Top 5 Grilling Gifts
1) 5-in-1 Steel Scissors
Glide these tempered steel, multipurpose scissors through virtually anything. Their soft, fitted grip and curved blades are made to last and accommodate lefties and righties alike. With built-in features to crack nuts, crush garlic, open bottles, and strip wire, these heavy-duty blades are definitely the sharpest tool in the shed, kitchen, office, garage . . .
2) Pizza Oven for Charcoal Grill
This stainless steel insert transforms your charcoal grill into a grill top pizza oven. It sits on the grill grate and is designed to maintain and circulate heat (from a combination of charcoal and hardwood) to cook a crispy pizza in about five minutes.
3) Pellet Grill Magnetic Shelf
This magnetic pellet grill shelf doubles (and then some) the storage space on a hopper surface, adding more room for tools, sauces, plates and more. It firmly and quickly attaches to the grill while still providing access to the hopper. Made with rust-resistant, powder-coated steel.
4) Original Round Cutting Board
The wood from this self-healing, end grain cutting board is harvested and assembled in a small, Nova Scotia mill. They cut it to expose the intricate patterns and gradients of the growth rings. But besides the aesthetic benefits, the fibers are lined vertically to close and heal after you’ve cut them. That keeps knives sharper and your board cleaner. It even has rubber feet to prevent moisture from getting trapped. With proper care and seasoning, this heirloom Larch Wood board will last you a lifetime.
5) Multi-Use Food Tongs
This one-handed tool allows you to whisk, grab, and serve with ease. Turn over any shape of food, remove it from boiling water or hot oil, or plate your final dish. Folds flat and locks for easy storage.
