I host a couple of big meals each year and Thanksgiving is one of those meals. With things being so busy, one of my biggest times savers is shopping online for Kitchen and Hosting tools that will allow me to work smarter. That way I can spend my time creating a mouth watering meal everyone will love. What is also great is these tools can be used for your everyday cooking too! So you get time saving year around.

Ruth's Holiday Helpers

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11

	1. Portable Warming Tray This is on my wish list! I love the fact you can place your hot food on the tray and keep it warm as you serve your buffet. No more cold food!
2. MEATER Pro This is a must have in my kitchen! I've had one now for 3 years and I own 2. MEATER takes the guesswork out of cooking meat to perfection with its user-friendly app that helps you track temperature, estimate cook time, know when your meat is done, and even how long to rest. Everyone raves about how great my turkey is at Thanksgiving it's 100% because I use a MEATER Pro.
	3. Deep Turkey Cutting Board You are going to need a cutting board that can handle all the amazing juices that come out of your perfectly cooked turkey. This cutting board is the perfect size for handling any large turkey.
4. Orange Casserole Dish Set No need for extra decoration when you use these gorgeous orange casserole dishes to serve up your next side dish.
	5. Mini knitted Pumpkins Pumpkins are all the rage for thanksgiving. I love using these simple small pumpkins scattered around the table. They would look adorable with the Orange Casserole Dishes!
6. Linen Apron Every year I spill something on myself as I'm preparing Thanksgiving dinner. This year I'm pulling out the aprons and isn't this not only so cute but I love the pockets!
	7. Typhur InstaProbe Core I'm all about food safety and taking the temperature of my food before I serve a crowd. This probe thermometer is exactly the type of thermometer I used when I was a food inspector for the state. I love that it is User Friendly ▪ It has an external temperature switch button and temperature lock button ▪ it's designed so the probe is stored away so no stabbing yourself when it's sitting in the drawer. Another big plus is it's Fast Reading ≤ 0.5s Response Time this way your not hanging out over a hot stove longer than you need. Accuracy of ±0.5°F / Certified by NIST
8. Portable Casserole Carrier It's perfect for carrying Hot or Cold Foods. I love mine and use it all the time to keep foods hot for cover dish suppers we go to.
	9. Turkey Brine Bag No more fighting to fit your turkey into a pot or pan to brine. I love these bags. They are thick and stay closed. I've used them for wet brines and dry rubs.I found them last year and they were a total game changer for me.
10. All Clad Turkey Roaster I use this for not only roasting turkey but it is also great for Roasting beef or Pork. I love the handles making it easy to life a 15lb turkey out of an oven.
	11. Kosmos Q Turkey Brine Last year I decided to make my life easier and instead of making some big recipe for a turkey rub or brine I bought this! It was delicious and such a time saver. No more buying a million different spices. Just this bag and your good to go and everyone will rave about your turkey.
