BBQ Smoking Accessories

You don't need a new barbecue to cook better on it. The right BBQ and outdoor cooking accessories add smoke, keep small food under control and open up new things to cook.

Wood for smoke on the barbecue

Coarse wood chips are made for smoke boxes and for scattering on charcoal, and the BBQ wood chip variety pack has six woods to try, from apple and cherry to hickory. Our wood chip guide matches woods to food. To hold chips over a gas burner, use a smoker box: the BBQ smoker box set comes with oak and cherry chips, and there are more in smoking ovens and smoker boxes.

BBQ grill baskets

A BBQ grill basket stops small or awkward food falling through the grate and lets you turn a batch in one move. The corn on the cob grill basket holds up to four cobs with a sliding lock, and the mini burger slider basket holds up to nine patties. Both are non-stick with heat-resistant handles.

Cold smoking and smoking ovens

For cold smoking cheese or salmon in a covered barbecue, the ProQ cold smoke generator smoulders wood dust slowly without adding heat. The KitchenCraft smoking oven hot-smokes fish and meat on a barbecue, and the Complete Hot Smoking Kit is a standalone smoker that runs on methylated spirit (not included). Smoke colour and time don't show that food is safely cooked: follow the appliance instructions and the Food Standards Agency cooking guidance, use a food thermometer, and never use a barbecue, charcoal or outdoor-only burner indoors.
