Best BBQ Accessories for Summer 2026-27

Summer in Australia means one thing for barbecue owners: time to get your setup sorted. Whether you are replacing worn-out grill plates, upgrading to cast iron, or adding a rotisserie for Christmas entertaining, these are the accessories worth investing in before the season hits.

1. Cast Iron Grill Plates

If you are still cooking on the original grill plates that came with your Weber, chances are they are past their best. Factory plates, especially the porcelain enamel ones, chip and degrade after a few years of regular use.

Campaquip's cast iron grill plates are the most popular upgrade for a reason: they hold heat better, develop a natural non-stick seasoning, and cost half the price of Weber replacements. Available as singles for Weber Baby Q, Weber Q and Family Q.

Best for: Anyone whose grill plates are showing their age, or anyone wanting better searing performance.

2. Full Griddle Plate (Flat Plate)

A flat griddle plate turns your barbecue into a flat-top grill. Eggs, bacon, pancakes, stir fry, fried rice, anything that would fall through regular grill grates works perfectly on a griddle plate.

Campaquip's full griddle plates are available for every Weber model including the Baby Q, Weber Q, Family Q, Traveller and 57cm Kettle. Cast iron with a matt finish.

Best for: Breakfast lovers, families, anyone who cooks more than just steaks and sausages.

3. Half Grill, Half Griddle Combo

Why choose between grill and griddle when you can have both? The half grill, half griddle combo lets you cook steaks on the grill side while eggs and bacon sear on the flat side. One plate, two cooking styles.

Available for Baby Q, Weber Q and Family Q.

Best for: The indecisive cook, or anyone who wants maximum flexibility from one plate.

4. Rotisserie Kit

Spit-roasting is the easiest way to cook impressive food with almost no effort. Mount the rotisserie, load the spit, close the lid, and let it turn. Chicken, lamb, pork, even whole fish work beautifully.

Campaquip rotisserie kits are available for Weber Q (gas) and Weber 57cm Kettle (charcoal). Heavy-duty motor, adjustable spit, designed for easy mounting.

Best for: Christmas entertaining, Sunday roasts, anyone who wants to level up their barbecue game.

5. Mega-Flame Replacement Burner

If your Weber takes forever to heat up, has uneven flames, or the cooking temperature is not what it used to be, the burner is the most likely culprit. The Campaquip Mega-Flame burner is a direct replacement with an improved flame pattern for more even heat.

Available for Baby Q, Weber Q and Family Q.

Best for: Any gas Weber that is more than 2-3 years old, or showing signs of uneven heating.

6. Refurb Combo

Why replace your entire barbecue when you can replace just the parts that wear out? Campaquip refurb combos include 2 half grill plates, mounting seats, and a Mega-Flame burner: everything your Weber needs to perform like new.

A new Weber costs $500 or more. A refurb combo costs a fraction of that.

Best for: Anyone whose Weber frame and lid are still solid but whose internals are tired.

7. Charcoal Chimney Starter

The Mega-Heat chimney starter lights charcoal faster and more evenly than lighter fluid. No chemicals, no aftertaste, ready to cook in about 15 minutes. Essential for any charcoal barbecue owner.

8. Kettle Table Shelf

The Weber Kettle is great, but workspace is limited. The Campaquip Kettle Table Shelf clips onto the rim and gives you a solid surface for plates, tongs, and seasoning. Simple, useful, and surprisingly sturdy.
