We probably all have our share of BBQ or grilling accessories, including tongs, turners, basters, maybe even thermometers (if you finally decided that was the only way you could REALLY know when the meat was done).  But here are some accessories that you might not have seen:

Pig Tail Food Flipper

I was watching the BBQ Pitmaster reruns (yes, there really are reruns!) and noticed several of the teams using these Pig Tail Food Flippers, so I started investigating and found that MANY people use them.  Those that use them, love them and they make it so easy to flip the meat on your grill.  They'll handle almost anything, from steaks to chicken to hot dogs.  They don't work so well with hamburgers, but great for anything else.  The flipper has a curly-Q end with a sharp point that you hook into the meat and then flip your rest and the meat flips over!  Simple as that.  They come in several sizes and even have a left handed version.  See more here.

The MeatRake

If you are cooking BBQ and need something to shred the meat, the Meatrake is the perfect tool.  What normally might take a bit of work is done in very short time with the MeatRake.  If you've ever used two forks to pull pork or shred chicken, then you will love the MeatRake.  Make your next BBQ super easy by using the MeatRakes to pull and shred.  Your hands will stay away from the hot meat and the rakes will do the hard work.

Barbecue Potato Grilling Rack

If you like your potatoes baked, think what they might be if they were grilled!  After all, everything tastes better when it's cooked outdoors!   The answer is with the Barbecue Potato Grilling Rack. The principle is simple, but the result is delicious.  Potatoes are pressed onto upright prongs on a  metal sheet.  Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.  The metal prongs conduct heat into the potato, helping them cook faster.  You'll end up with a fluffy inside and a crisp outside--delicious!
