Father’s Day Finds for Dads who Love Food!

My dad loves to grill, but he already has a basic tool set for his barbecue. Luckily, there is a whole wide world of fun options for the dad that loves to cook! Here are a few of my finds [Spoiler Alert Mr. Nelson!]:

This elusive gift is one my dad has actually asked for, but I have never been able to find: the Charcoal Companion Ultimate Nonstick Fish-Grilling Basket with Removable Handle, available on Amazon.com. My dad was always frustrated with the fact that he couldn’t close his grill while using typical fish-grilling baskets because their handles were always hanging out – the removable handle on this one is genius.

This Williams-Sonoma Stainless Steel Smoker Box is pretty wizardly. With the Smoker Box, dad can change the grill out back into a mean, lean, smoking machine.

Dad can make the perfectly golden crispy fried chicken he loves right at home with this do-it-yourself fried chicken kit designed by famous chef, Thomas Keller: Thomas Keller Ad Hoc Fried Chicken Kit from Williams-Sonoma

Harry & David’s gift boxes are full of delicious treats that are perfect to have out during a BBQ, and the 4th of July is right around the corner! My favorite is the 19th Hole Wine Collection, and I think my dad will love it. Check out the other options on the Harry & David website.

You can’t go wrong with any one of these items for your culinary dad…Happy Father’s Day!
