Top 5 Grilling Gifts
1) Cross-Back Denim Apron

This denim apron takes a utilitarian approach to keeping you clean in the kitchen. Pure cotton denim is the aprons’ durable base, and there are perfectly-sized pockets for a notebook and pens. The cross-back construction opens up your range of motion and, because it doesn’t tie around the neck, it creates less stress there during long baking sessions.
2) Sports Memorabilia Turner Spatula

Sportula: Sports Memorabilia Turner Spatula
3) Brisket & Meat Trimmer

Trim fat like a pro. This Made in the USA brisket and meat trimmer slices through fat and silver skin quickly and easily thanks to a high-quality stainless steel blade and a sturdy handle. The tool’s design allows you to make parallel cuts while keeping one hand on the meat for improved safety. Perfect for both novice and professional cooks, and dishwasher safe.
4) Cowboy Fire Pit & Grill - 23"

Barebones Living: Cowboy Fire Pit & Grill - 23"
5) Olive Tree Adoption & Oil Assortment

This olive oil gift set comes with a story. By adopting an olive tree for a year, you’ll learn about the family-owned business that has been making pure, cold-pressed, extra virgin olive oil in Southern Italy for generations. (You’ll even get a snapshot of the grove!) And, of course, you will also get three tins of their classic oil flavors.
