You are right, you really need every one of those things! Great list for a newbie or a seasoned pro. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Great video, I use 9 out of the 10 items, and I think a blue tooth thermometer, disposable water pans, charcoal chimney, and a nice folding lawn chair come in handy too. Nice work keep up the informative videos.
I would add a knife sharpener, various shakers for rubs, a coffee/spice grinder (mostly for black pepper), a funnel or two for putting rub from a bowl into a shaker, squeeze bottles for BBQ sauces.
Great video! I use tongs often, and consider them essential. Mention of a chimney charcoal starter to start wood fires would be a bonus item.
I’m with you...I love my Shun knives, but sometimes less is more! (Especially when it comes to accidentally dropping a knife.)
Great video! I also like having a really good set of tongs and plater for taking the meat to and from the pit.
Great to see you posting vids more frequently! Awesome content as always.
Great video!!!👍🏽
Love the Old Country Wrangler
Great video for the basic items. The one thing I would add is a table like the one in your video. Easy to keep clean and doing BBQ and long cooks it keeps things off the ground. Again well done on the basic items.
Great ideas for those folks just starting out! For me, the only thing I would add is charcoal, buy quality charcoal, not the cheapest and if you are smart, look at the Home Depots when they go on sale... buy in bulk and save $$$. Great video brotha!
Great information. I’ve watched nearly everything Franklin has done and like his style. What I really like about your channel is the extras, I don’t cook as often as I you by far but enough that I’ve purchased a dual probe thermometer and now I know the better knife to purchase. Really like the apron but I have a “smoking shirt” had it forever, looks like hell but it’s a thing I never cook with out it LOL. Anyway great vid and hope you have continued success
This is one of the most useful videos I’ve seen on UA-cam for someone who is beginning to barbecue and smoke meat
Another great video! Thanks fort the headlamp tip. I've never considered one till now! Keep up the good work!
Great list! I use all of them regularly, except I don't have a paper cutter.
In addition to your list, I would add:
- Good quality tongs
- Spatula/flipper
- Shaker bottle for mixing and applying rubs
- Grill brush
- Basting brush/slop mop
- Charcoal chimney
Bluetooth digital thermometer Chogood makes a really nice one, it has a place for 6 different probes. i put one or 2 on my grate to monitor internal temps better, and then one in each meat. it reports back to an app on your phone when the temps are to low or to high. I love that thing
I've been wanting to get one of those "chef's" jackets that protect both my body and my arms for years, but for now I just have two long sleeve, dark gray t-shirts that I call my "grillin" shirts. They take in the smell of smoke and I also wear an old silk cap to protect my curly hair from smelling like smoke every time I open my smoker. :)
Great video, bro! My most useful tools are: leather apron, headlamp (in Northern Europe it gets pretty dark in winter and fall), welding gloves, Meater+, tongs with silicon tips and disposable gloves.
Tongs, an ash tool/bucket, some good blues music and a good beer is all you forgot! 😜😋😅
Beer and a spare beer, just in case one runs out.
Fredrick Smith Enough Beer is # 1 or how can we cook ? It doesn’t make sense to run out of Beer 🍺
😂
I think you mean 6 pack and spare 6 pack
In case?
@@SousTerre1 you mean to say a case of beef lol
I was expecting accessories, but your list of essential is spot on.
One thing about the knives. We have a resturant store in our area where we go better grade kitchen stuff than the local box store. These knives are designed to be gripped when your hand is slippery. The other knives I have used have a smooth finish and your hands need to be really clean.
I also use aluminum trays to transport or hold meats. Other fringe items are pork shredding claws, charcoal starter chimney, and fire tending tools.
Hey Jeremy,
Since it has been awhile would love to see an updated version of the list.
Maybe even make it more than 10.
Maybe 15, 20, 25?
Were love to see how your list has changed or items used have changed over time.
First that scenery is amazing, just beautiful I wanna move there.
Those accents are just fantastic!
Good job. And I do like that apron.
One thing I use a lot is tongs.
Love them all! 👍🏼
A few items I have that you didn't mention, a solid folding table/chair to keep outside with you, I use a bluetooth temp reader (I have the igrill) works great to keep grate level temps and meat temps I can check on my phone, and propane torch if you're using charcoal.
Thanks for the recommendations!
A 1” putty knife. I use it to scrape almost anything. It’s really great to clean off my soapstone right after a cook. Same with my griddle. It cleans easily, unlike grill brushes.
Awesome vid ! As always ,
Great video, love your work mate
You do a killer English accent mate, too funny !
Just found your channel ! Love it ! Thanks
Solid list. Just got a kettle the list helped
good video, only thing i'd maybe add is a chimney coal starter.... i guess thats more of a preference though i know a lot of guys just use a torch but i like the set and forget aspect of the chimney. throw some crumpled newspapers or pieces of coal bag in the chimney for starter. i usually invert the chimney to get a small amount of coals going with the minion method for low n slow cooks
I have most of those items except a head lamp and apron. I may get the knives too. If I do, I'll use your link. Nice tips Jeremy. I say there mate
Phil N Florence
Thanks phil
A couple of things I find very important are a leave in Thermometer, (with multiple inputs for both the meat and the pit) I have the Fireboard which is Wifi I always forget something and have to go get it! That way I can check the temps from across town or upstairs in bed while doing over night cooks. A cambro Or at least a nice cooler to rest the meat in while the heat and juices redistribute. I very much like the idea of the head lamp!! Yep I'm out there with my phone lighting the way!! Gonna go get one off Amazon right now!! Great video as always
Gadjet Griller
Haha. I like the idea of WiFi probes
Great video. Thanks for sharing!!
Good clip. Very informative and well presented.
And I enjoyed the well executed Southern drawl.......... and the English accent too.
You must have a great ear........perhaps even two.
Keep up the good work!
bought a few.. thanks for the tips!
Another great video! Thanks
a good wireless multi-probe thermometer - i recommend the thermoworks products.
Thanks for your Video ... most of the items i am already using ... BUT, the advice with the bread knife is new to me and I will definitely try it out, since I am looking since quite a while for a decent slicing knife. Double thumbs up, brother! I really appreciate all the work you do to support people who love to BBQ. I follow you since quite a while and I can say, that you helped me in quite a few ways regarding a perfect cooking.
Best regards from Germany
Dietrich
I bought 1 from a bakery supply store...Double Serrated. ...Will Not Use Another Knife...I Have 3 Now...The more expensive rounded edge are good but delicate. ..!!! Happy Grilling...!!! Only Paid $9 For Each...!!!
Vielen Dank
Great advice. Thanks.
woohoo! another vid!!
Excellent video!
I think for the guys that have store bought or maybe homemade smokers a temperature gauge at grate level(s) so you know what temperature you're actually cooking the food. Instant Read is awesome too but you mentioned that!
Try the Shun Classic 9” bread knife (if you haven’t tried it) ! It works better than my wusthof 12” brisket slicer. I know that ones cheap but nothing looks better than a shun knife.
I’m mexican and your numbering at the end of the video was perfect, hahaha.
Very useful video, thanks.
I would suggest a hand towel. I always have one hanging from my apron so I can clean my hands -even when I wear gloves as well- regularly.
Great video, thanks so much
Thank you sir for your videos ...... I always learn something for watching
Great video...and original. Liked the personality and impressions. I would suggest a digital thermometer with a temp warning. I also suggest stainless steel cooking dredges for your rug.
stricklerville
What are stainless steel cooking dredges
Thank you for your time.
Excellent Video Thank You So Much 😊
I also use an apron to prevent soot from getting on my sleeves 😉
Very helpful !
I would lime to see an update on this. I just started watching your channel and I have seen a lot of changes you have made. Also I think it would be helpfully it toy added very basic seasons too.
Thank you for you helpful tips
Awesome videos. Keep them coming. I have to find me a go go gadget apron
Very nice. That's a leather face apron right there.
You have to get yourself a looftlighter. I have been using one for several years now, and it beats my Weber chimneys soundly when it comes to speed and convenience.
Hey Mad Scientist , you forgot a good pair of tongs. Thanks for all you do.
James Barbee
Good point. I use the gloves and liners for pretty much everything
It's a good start. I could think of more items with the tongs. One thing I use all the time is the BBQ Dragon and Fan Blower. Get my fire going in minutes. Maybe make a King Kong version of BBQ Essentials is the next video. 😊
I was thinking hardy BBQ Fork (at least 2ft long), firepit poker, dozen plastic forks (for taste test) or spoons (beans, mac & cheese, apple/blackberry cobbler)
I've smoked my eyes out, burned my sleeves, hit my head on the lid to many times (think bull in a china shop). I use Temp-Dex heat gloves from Grainger as a liner.
@@greathornedowl3644 funny thing you mentioned the bull in a china shop, they are actually more likely to leave it like they entered it if not disturbed while in it, mythbusters did a whole episode on it and even with like 3 bulls all at the same time the damage was so minimal they had to bust that myth. Literally all tail damage from them knocking stuff over unknowingly with their swinging tails. It was honestly one of the coolest things to see disproven

Agree with others about digital thermometer with multiple probes. Mine has a remote control head I keep with me so I don’t have to be at the smoker to check the temp of the meat or smoker. I use the instant read thermometer for quick grilling like steaks, chicken.
wayne moran
Hey man I am definitely in the minority about the probes. Your method makes sense though
What brand is best?
@@chrishamilton2694 I’ve used the Thermo Pro TP-20 for a few years and love it. I now have a pellet smoker which is supposed to keep the grill temp consistent but I’ve found mine runs hotter than indicated so I still use the Thermo Pro for grill temp and meat temp. There’s probably an updated version of mine but if you can find a TP-20 it’ll probably be less expensive.
@@waymor2460 thanks for the info!
I definitely need a paper cutter. Even when I'm cooking inside I like to line my counter space
Loved the cockney accent. 😂
Great British accent! And I live in New England so I know.
Just purchased the boning knife....thnx
Items I cannot live without is welding gloves, a good infrared thermometer, a clock, timer or multi functional wrist watch. Bluetooth speaker, a cooler, a fan.
So what do you do during a 14 hour cook? I can see myself getting caught up in project #2 and forgetting about the fire. Any thoughts?
Awesome thank you so much
Great video bro...dont forget a good charcoal chimney...
Gracias por la información es muy útil si algún día tienes la oportunidad de visitar Nuevo León México aquí fabricamos ahumadores (Smokers) de 250 gal a 1000 gal
On the Bravos smoker did the firebox leak bad around door with the warming plate?
How could you leave off a weed burner
Use to start the fire . I use it on a vertical gravity feed smoker to start the charcoal & heat the cook chamber if need on cold days. I can start it and be up to temperature in about 20 minutes
Hey mad scientist, what is that white knife you have? It has more of a finger guard than the Mercer boning knife that you linked to in the description
A glass of wine and some music 😁
The bbq foil has a shiny and a dull side with the dull side up for the non-stick side so the fat/grease to be able to run down it to the drip can or bucket. If the foil isn’t too messy, it sometimes can be wiped off and re-used.
John I hope you know all Aluminum Foil has a Shiny & Dull Side.
@@user1233002 Yes, but all foil is not created equally since the dull side of regular foil is not necessarily non-stick.
Here are a few things that might help: boxes of Baking Soda (cheap natural fire extinguisher), bag of Large onions (Cheap natural way to clean grills and grates), and a wood splitter and rubber mallet (Safer than a hatchet for making kindling).
Will the glove liners help the horrible rash on the backs of my hands? I have to wear gloves for work and i hope it helps it itches and stings all the time
might need some thick insulated gloves, like welders gloves for picking up some hot stuff
Quite a random one but Clorox wipes - especially when dealing with chicken/pork.
Great video as always!
Jon Andrews
Good point. I use those every time I cook
@@MadScientistBBQ I get through so many but I feel so much better with them close by.
What brand of apron are you wearing on the video, as the one you have highlighted is different on amazon...
Thanks
You linked to an 18" butcher paper cutter. Is that your preferred size, or do you like wider paper better?
which is the best protective heat apron that you can recommend?
Great info! If you watch Thermworks website real close they have deals! I picked up a MK4 for $74. I’m going to get a set of knifes soon!
Eric’s BBQ And MORE!
Good to know!
Hello Jeremy.. I know this video is a couple years old ; but I just ordered the exact Lavatools Javelin Pro Duo ( green ) from Amazon .. Is this a really good thermometer vs a Thermoworks thermopen?? I also have the same spritzing bottle that I use.. I purchased spritzing bottle from my local Lowe's.. Keep up the Great video's..Also where did u get r ordered your butcher paper cutter?? I wld like to purchase 1.. ✌
I have 8 out of 10 of these items. I don't have a really good apron or a cutting board with a well. A few years ago my wife gave me a pair of bear claws for shredding meat. I really like them, not sure if they are essential.
Nice!!
Hi Jeremy. I am planning to cook a brisket & pork shoulder this weekend on a two shelf electric smoker and wanted to get your advise. Would you put the pulled pork in the top shelf and let the fat drip on the brisket or the other way around?
Brisket on top i say.
0:06 “at home” *in the middle of the fucking desert 😂*
As a English person that accent is funny! 😂
Yes, yes, and a resounding fuck yes to the headlamp. I call it the “anti-fuck-up light”
Dude, can you please make a video for a brisket in a kettle?
your techniqe looks amazing and I'm looking for smooking a brisket for the Super Bowl, as moist as yours'!
thanks and big fan here, nice channel!
Eduardo Ayala
I don’t actually have a kettle so I would have to get one before I give it a shot
Fun fact: The company that produces Shun knives also produces Kershaw and Zero Tolerance knives.
Jeremy- Do you compete at the Houston Livestock show and cook off? If so how did you do?
Hey Can you send a link for those cotton glove liners? Thankyou!
Very important a good quality meat injector
Great video! Sure would like For you to explain why you have the different locations from the house in the city to the what appears to be desert location for some of your pets to think one or two other places that are at the middle of nowhere. I think it be nice to explain it
David Reynolds
Fair enough. I’ll probably do a video on that
Great because others have mentioned it.
Hog Sprayer is the best.
Is that spraybottle foodsafe or are you spraying little bits of phthalate on all brisket's?
The grill foil is heavy duty and has a non stick side. It really isnt meant for what we use foil for smoking. It is more designed for grilling veggies/shrimp/stuff like that in a foil pouch/foil covered section of your grill. last fall Krogers had it for the same price as the normal heavy duty foil. I wont buy it again for the full price. But, I can see the use for it if you want to do some small grilled items and dont want to buy a grill basket...which cost as much as a roll of foil ;)
As mentioned a good pair of tongs. For those in the U.K./EU get a pair of Rosle tongs
Then an aluminium table. It’s needs to be heat proof. Come on Jeremy, a table is essential. You even have your top ten things on......a table!
And for anyone not in a hot state of the USA for slow long cooks, a gazebo. If it can rain, cooking for 15 hours it probably will rain.
