The Best Kitchen Gadgets For Thanksgiving

best kitchen gadgets for Thanksgiving graphic

Hey friends! It's time to take stock of any kitchen tools and gadgets you might need to make your Thanksgiving dinner preparation go more smoothly. I've created a list of some of my favorites for you to check out!

1
Mueller 10-in-1 Vegetable Slicer & Chopper
I'm thankful for this veggie slicer and chopper *every* day, but I'm even more thankful for it when I'm trying to make stuffing for Thanksgiving. It's truly a kitchen work horse!!
SHOP NOW
2
Restaurant Quality Food Storage Containers with Lids
These food storage containers come in hand both during Thanksgiving meal prep and when storing leftovers after the meal. They're leakproof, microwavable, AND super inexpensive. Plus, they're ideal for sending leftovers home with guests!

3
Stackable Glass Bowl Set
This mixing bowl set boasts 10 different sizes, and I'm pretty sure I use every. single. one. of them (and then some) when prepping for Thanksgiving! They're by far one of the most-used items in my kitchen.

4
OXO Good Grips Stainless Steel Potato Ricer
Using a potato ricer is my secret to deliciously dreamy and creamy mashed potatoes!! (Along with a good measure of cream cheese and sour cream.)
SHOP NOW
5
OXO Good Grips Spring-Loaded Poultry Shears
The spring-loaded handle and sharp blades on these poultry shears make prepping your Thankgiving turkey simple! They feature a suction cup to keep them securely on the counter away from small hands. When you're done with them, you can separate the handles and toss them in the dishwasher.

6
Lavatools Digital Instant Read Meat Thermometer
A digital meat thermometer is ideal for knowing when meat is cooked properly, making it a lifesaver on Thanksgiving when you're aiming for that fried turkey sweet spot of fully cooked but not too dry!
SHOP NOW
7
Hamilton Beach Electric Knife
Carving a turkey is ever so much easier with an electric knife. This model is *super* affordable and comes with a serving fork and a convenient storage case.
SHOP NOW
8
OXO Good Grips 4-cup Fat Separator
A fat separator is a MUST for making a delicious turkey gravy. This one keeps all of the flavor while leaving the fat behind! Plus the strainer on top keeps out any unwanted bits and pieces.
SHOP NOW
9
Adjustable Wood Rolling Pin with Thickness Rings
This rolling pin is supremely helpful when making rolled pie crusts and/or sugar cookies. Roll them to the perfect thickness every single time!!
SHOP NOW
10
iSi Gourmet Whip Cream Whipper
I won't lie – the iSi Gourmet Whipped Cream Whipper IS a bit pricey... But if you love fresh whipped cream for desserts and coffees, it's TOTALLY worth it! Don't forget to add a pack of N2O chargers to your cart, as they're not included.
SHOP NOW
11
3-Tier Non-Stick Oven Rack
Create more space in your oven for all those Thanksgiving side dishes with this nifty 3-tier oven rack! I love that it folds flat for storage when you're not using it.

Hi! I'm Tara.

nice to meet you!

I'm an almost empty-nester just trying to figure out how much to cook for dinner! My husband Luke and I live in Ohio with a varying number of our 5 kids on any given day, but a little oceanfront bungalow is our dream. My fave things include cooking + baking (obvs!), beach days, my JEEP Wrangler 392XR, and a cold paloma drink…
