11 Must-Have Blackstone Griddle Accessories You Can Get for $25 or Less

Outdoor griddle cooking is a relatively new sensation. It wasn’t that long ago when griddle utensils were a combination of second-string kitchen gadgets and tools from the garage, best suited for hanging sheetrock or spreading cement. Fortunately, grilling accessories have evolved since I got my first Blackstone Griddle, and my days of using a cement trowel to make a smashburger are behind me for good.

The evolution and adaptation of barbecue tools for use at the griddle have made outdoor cooking more fun. I look for grilling tools that make your griddle cleaner, keep your food warmer, and make everything taste more delicious. Although geared for the Blackstone, these grilling tools work well for cooking on any outdoor griddle.

Lanlw Silicone Grill Mat

Say goodbye to smudges, smears, and spills on the griddle shelf with this silicone grill mat. Any grease, sauce, or food scraps that cooking utensils have accumulated will leave their mark on the silicone mat, not on your shelves or prep surface. Dishwasher safe, this heat-resistant grill mat is easy to clean and safe for use on the side of your griddle’s side shelf. 

Cuisinart Grilling Prep and Serve Trays

Nostalgic cafeteria vibes prevail when seeing these prep-and-serve trays, but after a closer look, that’s where the similarities end — these trays are color-coded. Use the red tray to take raw food outdoors to your griddle, and use the black tray to serve cooked food directly from the griddle, without the fear of cross-contamination. Holding up to 20 pounds, these dishwasher-safe trays have raised ridges to allow food to rest on a built-in cooling rack.

Blackstone Griddle Seasoning and Cast Iron Conditioner

One of the keys to making delicious food on the griddle is having a properly seasoned cooking surface. Blackstone’s Griddle Seasoning and Cast Iron conditioner is perfect for doing your initial griddle seasoning or refreshing the cooking surface after a deep cleaning. When used properly, it makes your griddle virtually nonstick and won’t go rancid like some oils. 

Wimeors Barbecue Meat Resting Bag

Instead of wrapping your resting brisket or ribs with expensive foil, consider getting a barbecue meat resting bag for the job. Perfect for larger cuts of meat, this resting bag is ideal for transporting hot griddled food like burgers, hot dogs, and stir-fry to your next picnic or gathering. With five layers of insulation, your food will be piping hot once the party gets started. 

OXO Good Grips Grilling Tools

It’s no surprise that someone has combined two of the most useful outdoor cooking tools into a single kit. Some of the sturdiest tongs and spatulas on the market are from OXO, and this kit is perfect for any griddle, grill, or smoker. The spring-loaded tongs are durable, and the spatula is sturdy enough to smash burgers with ease. 

Cuisinart Basting Brush Set

This integrated basting brush set means you can say goodbye to pouring barbecue sauce directly from the bottle to your food. Place its stainless steel cup directly on your griddle surface to keep butter sauces and broths warm and ready for basting. The removable silicone brush head is easy to clean, and the whole kit is dishwasher safe.

Heruki Double Skewers

If you love kebabs, satay, or even yakitori, a set of these double skewers is something worth looking at. The addition of a second skewer to the stainless steel means extra stability, making food easy to flip. These skewers are dishwasher-safe, long-lasting, and can cook a lot of meat, vegetables, and seafood all at the same time. 

Deedro 14-Piece Griddle Accessory Kit

One look at this 14-piece griddle accessory set and you can’t help but get excited to start cooking. From egg rings to basting brushes, these utensils cover everything you need to cook on your flat top. A compact storage bag allows the dishwasher-safe utensils to be stored compactly near your griddle. 

Cuisinart Burger Smasher

If you love the crispy lattice burgers you get when smashed on the griddle, Cuisinart’s burger smasher is a must-have accessory. It helps you make great burgers but can also be used to press sandwiches, caramelize vegetables, or keep bacon from curling. It’s fantastic for getting beautifully browned breakfast potatoes and helping unevenly shaped food like boneless chicken breasts cook more uniformly. 

Whaleme 50-Pack Disposable Grease Catch Liners

Good-bye, messy grease traps! These disposable grease-catch liners sit inside your grease trap, allowing liquids to be quickly and easily removed for disposal. These trays fit most of Blackstone’s outdoor griddles. Arriving in a 50-pack, they should last at least through the weekend. 

Blackstone Deluxe Taco Holder

Tuesdays just got a dozen times better when you make tacos with Blackstone’s deluxe taco holder. Designed to sit directly on the griddle surface, each holds up to six taco shells, tortillas, or even crepes directly over the warm griddle surface. With silicone handles, this taco holder conveniently doubles as a serving rack that can go directly from the griddle to the fiesta table.
