Let’s admit that we all have slurped at the mention of grilled chicken, roasted veggies in hot garlic sauce, and grilled fish in butter sauce. These are some of the most delicious dishes that can melt anyone’s heart at their mere mention. Moreover, they also require bare minimum ingredients for preparation. The technique of grilling or roasting is also such that it needs very little or no oil, making the food ideal for guilt-free indulgence (or low-calorie diet). In these methods of cooking, the meats and vegetables are prepared on high heat, which reduces the cooking time and keeps the nutrients intact in our meal.
However, for a successful end result of grilling and roasting, one needs to make sure that the kitchen is equipped with the right kind of tools and appliances. This can help make the process a lot easier and hassle-free. If you are confused about what appliances or tools you may need to grill or roast your dishes at home, we’ve curated a list of some of the important ones that can help you prepare everything - from kebabs to tandoori treats - in your own kitchen.
1. Mini Cast Iron Wok
A cast iron wok is one that doesn’t only grill or roast, but is also useful for a variety of purposes in the kitchen. With a flat bottom and sloped sides, a cast iron wok makes for an ideal tool to sear, saute, bake, broil, braise, fry, or grill.

2. Barbecue Metal Grilling Skewers
Can you imagine grilling or roasting without the use of skewers? You can grill almost anything on a skewer, from meat and seafood to veggies and fruit. Metal skewers are often preferred for the cooking as they are durable, reusable, and won't catch fire. Hence, a stainless-steel skewer with heat-resistant wooden handle makes for an ideal option for holding enough food to grill/roast and serve some delicious kebabs and tandoori items.

4. Tongs
Just like a spatula is necessary for whisking in the kitchen, a sturdy pair of tongs can take your grilling game to another level. A good pair of tongs can help flip the food easily, while also providing a strong enough grip for items like steak.
