What's your favorite accessory?

[Cellar2ful]

Hands down the Thermapen. Of all the accessories I have purchased, the Thermapen is the most used and relied on.  Other than long handled tongs and an apron, it is the only BBQ accessory that does double duty in the kitchen. For me it brings precision to my cooking.

Sounds like they upgraded the pop recently. Faster, and with rotating display. I might pull the trigger on one now.

Thermapen gets used all the time, inside and outside cooking.  I also like their DOT.  Slow N Sear ranks right up there too.

So my question for you guys is, what is your absolute favorite kettle accessory?

Another kettle …    … Welcome!

Just got a kettle rotisserie this summer and absolutely love it! I probably won't do a full chicken any other way from now on. Great for all other roasts as well, especially Prime Rib.

Glad you said get another Kettle, I have been reading a lot of posts and it seems like a good bit of you have multiple Kettles.  Why do you need multiple?

I regularly cook for 5-10 people. A single kettle wouldn't cut it, especially since I'm usually doing sides and apps as well.

I normally just cook for my family of four. I had a economy weber for a decade as my only cooker. As kids came along and I got into grilling more, We decided a table would be nice so we bought a performer. Then I found this forum and all hell broke loose! I have 9 kettles now, cook on all of them and love every minute of it.

Just wait, if you hang around long enough with us, you'll soon have more. [emoji41]

And besides being used to put on large kick ass meals, they are just so damn fun to look at. Simple design and competes with some high dollar shit.

One of us. One of us. One of us.

@unometooo - I have three dedicated cooking kettles. Two 22"ers and a 26".   One of the 22's is set up for cooking direct with a cast iron sear grate for steaks, hamburgers, pork chops and fish. The other 22" is set up for cooking indirect and used for longer cooks of chicken pieces, country pork ribs, ribs and roasts. You can achieve the same thing with one kettle but for me it was the convenience of not having to change grates or remove drip pans. The 26" is used for smoking turkey's or when I need a larger cooking area. Cooking for larger groups, it is nice to have several kettles at your disposal.

Favorite?  I'm really liking my Vortex.

As for multiple grills, sometimes you need more cooking area than one grill can provide.  Especially if you're doing a meat and all the sides, too.  And, it really impresses the neighbors when you have 2 or 3 grills going at the same time.

I hate to confuse the matter with practicality, but maybe you should try cooking a few things before deciding what gadget will enable you to do it better?  You may surprise yourself at how little you actually need.
