Recommended Gear
What We Actually Use & Recommend
After thousands of hours servicing grills, these are the covers, tools, and accessories that hold up. No fluff — just gear we'd put on our own grills.

Grill Covers
A good cover is the cheapest way to extend a grill's life. Sun, snow, and rain do more damage than cooking ever will.
- WeberWeberOur pick
Weber Grill Cover
Heavy-duty cover sized for Weber gas grills. Resists fading, mildew, and Cincinnati winters — the single best $50 you can spend to keep your grill looking new.
We see uncovered Weber Genesis and Spirit grills lose a full year of life expectancy compared to covered ones. Worth it on day one.

Grates & Heat Plates
Replacement grates and heat shields for the most common grills we service.
- WeberWeberOur pick
Weber Spirit & Genesis Cooking Grates
Cast-iron and stainless replacement grates for Weber Spirit II and Genesis II 2-, 3-, and 4-burner grills. Aftermarket pricing, factory fit.
OEM Weber grates run $90+ a set. The aftermarket cast iron from GPR holds heat just as well for about half — what we recommend to most customers unless the grill is brand new.

Cleaning Supplies
Brushes, scrapers, and degreasers safe for everyday between-service upkeep.
Heavy-Duty BBQ Degreaser
Pro-strength citrus or oven-cleaner degreaser for in-between service upkeep. Spray on cold metal, let it sit 10-15 minutes, wipe with a damp microfiber — no wire brush needed.
Skip the consumer-grade "grill sprays." Easy-Off Heavy Duty (yellow can) or ZEP Citrus are what we actually use. Wear nitrile gloves and keep it off rubber gaskets and aluminum trim.

Parts
Burners, igniters, regulators — the wear-and-tear stuff.
- Char-BroilChar-BroilOur pick
Char-Broil Grease Tray / Cup
Replacement grease pan and cup for most Char-Broil 2-, 3-, and 4-burner gas grills. Sized to drop right into the existing rails.
Hands down the #1 part we replace on Char-Broils — the stamped trays rust through in 3-4 seasons. If yours is flaking, swap it before it leaks onto the burner box.
