Mr. Bar-B-Q

Buying Guide: Smoke, Heat and Grill Cleaning

Wood Chips and Cedar Planks
Mr. Bar-B-Q wood chips go into a smoker box that sits below the cooking grate, and they should be pre-soaked before use. Its cedar grilling planks add flavor to meats, poultry, seafood and vegetables while you grill. Pick chips for a smoker box setup and planks when you want the wood flavor to come from the plank itself.

Briquettes for Gas Grills
The lava rock briquettes are designed to promote more even and faster cooking on gas grills. The ceramic briquettes help improve heat distribution and reduce cold spots on the grill. Check the weight or piece count on the package to see how much you are getting.

Grill Cleaning Tools
The Scrub Daddy steam cleaner brush uses a bristle-free stainless steel mesh head with a built-in scraper, so you can clean with steam instead of metal bristles. The bristle-free grate cleaner is another option for keeping cooking grates clean. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for preparing and using either tool.
