AmazonTaking charge of the grill isn’t easy.
You have to keep an eye out for open flames and make sure all of your poultry, patties, and vegetables are cooked to perfection, because nobody wants to bite into an overly-charred burger or drumstick.
The last thing you should worry about after cooking a delicious meal is cleaning up, so why not invest in a grill mat?
A grill mat sits on top of your grill’s grates, and keeps melted cheese or pieces of anything you’re cooking from oozing through the grates and making a mess. You’ll still need to wipe the mat down, but that’s a lot easier than scrubbing your grill after each use.
KONA’s Best BBQ Grill Mat is among the highest-rated mats you can buy for your upcoming barbecues. It’s durable enough to hold everything from sausage links to chicken kebabs. Plus, it can withstand temperatures of up to 600 degrees. A lot of these mats can only be used a handful of times before they start to show any wear, but Kona’s can reportedly survive over 1,000 uses per side.
With a 4.7/5 rating on Amazon after nearly 2,800 reviews, KONA’s mat is a #1 best seller in the “grill toppers” category for good reason:
“These mats have changed the way I grill,” one commenter wrote. “I primarily use them for grilling vegetables like onions, mushrooms, asparagus or zucchini. I also use them for scallops. These mats will eliminate the need for grilling baskets or bowls which are impossible to clean. I still primarily cook my burgers and steaks directly on the grill but I have also seared them on the grill and then moved them to the grill mat to finish the cooking, particularly when they are thick.”
“I highly recommend these [mats] to anyone who has a grill,” said another.
If you’re planning on spending a lot of time around the grill this summer, you’ll wonder how you ever cooked without this mat.
