re moving.

It’s simply a large hand-held cast iron grill that you press on top of your meats as they cook on your pellet grill and it will add aesthetically pleasing grill lines, squeeze out unwanted or excess fats, flatten things like burgers so they cook faster, and weigh down bacon so it doesn’t curl up. You can also use it for paninis and grilled sandwiches – it’s such a versatile tool and a must-have in your tool kit.
Basting Brushes
If you haven’t yet got a pair of basting brushes for marinating your food and adding glazes, it’s time to get some. Our basting brushes ensure all of your sauce is evenly spread both before you cook, and during. Our silicone bristles are heat-resistant, so get the ultimate flavor every time.
Grill Thermometer
We all know that the success of your smoking comes down to your temperature, so make sure you’re cooking your meals to the perfect degree. Our Smart Wireless BBQ thermometer is the best solution out there – you can insert probes into your cuts and monitor the temperature through the display and your app. It will then alert you when your food has reached the perfect, cooked-through temperature.
