Need a little helping thinking of a gift idea for the important guys in your life? I’ve made this men’s food and kitchen gift guide because the guys in my family aren’t the Amazon echo dot and designer dress pants types.

My grandpa loves coffee, my dad and father-in-law have smokers and love to grill, and the way to my husband’s heart was definitely through his stomach.

Every men’s gift guide I’ve ever found couldn’t have been further from what the men in my life would want under the tree. These guys like to eat!

I’ve compiled a list of a ton of things I’ve gifted to my carnivores and coffee lovers, and some my husband uses right in our kitchen!

George Foreman Grill

While most would prefer using a real grill outside, there’s some days its just not in the cards. Rain or shine, a George Foreman grill is the best way to get some grill lines in the comfort of your kitchen. Just close the lid and your burger, chicken breast, etc. is getting heat from both sides, so it cooks super fast!

My favorite thing about George Foreman grills is that they’re angled so the drippings roll off into the reservoir- instead of your burger or chicken just sitting there in it! We make chicken, burgers, grilled sandwiches and more on these.

RTIC Products

I’ve used RTIC tumblers for years and buy them for friends and family every holiday season. They’re affordable, durable, and keep your drink hot or cold for SO long!

Besides the classic tumbler, there are several other styles that make great gifts. The travel coffee mug has a handle and is perfect for sipping on the go. It comes in 3 sizes and 20 colors!

They have regular sized water bottles, and half gallon and one gallon water jugs!

If you’re on a bigger budget, their coolers are highly rated too! They’re a fraction of the price of the other guys and they have everything from lunchbox sized soft coolers to huge hard sided styles.

Koffie Straws

I swear by these reusable “Koffie” straws for homemade hot coffee! They keep your teeth white and have held up for YEARS of daily use for me.

There are several colors, and it comes in two sizes. I mostly drink coffee from a 20 oz RTIC tumbler, and the shorter straw is the perfect length for it. I snip the bottom of the longer straw with a pair of scissors to fit these cups and you can’t even tell!

Table Saw Pizza Slicer

Have a pizza loving handyman in your life? This table saw pizza cutter is perfect! I prefer this style of pizza cutter over the traditional long handled ones, and this novelty pizza cutter is no different. Snag this to use with my two ingredient pizza dough recipe, or homemade BBQ chicken pizza!

Stuffed Burger Press

For guys who like to experiment on the grill, this stuffed burger press is a great idea! Stuff patties with cheese, onions, bacon, and more with this handy press. Pair this with the George Foreman grill I mentioned above!

Meat Thermometer System For Smoker Or Grill

For any guy with a smoker, this meat thermometer is the perfect gift. It allows you to have a monitor the temperature of the meat in the smoker while inside in the warmth of the living room. This thermometer has over 16,000 reviewers on Amazon!

The monitor connected to the probes sits on top or beside the smoker or grill. The second monitor is wireless, so he can keep an eye on the temperature without having to babysit the smoker! Whether he wants to go back inside to get out of the weather, or hop in a game of corn-hole while he waits, this meat thermometer system is the way to go.

My dad has one of these, so I’ve seen it in action! He smokes several kinds of meat on holidays like memorial day and Christmas. Instead of sitting outside with the smoker or running out in the snow or heat to check every five minutes, he can hang out with all of us inside until it’s done!

There are wireless thermometers to fit into many price ranges out there, like this cheaper one.

BBQ “Bear Paws”

These bear paws are a must have for anybody that smokes pork or chicken they plan to shred. Forks are alright for the job, but no comparison to these bear paws!

Gourmet Seasonings

There are a ton of great places to get gourmet seasoning blends for pork, beef, chicken, and more. If you have a guy in your life that loves to grill, these are perfect.

JB’s Gourmet Spice Blends, spices formulated by an award winning pit-master!

MeatEater Spice Blends, by Steven Rinella from the MeatEater TV show (on Netflix!) and podcast. This guy knows his game!

Flavorgod Spice Blends, by far the most variety out of the three, Flavorgod even has seasonings for coffee!

MeatEater Cookbooks

Steven Rinella has several cookbooks as well as his seasoning! I gifted The MeatEater Fish and Game Cookbook to my dad for his birthday this year and he loved it.

His others include two versions of The Complete Guide to Hunting, Butchering, and Cooking Wild Game: Volume 1: Big Game and Volume 2: Small Game and Fowl.

Black Rifle Coffee

Black Rifle Coffee is a veteran owned gourmet coffee company that I’ve gifted for years!

They have a huge variety of coffee types and flavors, apparel, and even a subscription service. I gifted the complete mission fuel set last fathers day, which has 4 varieties of grounds.

Black Rifle has K-Cups, whole beans, espresso grounds, ready to drink cans, cold brew packets and more!

Victorinox Chef’s Knife

We bought this Victorinox chef’s knife over 6 months ago and I have no complaints! I’ve used this 5-6 days a week since and it’s by far the sharpest knife I’ve ever had. I use it for meat, vegetables, watermelons, you name it!

Instant Pot

This one needs no introduction! An Instant Pot is great for a guy that likes fast and easy meals, or that meal preps. While there are tons of recipes for these machines now, we use ours most often for rice and to make shredded chicken.

We have the 6 quart which is great for just the two of us, but there’s an 8 quart size as well.

Whiskey Ice Cubes

There are tons of unique ice molds on Amazon for your whiskey guy! This set of two sphere molds, or this one that can make six cubes and six spheres is a great option too.

For funnier options, try this mold that makes ice in the shape of the death star, this skull mold, or this one that makes ice in the shape of a grenade!

Rapid Mixer

We have a rapid mixer we use daily for protein powder and other drink mixes. This is one of those things you don’t know how you lived without once you get it! Check out the 30,000+ reviews on Amazon!

Happy Shopping!

The men in my life deserve the world. Even though they say “nothing” when I ask what they want for Christmas, I love to see the look on their faces when they open a meaningful gift. Happy shopping!
