PALATINE, Ill., June 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Weber-Stephen Products LLC, the world's leading manufacturer of outdoor gas, charcoal, and electric grills and grilling accessories, introduced more than 25 new accessories for 2012—the largest accessories launch in the company's 60-year history.
"Consumers are grilling much more than burgers and chicken today—and they are looking for quality tools and a greater range of accessories to have the versatility to cook any meal on the outdoor grill," said Trace Weskamp, Director of Accessories Product Development, Weber-Stephen Products LLC.
