Remote-check Wireless Thermometer

2 people recommended this item

Description

You can't roast a turkey and base it on the "recommended" time for cooking. The only reliable way of knowing when you're turkey is done is with a thermometer. This one lets you check temperature on two things at once (in case you have to make two turkeys), and also has a remote control so you don't HAVE to babysit the bird in the kitchen all day long.

Weber Style 2008 Carving and Serving Board

First to recommend

Description

Any old carving board won't work for your turkey is you roasted the turkey right - it's JUICY. The Weber Carving Board has a "well" where you can stabilize the bird, and grooves for catching the juices that run out when you carve it.

OXO Fat Separator

3 people recommended this item

Description

If you separate fat from the turkey drippings the way Mom does it - let the fat harden overnight in the fridge then lift off that 3-inch thick layer in the morning - you'll be having gravy a day late. The fat separator does it on the spot, and measure, to boot.

All-Clad Stainless Flat Whisk

First to recommend

Description

If you go the way of making gravy directly in the roasting pan over the stovetop, then you need the Cuisinart Flat Whisk to 1) scrape up the browned bits from the bottom and 2) whisk the flour or cornstarch into the hot liquid to thicken the gravy.

Cuisinart Chef's Classic Stainless Stockpot

First to recommend

Description

There's nothing better than throwing what's left of that roast turkey - the carcass - into a giant stockpot with vegetables and simmering all the flavor out of the bones, skin, and fat into a deep, rich, flavorful broth that you can freeze and use to make amazing soups all through winter. You need a giant stockpot for something as large as a turkey.

OXO Strainer

2 people recommended this item

Description

OXO makes great products that are more efficient and arm friendly, I can easily tire out my hands and arms with some tools. A sieve helps with taking the clumps out of flour and other powdery substances.

Easy Store Cutting Boards

5 people recommended this item

Description

When you have a hundred thousand different things happening at once in the kitchen, you'll be thankful when your cutting boards remember FOR you that you prepped the turkey on the yellow board and chopped vegetables for the salad on the green board.

OXO Salad Spinner

Description

For anyone who doesn't have a Salad Spinner, you need to put it on your wish list. Honestly, it is amazing. It used to take me hours to dry lettuce and other leafy greens, with a Salad Spinner it literally takes minutes!

Cuisinart SmartStick 200

Description

I the model that came out before this one and its amazing. I make pesto, sauces, smoothies, pina coladas and salad dressing with it. Crushes ice with ease and its less clean up than a blender. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. (via Amazon)

Bambu 13" Tasting Spoon

First to recommend

Description

I had no idea there was a specific spoon just for tasting whatever it is you're simmering away in the pot. This one is made from 100% organic bamboo so you don't have to feel bad when you're sticking it down in your Roasted Butternut Squash Soup.
