GRILL ACCESSORIES

The right accessories prevent problems that ruin food and waste money. Flare-ups char expensive cuts of meat while burning off marinades and seasonings you spent time preparing. Inadequate smoke flavour leaves food tasting like it came from any grill instead of delivering the results that make grilling worthwhile. Limited cooking zones force you to choose between proper searing temperatures and gentle cooking for vegetables, compromising one dish to accommodate another. Quality accessories solve these specific challenges immediately, improving your cooking results from the first use while lasting through hundreds of cookouts without warping or deteriorating.

Equipment protection through proper covers extends your grill’s lifespan significantly. Weather damage that accumulates over seasons turns a ten-year grill into a three-year replacement. Rain causes rust on unprotected components. Sun deteriorates plastic parts and fades finishes. Snow and ice create moisture that corrodes metal surfaces. A quality cover costs a fraction of premature replacement while maintaining your grill’s appearance and performance. Side burners and additional cooking surfaces add functionality that transforms your outdoor cooking from basic grilling to complete meal preparation, eliminating the indoor kitchen trips that interrupt your workflow and cool down your cooking rhythm.

Stainless steel construction defines our accessory line. Smoker boxes maintain structural integrity through repeated heating cycles instead of warping after a season. Side burners and searing stations use heavy-gauge materials that withstand high temperatures without deteriorating. This construction standard ensures accessories perform consistently and last for years rather than becoming weak points in your grilling setup.

Island Grillstones use naturally porous volcanic rock to prevent flare-ups while retaining food moisture and flavour. The stones absorb drippings before they hit burners, eliminating flames that char surfaces while leaving interiors undercooked. This cooking method works particularly well for delicate fish, marinated vegetables, and any food where you want seasoning to stay on the item rather than burning off. The stones handle high temperatures without cracking and come in sizes that fit both full-sized and Versa portable grills.

Heavy-duty covers use weatherproof materials designed specifically for our grill models. Proper ventilation, reinforced stress points, and secure fastening systems protect your investment from rain, snow, sun, and debris without trapping moisture that causes hidden corrosion. These covers maintain their integrity through years of outdoor exposure, backed by five-year warranties that reflect genuine durability rather than marketing claims.

The stainless steel smoker box fits all of our full-sized grills including Keystone, Lux, and Supreme series. The box dimensions accommodate standard grill configurations without blocking burners or interfering with cooking grate placement. For Versa portable grills, smoking is possible but requires different techniques due to the compact firebox design.

Place the grillstone on your cooking grate and preheat your grill with the stone in place. The volcanic rock needs time to reach cooking temperature. Once preheated, cook directly on the stone surface. The porous material absorbs drippings and prevents flare-ups while retaining food moisture and flavour. Clean the stone after use by scraping off residue and occasionally heating it on high to burn off accumulated oils.

Side burners and searing burners are compatible with specific grill models including Lux 550/700 carts, Supreme 550/700 carts, and built-in versions of Lux 550/700 and Supreme 550/700/850. When ordering a side or sear burner for a cart model, a knockout side shelf is included. The Keystone series includes a ceramic side searing burner as standard equipment but doesn’t accept additional side burner accessories. Contact us to verify compatibility with your specific model.

Quality covers last for years with proper care. Our heavy-duty covers carry five-year warranties and typically exceed that lifespan when maintained properly. Replace covers when they show signs of material deterioration, tears that compromise weather protection, or fastening systems that no longer secure properly. Cleaning your cover periodically and ensuring your grill is cool and dry before covering extends cover life significantly.

The searing burner station concentrates high heat in a focused zone specifically designed for creating crusts on steaks and achieving restaurant-quality sear marks. Side burners provide general cooking capacity for sauces, side dishes, and any cooking that benefits from dedicated burner space outside your main grilling surface. Both add functionality, but they serve different cooking purposes.

No. Island Grillstones are made from porous volcanic rock that shouldn’t go in dishwashers. Clean them by scraping off food residue after cooking and occasionally heating them on high to burn off accumulated oils. The stones are naturally antimicrobial and don’t require soap or extensive cleaning. Proper care maintains their performance through many uses.

Clean stainless steel accessories with mild soap and water after use. For stubborn residue, use stainless steel cleaner specifically formulated for outdoor equipment. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that scratch protective finishes. Our 101CN abrasive stainless steel cleaner works well on weathered stainless but shouldn’t be used on new shiny surfaces. Proper cleaning maintains appearance and prevents buildup that affects performance.

The smoker box is designed for wood chips. Wood pellets can be used but require different management. Pellets burn faster and produce less smoke than chips. If using pellets, monitor them closely and expect to refill the box more frequently. Wood chips provide consistent, longer-lasting smoke for most grilling applications.

Most grill accessories carry a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects and material failures. Heavy-duty grill covers have a 5-year warranty. Specific warranty terms vary by product.
