Thanks to Old Dave's and other's posts using the Cobb Grill I decided to add this charcoal cooker.

Art,

Glad to hear that and I hope you will like the new cooker. Be more than happy to give you a hand with any questions that you may have with the cooker. Would love to see more folks using this fine little cooker.

Fwiw, I talked to Cornelia (the only distributor in the US) yesterday, and she told me that she has a large shipment coming in at the end of August that will restock her very depleted warehouse. There are some folks that are waiting for some of the accessories including myself as I can't hardly do without the tin foil liners for the Cobb. Cobb also has a new pizza stone that looks great to me and I want one along with a couple of other accessories.

I do post most of my cooks and exploits with the cooker on this site but for the folks that may need to see what all I have done with this little cooker, I have 70 different cooks on my site if anyone would want to see just what I have done with the cooker. http://olddavespo-farm.blogspot.com  Select Cobb Grill in the index

Thanks all.
The only accessories I have so far is the Grill which I will up grade to Grill Grates and the Fenced Roasting Rack.
The question is what accessories are essential, what are nice to have and what are a waste???

With the Grill Grates and the roasting rack, you already have a couple of the best accessories for the grill.



The dome extension ring with the chicken roasting stand is one of the better accessories to have for the cooker. It will allow you to do some larger items like maybe a ham, beer butt chicken, turkey breast, pizza, bread, biscuits, and a few more items where you need to get what you are cooking raised in the cooker to prevent the bottom of the item to burn before the top would get done or browned etc. Two of these extensions are required for making a rotisserie setup for the grill which in my opinion is one great accessory to have on any backyard cooker.



Of course, the disposable inner sleeves (tin foil liners) are hard to do without as they make clean-up much easier. They can be washed.



The BBQ / Open Fire Grill Set with Wide Fire Grid is another nice option especially the larger charcoal basket. I find that I use that basket for about 75% of all my cooks. The cooking grid is nice in that it will allow some of the drippings from what you are grilling go down and into the coals for that additional flavor that comes with real bbq cooking. Your Grill Grate setup will also allow this as well in most cases. I also use this grid for my raised rotisserie cooking but I could live without it.





Ok, one or the other of these two accessories is nice to have. The top one is the Cobb Skillet or non-stick frying pan.

The second picture is the Deep Dish / Wok. I have both of these accessories and find that I can do about anything equally as good or close to it in either of these two accessories.

Fry an egg, make pancakes, French toast, fried cornbread, fried mush, fried veggies, and many other items are great in one of these two accessories. However, only one is good for soups, stew, and other treats with some liquid in them.

I guess if I had to choose only one, I would take the Deep Dish / Wok. It doesn't fry an egg as well as it is all Stainless and doesn't have the non-stick surface.



This accessory is not required if you own the Grill Grates. It is called the Cobb Griddle. I didn't own it before I got the Grill Grates because I thought it was way overpriced for what it does and what it costs.

I have another 6-8 accessories that a fellow can make with over the counter items that make cooking on this grill much better and more fun. Items like a 3 pound meat loaf pan with a removable insert, several muffin tins. a couple of cake pans, a second raised cooking grid made from a cooling rack, and others.

Thank you so much, OD for the excellent advice pertaining to accessories. 
Grill Grates and extension on the way.
I have, of course, read your blog about not only the Cobb Grill but the humungous amount of information about cookers of all types and recipes.

Now it is a matter of determining how many briquettes to use for temperature and time.

Great cooking for the two of us.
