    What has been suggested here is a great start. After a few cooks and reading the forum you will soon learn what accessories you will want to pick up.

    Don't forget to pick up some staarter cubes or learn to use the oil/napkin for starting the lump.

    A lot of us are assuming you will be getting some accessories with your purchase to include lump.

    I use the grill extender more than anything else. The V-Rack is probably second. Altho I do use the platesetter, if I want an indirect cook most times I just use a drip pan. But with the place setter, you can then use the pizza stone. A grill grabber comes in handy. At first I started fires with the fire starter cubes, but soon switched to a weed burner. Its faster and more fun than the starter cubes.
