Grilling Products

Having the right grilling products allows you to easily plate up an individual serving or feed groups of people. Utensil sets, thermometers, and other grilling accessories are must-haves for casual users and professionals alike. At Staples, you'll find products from popular companies such as Mr. Bar-B-Q, Omaha Steaks, and Jim Beam.

Grilling Tools
Grilling tools help you handle food safely before and after it goes on the barbecue. They are built to withstand the high heat of the grill with durable stainless steel construction and hardy handles for easy maneuvering. BBQ toolsets are a must for anyone who regularly cooks over the open flame, and they come with multiple components. Most sets include a long-handled spatula for flipping burgers and tongs for turning over steaks and chicken. Skewers are excellent for making kabobs, and they come in stainless steel or wooden varieties. A steel brush cleans off the racks between uses, removing food particles. Some BBQ utensil sets include knives and corn holders, as well as a carrying case or tote to keep all components contained when not in use. Others come with a heavy-duty grilling apron with pockets that keep tools handy and within quick reach.

Pots, Pans and Burners
Grills vary in size, but many modern units have a side burner that eliminates trips to the kitchen stove. Those that lack one often work with third-party solutions as an add-on option. Cast iron pans make an excellent addition to the process, letting you cook non-traditional foods, such as vegetables, on the same racks as your steaks and burgers. Their durable construction stands up to the high heat levels and they come in multiple sizes to accommodate various barbecue models. Grilling baskets make it easy to cook corn on the cob or smaller food items like shrimp, without them falling through the slots. They have long handles so you can turn them without getting too close to the flame.

Must-Have Accessories
It's important to cook foods to the right temperature before serving to avoid food-borne illnesses. Use a thermometer to help determine when meats are cooked through. Some come with programmable options that let you set the type of meat and desired taste level. An LCD is easy to read, and those that come with remotes eliminate the need to hang around the grill. Mats keep the grill firmly in place, providing a nonslip surface. They come in several colors or you can display your team pride for college or professional sports while you cook. A cover protects the barbecue from the elements between cookouts. In addition to keeping out dirt and stray wildlife, many have heat-resistant materials and waterproof coatings.

Grilling Foods
Steaks, burgers, and hot dogs are grilling staples, and they come in packages of two or more. They are flash-frozen to preserve freshness and flavor, and you can choose from sirloin, filet mignon, and filet of prime rib for steak options. Omaha Steaks also offers pork chops, chicken breasts, shrimp, and fish varieties such as Mahi Mahi and salmon. You can buy them to have on hand for random grilling sessions, or purchase bulk supplies in advance for a corporate summer cookout.
