4) Smoking Pouch & Wood Chips Set
A smoking pouch and wood chips set is the solution to smoky-tasty grilled foods. The durable stainless steel pouch is filled with the included mesquite, apple, or hickory wood chips. As the pouch heats, chips smolder white smoke, infusing food with flavor without extra effort.
5) Meat Handler and Shredder
The original meat shredding claws are often imitated, but these are the real deal—durable and Made in the USA. Six super sharp prongs easily shred meat, like pulled pork. They offer great grip to lift large roasts or turkeys, and hold them stable when carving. The minimal, ergonomic design is easy to grip and easy to clean, with almost nowhere for bits of food or juices to hide.
