| It's Father's Day, and we hope you're enjoying a Sunday full of family & friends. You may even have gotten the chance to spend some time with the "old man" out by the grill. Notice anything missing? It's not too late to add a little flash to a summer full of Father's fiery feasts. Here are our top 5 grilling gadgets and accessories that are fun, durable and practical.

 | Deep Dish
Weber's deep grilling basket has long been a bellwether on our list of recommendations for cooks looking for control of unruly foods. Its slotted design and solid construction provide even heat and put it at the top of our list for grilling sliced vegetables. This basket tops our list for grilling shrimp as well as sliced veggies like squash and bell peppers.

 | Pepper Position
This jalapeno holder from Modern Home Products is the perfect tool to keep your potent peppers upright while you load 'em with goodies. Our favorite is a combo of mozzarella and (precooked) bacon chunks – which is a serious mess without the proper hardware.

 | Flat & Happy
If you have the cooking real estate, Weber's flat grill pan is for you. It has the same slotted design as the deep basket, but gives you room to spread out. This is our go-to for small red potatoes as well as sliced onions, and it's a must to save asparagus from plunging into the depths of your grill.

 | Well Done
This folding pocket thermometer is another contribution from the king of backyard grilling glory. There's a lot to like here – its only 4" folded, reads quickly and lights up with the push of a button. We have it for $24.99, but it's our favorite thermometer for under $50.

|
 | Scrub-a-Dub
Rounding out our top five is this three-sided grill brush that has been a hit with our customers for years. Weber's design provides a great method to clear stubborn leftovers from between grate bars, and its long handle helps keep your knuckles away from the heat.

Happy Father's Day
We hope it was a day full of laughter, family and fun. Days like this are great to give us all perspective on what's really important in life.
We'll see you at the grill.
