Grilling is just as much a part of Americana as apple pie, marching bands, and the Fourth of July.
No matter who mans the grill in your home, they deserve some fantastic gifts that make it easier to cook for the family.
You may not have considered all of these items, but they can be quite helpful when you’re trying to buy something for the person who has everything.
Consider each of the grilling gifts and kitchen utensils listed below and remember that combo packages are exciting, adding that last gem to the tool chest is helpful, and personalization is downright fun.
Personalized Aprons
Kitchen gadgets are a lot of fun, but a personalized apron is a hammer-blow of a gift that can speak to the recipient’s personality, giving them something wonderful they will use for the rest of time.
Some people will go for a funny phrase or saying, but others might make the apron much more professional, as if you have a Michelin-starred chef in the house.
Remember that if you go with an apron, you should buy two or three so that there’s no heartache if something happens to one of them.
Heavy fabric is preferred. Look out for aprons that are pre-shrunk and that can be tossed in the washing machine so that there’s no need to worry about a few grease marks here and there.
Add Up the Kitchen Supplies
Grillers tend to have a whole set of utensils and supplies they only use outside. You don’t want to use rough-and-tumble grilling gear on your nice pans, but you also don’t want to use the delicate tools from your kitchen on the grill.
Generally, the tools below are perfect for all grilling enthusiasts:
- Grill scraper or pumice stone
- Heavy-duty tongs
- Heavy duty spatula
- Long-handled meat fork
- Metal skewers
Think Beyond Standard Cooking Utensils
If you want to give them a griller in your life more than simple cooking equipment, you should think outside the box.
There are several fun items on the market that grill masters could use every time they head outside. Some of these are obvious, but others are fun, unique, or just plain charming:
- A personalized brick for reheating or keeping enclosed containers warm
- A stainless steel cloche for covering certain foods
- Hamburger pressing tools that cover several patties
- Stainless steel pans for sautéing vegetables
- Electronic thermometer with a probe
- Chimney starter for heating and keeping charcoal warm
- Personalized hand towels
Food Storage and Management for the Grill
Every griller deserves to have special serving plates and trays for the patio or deck.
These items can also be personalized, or you might select a set that closely matches your dining room dinnerware.
Go for melamine or plastic plates and cups, hefty forks, spoons, and knives, and even a personalized mug for the grill master.
Some families even keep a refrigerator on the deck or patio to store meat and other perishable items during long parties or cookouts.
There’s no need to purchase a massive appliance, but a mini fridge or large cooler will be quite helpful.
Moreover, you might add special ice packs that freeze faster, stay cold for longer, and prevent food from spoiling or sweating.
