Napoleon Grills Hottest BBQ Accessories for 2022
2022 already started out right for us BBQ lovers because Napoleon just launched a range of impressive accessories to enhance your grilling experience. There are quite a few nifty BBQ gadgets that we’d like to highlight for their versatility and/or practicality, so let’s get started!
Round and Round We Go
The Prestige and Prestige Pro series have always had rotisseries packaged together, whereas with the Rogue, Legend and now Freestyle series give grill owners the option of purchasing it separately. Either way, as an owner of a full-sized Napoleon gas grill, you’ve always had the option of using the rotisserie regardless. However, this has never been the case for Napoleon’s smallest gas grills (the TravelQ series) or their charcoal kettles… sorry, not sorry! Because that isn’t the case anymore!
Napoleon has not only come up with rotisseries for their TravelQ series and 22” charcoal kettle grills, these rotisserie attachments also feature a pizza oven as part of the deal. Not only are these accessories versatile, they are also easy to set up (perhaps with the exception of attaching it to the PRO22 charcoal kettle series as you will have to unscrew a few bits and pieces of the BBQ and reattach the hinged lid).
A Smokin’ Addition
If you’re an avid griller (especially using charcoal), but once in a while you do like to dabble in a bit of wood smoking, then Napoleon’s diffuser plate might be the perfect addition to add to your grilling tools. Without having to purchase a whole separate smoker which can take up a bit of space (and in Singapore, let’s be real, real estate is premium), the diffuser plate allows you to convert your 22” charcoal kettle into a smoker, and without having to do much either. You won’t need your toolbox to set this system up. Then it’s just a matter of throwing in your favourite charcoal and wood chunks and voila!
Brekkie on the Barbie
IMO using our grills to whip up breakfast is way too underrated. There’s so much emphasis on steaks, hotdogs and burgers – not exactly breakfast foods, for most anyway – that we forget about breakfast foods (notice how I say breakfast foods and not just breakfast? Who says you can only have bacon and eggs in the morning?).
But I love bacon on my griddle. Sure, the air fryer has been convenient with the bacon for a while, but the griddle gives me the option of flipping pancakes at the same time because of how spacious the grill is. And the best part is how crispy and unbelievable the flavor of the bacon is when done on the griddle. And now, with Napoleon’s breakfast toolset, sunny side eggs just got a little more perfect. Just imagine cooking up some hash in leftover bacon grease with your new spatula…ooooh boy. Needless to say, this toolset works best if you have a griddle on hand.
Always Use Protection
Yep, you heard it here folks! We’re talking about protecting the surrounding area of your BBQ and your grill side tables as well. Before, we only had the Napoleon grill mat for 500 series grills. But now with Napoleon’s grill mat for large barbecues, we get much better floor coverage. At 228.6cm by 88.9cm, this easy-to-clean and fire-resistant mat is great from protecting you floor against hot oil and grease, and even against coals and errant sparks!
Besides keeping your floor safe, now you can even show your BBQ side shelves some TLC. This non-slip, silicone protective side shelf mat comes in handy when you want to put down those hot pots, pans and tools onto your side tables. They’re easy to remove and dishwasher safe as well, so you can say an easy “goodbye” to the mess!
