The synthetic Pitmaker High Heat Meat Handling Gloves come in one large size and are said to be safe to 450 degrees F.

The Maverick XR-50 is an extended-range, four-channel wireless remote food and cooker thermometer. It ships with two straight 6" probes and two straight 3" probes.

Weber Kettle Charcoal Rails

By:

Meathead, AmazingRibs.com Founder And BBQ Hall of Famer

I use mine for something else entirely. I have a second bottom grate that I put on top of the rails, and the coals go on top of this elevated grate. That puts them at the perfect height for searing steaks, just below the cooking grates.

Adding a hinge makes opening and closing a Weber Smokey Mountain smoker and Weber kettle grills effortless.

By:

Meathead, AmazingRibs.com Founder And BBQ Hall of Famer

The Smokenator is a popular add-on that turns your Kettle into a smoker. A bit less expensive than the Slow 'N Sear, it lacks the sear function, and because it has a cover over the charcoal and a small water pan just doesn't do the job as well as the SNS.
