Kitchen Gifts for Game Day

If you're not planning a party for Game Day, chances are somebody you know is. Get the host a kitchen gift he'll really appreciate (and use at least once a year) by considering how he could use it at a Superbowl party.

One staple of good Game Day parties is a slow cooker. Perfect for cooking thick chilis, moist meat for shredding, or barbeque sausages, the versatile slow cooker can make main dishes and appetizers for the party and keep them warm for the duration of the game. For the host who likes perfectly cooked meats but doesn't want to grill in February, consider a programmable slow cooker with a probe thermometer, like the Hamilton Beach 33967 Set 'n Forget 6-quart Programmable Slow Cooker. This model features a the traditional manual mode with High and Low settings, a program mode that cooks for a specific amount of time, and a unique probe mode that cooks until the food reaches a certain temperature, which it knows thanks to the included probe thermometer. The Hamilton Beach 33967 can easily hold a whole chicken and other large roasts and cuts.

If a slow cooker isn't quite what you had in mind for a Superbowl party host gift, consider other Game Day entertaining options such as team-specific serving trays and grilling utensils.
