| Lets talk grilling tools. I need new ones. Thanks |
|
Long tongs, metal spatula, instant-read thermometer, silicone basting brush, grill brush. Should be all you need. Oh, and a chimney starter if you have a charcoal grill. I have this grill brush. Bought it after a recommendation from America's Test Kitchen. It does a great job, and the steel pad is easily washed in the dishwasher and easily replaced when worn out. No need to buy a new handle. http://www.amazon.com/Tool-Wizard-Grill-Brushes-Scrubbers/dp/B002CIQYKI/ref=sr_1_2?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1348087162&sr=1-2&keywords=Tool+Wizard+grill |

Quoted:
Spatula, long fork, and a paint brush. Keep it simple. Fancy grilling tools will not make you a better cook, and it won't impress your friends. a-bare Oops. Forgot about tongs. What the fuck you using that for, keep away dinner pickers and wildlife? You also forgot instant read thermometer and a wire grill brush. |

Quoted: Quoted: Tongs, silicone basting brush and a SS welding brush to keep the racks clean.  +1 on the silicone brush. BBQ sauce stains and ruins everything else out there. I have seen a lot of grillers buy pastry brushes to use on the grill and then wonder why they have a hard time getting them clean. Just because it's a brush doesn't mean it's the right one for the job. |

I don't even use grates, when I'm cooking a steak (straight on the coals). Anyway, I do all of my grilling with: Lump charcoal Chimney starter Newspaper Zippo Brush Paper Towels and Crisco (for the cast iron grates) Tongs Wireless probe thermometer, if smoking or slow cooking I've never needed anything else.
