Planning on throwing a backyard barbeque this Memorial Day weekend?

While you’re cleaning your grill and dusting off the cobwebs, make sure you have the proper equipment on hand. Whether you grill on charcoal, propane, pellets, or live fire, it’s essential to have the right tools to help you cook easily and more efficiently.

Right now, Amazon has tons of grilling gadgets and tools for less, from heavy-duty heat-resistant gloves to an instant-read meat thermometer. We've rounded up 12 must-have grill accessories for your culinary tool kit this summer — and they're all under $30.

Every grill master needs a good set of utensils. This 13-piece stainless steel kit includes a variety of items for cooking and serving: tongs, a spatula, a two-prong fork, a cleaning brush, four corn-on-the-cob holders, and four skewers. You also get a carrying case, so they are easy to transport for camping trips, tailgating parties, and other outdoor adventures.

The set has racked up thousands of perfect ratings, so it’s no surprise that more than 5,000 shoppers scooped it up in the past month. I have owned the set for almost a year, and the tools have held up wonderfully. We grill at least twice a week, even in the colder months, so they get plenty of use.

With this handy gadget, you can add flame-kissed flavor to items that normally fall through your grill’s grates. The grilling basket is spacious enough to easily accommodate fish, large meats, and vegetables. It has three compartments and works on gas, charcoal, infrared, and porcelain grills. You will easily be able to flip food thanks to its heat-resistant handles and lockable grate.

“This is a very sturdy grilling basket that doesn't crush even delicate fish when it is closed,” one reviewer wrote. “Probably the best grill basket I have owned over the years,” another added.

The clever tool makes every burger the same size so they will cook evenly. Fill patties with whatever you’d like, and use the smaller insert to form sliders.

Many shoppers say it's easy to use and add that it creates uniformly sized burgers every time. “I bought these for my husband for a BBQ event we were hosting and he loves it,” one customer enthused. “His cheese-filled burgers were the talk of the BBQ.”
