My Foolproof Trick for Perfect Grilled Vegetables Is on Sale Right Now

Grilling used to intimidate me, but it doesn’t anymore. Since acquiring a gas grill a few years ago, I’ve found that the hardest part isn’t handling food at such a high heat, it’s ensuring I’m equipped with the proper tools to cook outdoors. After some trial and error, I’ve learned that while my kitchen tongs and digital meat thermometers more than earn their keep, my grill topper has proved invaluable. 

I pull this clever gadget out weekly over the summer to make charred zucchini planks, blistered tomatoes, smoky corn cobs, and more. Its construction allows for all of the flavor and none of the hassle since no vegetables can fall through its thin perforations. Such a simple, clever design makes this now-$30 tool too important to grill without.

Weber Grill Pan Topper 

While the brand I own is sold out, Weber’s model is recommended by thousands of Amazon shoppers. Customers love how easy it is to carry and cook with, thanks to its large handles and wide surface area (about 18 x 12 inches). After owning this topper for years, one reviewer commented that it “makes grilling easier and cleaner,” since food doesn’t stick or fall between the grates. A second shopper said this tool is the reason they started using their grill, writing that “grilled vegetables have become a staple with just about every dinner” since they acquired it. 

A third customer claimed the grill pan topper is so well built, it’s “in a class of its own.” Since Weber’s grill topper is made from a thick slab of stainless steel, shoppers never have to worry about warping metal or toxic chemicals leaching into their food. It’s also raised on all four edges to keep vegetables from flying off. While the stainless steel can discolor over time, shoppers swear it’s easy to clean if you let it soak for a few minutes before scrubbing gently with a soapy sponge. A class of its own, indeed.   

Whether you’re grilling vegetables, shrimp, or fish, Weber’s grill topper is bound to become your new favorite summer accessory. I use my tray nearly every week when the weather is warm, and you probably will, too. Grab it now while it’s on sale for just $30.
