When it comes to cooking during the summertime, there's nothing better than grilling, smoking, and barbecuing outdoors. Here are some awesome products for anyone who looks cooking al fresco.
1. A reliable Webber charcoal grill that cooks like a much more expensive grill, but won't cost you a fortune: it holds its temperature, has a large cooking area, cooks food evenly, and is easy to clean.
2. A deluxe grilling tools set with a protective case containing grill tongs, a cleaning brush, a silicone basting brush, corn holders, skewers, aka just about everything you'll need for barbecuing.
3. A gas-powered pizza oven that reaches over 900 degrees F and cooks pizzas in 60 seconds, producing restaurant-style pies at home (and yes, they really come out that good).
4. Or an easy-to-clean ceramic pizza stone to sit right on top of your grill, gets super hot, and helps achieve delightfully crispy pizza crust.
5. A heavy duty, stainless-steel melting dome that not only melts cheese on hamburgers or in quesadillas, but also keeps food moist while cooking.
6. A stainless-steel grilling basket to contain smaller foods like grilled veggies and shrimp, and prevents them from falling through the grates.
7. A pair of magnetic, adjustable LED lights you can attach to your grill to help you see while you're cooking at night.
8. A pair of heat-resistant, nonslip grilling gloves to protect your hands while you cook on a flaming hot barbecue.
9. A portable Cuisinart vertical smoker that doesn't take up a ton of space, costs less than comparable products, and slow-cooks anything from turkey to brisket and imparts delicious flavor to your meat.
10. A dishwasher-safe burger press for making perfectly shaped patties that cook evenly for your summer cookouts.
11. A trusty ThermoPro digital meat thermometer to ensure anything you're grilling — from thick steaks to chicken breasts — is properly cooked through and safe to enjoy.
12. A pre-seasoned Lodge cast-iron skillet that you can place over a grill or a campfire to make anything from fajitas to pizza.
13. A set of nonstick, dishwasher safe Grillaholics grill mats – place them directly on top of your grill to ensure food doesn't stick to or fall through the grates.
14. A Himalayan salt plank that sits on top of your grill and adds a subtle, delicious flavor to anything from meat to seafood without any added salt.
15. A heat-resistant stainless-steel basting brush (plus back-up brush heads!) for applying sauces, glazes, and oils to your meat while grilling.
