class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">T<\/span>here is no question that LP\/Gas grills have changed tremendously over the past 10 years and now include some features standard that for many years, were options.\u00a0 Then there is the development of dual or multi-fuel options on a grill so you can have one unit that performs as a gas grill, charcoal grill, wood grill, and even electric or pellet grill, all in one unit.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I\u2019m focusing on the standard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/BBQ-With-Propane\">LP\/Gas grill<\/a>, independent of any other fuel source.\u00a0 This guide will focus on the basic tools that will provide for a better grilling experience and make you more efficient at the grill.<\/p>\n<h2>GAS GRILL TOOLS THAT YOU MUST HAVE:<\/h2>\n<h2><strong><em><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Tool #1<\/span> <\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">I<\/span>\u2019m starting with a grill brush since most of us have the habit of thinking about cleaning off the grill grates when we start the grill for cooking, not when we finish.\u00a0 This tool is to ensure clean up the residual food bits and grease left from your previous grilled foods.<\/p>\n<p>Now I\u2019m aware of the controversy over the use of metal bristles but most of these brushes are made well.\u00a0 Simple inspection of the brush bristles each time you use it will allow you to identify if the bristles have come loose and have the potential to be transported to your foods.\u00a0 I prefer a brush with metal bristles, with a long handle to keep my arm away from the heat, as often you want to clean the grill when it\u2019s hot.\u00a0 Remember, most of these brushes are under $10 so think about purchasing one a couple times per season to ensure the bristles stay put.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><em>Tool #2<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">T<\/span>here are times when the grill grates and lid will become super coated in grease and pieces of food.\u00a0 You\u2019ll need to break out the cleaning agents to ensure these surfaces are ready to go for the next grilling event.\u00a0 Two of my favorites are <strong>CLR BBQ Grill Cleaner <\/strong>and <strong>Mr. Clean MagicEraser<\/strong>.\u00a0 As a non-toxic, non-flammable, biodegradable product, <strong>CLR BBQ Grill Cleaner<\/strong> is not something you have to leave on for hours at a time.\u00a0 It quickly breaks through the issues and allows you to wipe clean to an almost new state.\u00a0 Keep in mind, the <strong>CLR<\/strong> brand also makes a stainless steel cleaner for the outside as well.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><em>Tool #3<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">L<\/span>ong-handled tongs.\u00a0 Your standard tong length for the traditional kitchen just won\u2019t work at the grill, as you need to keep some arm distance from the hot grill surfaces.\u00a0 I like the 20-inch length with silicone grips as well as silicone tips, as silicone can tolerate extremely high heat.\u00a0 If you grill multiple food items at the same time, think about purchasing tongs with different colored tips and\/or handles as that will ensure use of one color for a specific food so there\u2019s no transfer of flavors.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><em>Tool #4<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">L<\/span>ike the tongs, a must have is long-handled spatula for those food items that need to be flipped.\u00a0 I prefer one that is made of solid steel and has a bit of a beveling to the edge.\u00a0 Again, the longer the handle the better for keeping away from high heat.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><em>Tool #5<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">A<\/span>n easy to read, digital thermometer.\u00a0 It is a must when you grill or smoke.\u00a0 Look for one that has a longer probe for when your grilling larger roasts and thicker cuts of meats and poultry.\u00a0 Be sure the readout is easy to see and if you grill a lot at night, get one that has a back-lite to see more clearly.\u00a0 If you cook a lot of different animal proteins at the same time, try to have a thermometer dedicated to each food so you don\u2019t cross-contaminate while bacteria may still be an issue. \u00a0There are assorted colors available making it easy to dedicate one to red meat, pork, poultry, and fish.\u00a0 \u00a0Most of the digital thermometers on the market today are under $18 with even more under $10.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><em>Tool #6<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">I<\/span>f you\u2019ve always been a person that cooks directly on the grill grates and only does the standard fare \u2013 hamburgers, sausage, chicken, perhaps ribs \u2013 you need to get out of that rut and learn to do more with your grill.\u00a0 Start by investing in one piece of quality cast iron.\u00a0 Able to withstand intense heat, cast iron can take you from the average griller to someone with skill.\u00a0 Now, you can enjoy recipes normally done on the indoor stove outside in the fresh air, with your cast iron skillet.\u00a0 Remember, there\u2019s a whole line of cast iron cookware so as you expand your skills, you can add to your outdoor cookware.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><em>Tool #7<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">A<\/span>lthough I am a fan of the standard steam table disposable foil pan, any size, shape foil pan will do.\u00a0 These are perfect for use as a drip pan to prevent render juices from spiking flames and as water pans for a two-zone cooking set up.\u00a0 I won\u2019t deny, that I also use these to cook in especially fragile items like fruit and specific vegetables.\u00a0 You certainly can invest in a grill pan but clean up becomes a snap with the disposable pan.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><em>Tool #8<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">A<\/span>lthough the smoker box was originally intended for use with wood chips on the grill, I always use small wood chunks in mine.\u00a0 I prefer a box made from high-grade stainless steel and one that has a hinged lid.\u00a0 My smoker box holds three <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/wood-chunks.html\">Double Filet Wood Chunks from <strong>SmokinLicious<\/strong><strong>\u00ae<\/strong><\/a> perfectly and provides for extended smoke vapor as compared with wood chips.\u00a0 Used directly on the grill grate or set under the grill grate on the heat shield, it produces smoke for hours.\u00a0 Although you can place wood chunks directly on the heat shields, as I\u2019m known to do myself sometimes, they will become permanently marked from the wood ash and eventually need replacing.\u00a0 The smoker box allows you to avoid this.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">T<\/span>here you have it!\u00a0 My TOP <em><strong>TOOLS<\/strong> <\/em>NEEDED FOR <em><strong>GAS<\/strong><\/em> GRILLING for better results and help
