Your grill is built like a tank, but Mother Nature is relentless. A custom-fit recteq grill cover protects your investment from rain, pollen, sun, and dust all while keeping your stainless steel looking sharp for years. Invest in a cover that will resist cracking, fading, and scratches while providing superior water-resistant protection.
3. Heat Resistant Grill Gloves
Heat-resistant gloves make handling hot racks, searing steaks, or moving grates safer and easier. They’re essential for high-heat searing and when you’re tending to hot accessories like sear kits or cast iron on those hot, late summer nights!
4. Reversible Cast Iron Griddle Sear Kit
Want a perfect crust on steaks or smash burgers? A recteq cast iron griddle or sear kit delivers restaurant-quality sears. Great for veggies, seafood, breakfast cooks, or anything that benefits from direct, even heat. With 2 sides to cook on, this accessory is super helpful when you need a high heat surface to cook with.
Keep your hardwood pellets dry and fresh with an airtight pellet storage bin. You need to keep your pellets away from moisture but they also can cause issues if they are too dry. Proper storage ensures smooth efficient burning all summer long. Side note: they also make great pet food containers as well as great storage for pantry items like rice, flour, and sugar.
Long-handled tongs, a sturdy spatula, and a good basting brush are every pitmaster’s best friends. Arm yourself for every grilling challenge with the recteq 6-Piece Stainless Steel BBQ Tool Set.

Crafted from durable stainless steel, each tool is engineered to handle high heat and heavy use without missing a beat.
Make clean-up a breeze. Disposable drip bucket liners catch grease and drips, saving you time and hassle after your summer cookouts. When it’s hot out you don’t want to want to waste time pouring your grease out when you can quickly remove it with a bucket liner. We also have disposable drip tray liners that make cleaning your tray quick and easy.
Want to experiment? A cold smoker box lets you add a delicate smoke flavor to cheeses, nuts, or even cocktails. Take your hosting to the next level with unique bites your guests won’t forget. You can also save money while also having fun. Smoke your own artisan meats and cheese for an unforgettable charcuterie board.
9. Digital Instant-Read Thermometer
Even with probes, a good instant-read thermometer is a safe, food essential for spot checking temps, especially for poultry or multiple steaks. It allows for quick and accurate temperature checks, preventing both overcooking and undercooking, and helps avoid foodborne illnesses. Never guess and just verify!
