Guest Picks: Get Your Game On With Fun Grilling Goods
Tailgate in style with grilling tools and accessories that everyone will flip for
I'll be the first to admit that I am no sports fan. Tailgating might be the only way to get me onboard, especially if there are bacon-wrapped hot dogs involved. It might still be a bit premature to be thinking about outdoor entertaining this early in the year, but that hasn't stopped me from window shopping some must-have grilling goods spiced with personality. Turn up that fire; it's time to party! — Kristin from The Cuisinerd
Rosle Dual-Functioning Mini Grill and Oven Thermometers
I'm a firm believer in owning several meat thermometers. This may or may not have anything to do with the fact that I'm always losing them — and then finding them again. These are colorful, fun and just the right price.
Fuego Element 21-Inch Dual-Zone Gas Grill, White
If there ever was a modern barbecue more perfect than this, please show me at once. This is a showstopper. I only imagine that a smoke machine and confetti cannons go off when you roll this beauty onto the scene.
Grill Plate
I know a few people who do not like side dishes mingling with their main ones. I might become one of those people if it means that I get to eat off of this stunner.
Retro Picnic Cooler, Yellow
Retro-inspired coolers might go on the top of my list of things that I don't need but want to collect. This guy is petite and yet will be the the center of attention at any barbecue.
Freaker Bottle Koozies
Who doesn't love a drink koozie? Who doesn't love one that also will fit over an entire bottle of wine? These cheeky socks are the perfect way to add some pop to the party while making sure no one's stealing your refreshment.
Standard Apron With Cloth Straps
Sure, you don't mind if the "Kiss the Cook" apron gets splattered with your award-winning barbecue sauce, but it's time to look dapper while flipping those burgers.
Fishtail Barbecue Basket
I've been on the hunt for a proper fish grilling basket. None possesses the personality of this fine chap. Is it strange that I might just want to hang him on the wall?
Exclusive Pushette Skewers
I love grilling skewers. Meat, vegetables, tofu — you name it, I will put it on a stick and eat it. This set is handsome, and I can see them moonlighting as marshmallow roasters as well.
Condiment Gun
I'm a firm believer that everyone should play with their food. While this looks like a mess waiting to happen, you know you'll be laughing the whole way through it.
Waltz Grill
These lovely grills will transform your yard into a public park that just got color-bombed with fun times. I can't even handle the cute factor here.
Parklane Double Glider, Tangerine
Does this not scream iced tea and a friend? This year is going to be all about more outdoor entertaining.
Hot-Pot Grill
What is it about me loving dual-purpose items? Grow herbs by day, and grill by night with this wonder. It seems silly and yet so perfect for someone with limited outdoor space.
8-Inch Round Plastic Fast Food Basket, Red
Plastic baskets are the easiest way to transform your barbecue into a Texas-worthy party. This reminds me of my first visit to The Salt Lick, and I want nothing more than to serve everything from these at my next gathering.
Picnic Time 18-Piece Barbecue Tool Set
This grill tool kit is rugged. In fact, he is the Stanley Thermos of all tool kits. He's one hot babe that I want by my side each and every time I light up that barbecue.
MYdrap Mustard Cotton Napkin Rolls
We all waste so much while entertaining. Paper plates and napkins just make so much more sense for a barbecue, but these reusable cotton napkins (on a roll) might just be paying a visit at my next fiesta.
SR White Oak Table Set
This beautiful creature has been on my wish list for some time. Modern, simple and made to order — God bless you, table! God bless your perfection!
Imm Living Anchors Aweigh Bottle Opener
Bottle openers are a dime a dozen. But not this one. I literally swooned when I saw it, and now I'm trying to figure out every possible reason to talk myself out of buying it.
Classic Accessories 64-Inch Camo Cart Grill Cover
Because you want to camouflage your grill when it goes to sleep at night, right?
