Slow cookers are slow, right? That’s okay; they are supposed to be. While they are sitting their doing their thing, flavors are developing into a deep, rich structure that is often well worth the wait. But that waiting can take from morning til night.
In anticipation of all day cooking, what better way than to think ahead and prepare with a nocturnal buddy? The Owl Pattern Crock-Pot Slow Cooker is a basic slow cooker with a fun, whimsical owl-themed design. Will it make for better food as an end result? Who knows?
There comes a time in every hot dog’s existence that it comes time to be eaten. Some enjoy a long, extended life, perpetually spinning on some Kwik-E-Mart hot dog rack. Others succumb to a fate where existence ends in a blink of an eye. Or, more specifically, the blink of hot dog eating contest champion Joey Chestnut’s eyes. Last year, the man ate 61 hot dogs and he holds the record for eating 69 hot dogs. He has won eight years in a row. That’s a lot of hot dogs!
It’s probably not a good idea to try to keep pace this Fourth of July — and I doubt many of you have 70 hot dogs for each person hanging out in the fridge — but there is a benefit (actually many) to eating hot dogs the good old fashioned way: hot dog buns!
Th Knox Hot Dog Steamer with 2 Bun Warmers is a home hot dog maker that also warms hot dog buns. The funny-looking kitchen gadget cooks a batch of six hot dogs in about eight minutes. That’s not fast enough to keep up with our nation’s hot dog champs, but consider that a good thing!
***Update*** What?! They eat the buns too in these contests? Insanity. Please ignore the above and instead pretend there is a joke about cooking six hot dogs for only two buns.
Do you have a kitchen? Does it have drawers in it? Of course it does. Do those drawers have hot dogs in them? Probably not. But they could.
The Smart Planet HDS1 Steam-O-Matic Red Hot Dog Steamer upgrades the contents of kitchen drawers from boring old utensils to exciting and delicious steamed hot dogs. The appliance lives on the kitchen counter and requires only a twist of the on/off dial to operate. Fill with water, wieners and buns and within five minutes you could be chowing down on a delicious hot dog.
Who ever said kitchen remodeling had to be a lengthy process? Five minutes is more like it!
The kitchen counter is used for many things. Sure, cooking and prep work occurs there on a daily basis, but it also becomes a platform for other things. No, not various kitchen tasks like emptying out the junk drawer or putting things in jars (both noble pursuits). The kitchen counter happens to be a great place to put that delivery pizza box. Now, since the pizza box’s natural environment is the kitchen countertop, it only makes sense to make it a permanent home.
The CuiZen PIZ-4012 Pizza Box Oven is a lidded pizza oven with a cooking platter that rotates. Designed for pizzas up to 12 inches, the simple to use countertop appliance features a timer and temperature control. It makes so much sense to find such an item at home on the kitchen countertop it may be tempting to buy two. However, try to resist the temptation; they probably don’t stack too well.
Everybody seems to like the ‘Walking Dead’ television show (except when they kill off the ‘wrong’ characters), even appliance product descriptions like this portable mini-fridge. Of course, it doesn’t say anything about zombies, but I think we all know. Judge for yourself from this product description:

Of course, zombies have been immersed in popular culture for decades. It’s even got to the point where zombies may or may not exist. However, no matter if you are fighting off hordes of the undead, or just kicking back on a Saturday evening, a nice drink in hand deserves to be chilled. And if you are drinking the famous tiki drink named the zombie, you’ll need a place to store all those ingredients.
Happy big game day! Not only is it the Super Bowl of football (and television commercials), but it is also the Super Bowl of the snack food! Best (and worst) food day since Thanksgiving.
If you’re hosting a Super Bowl party, be sure to have both teams represented on the living room table. Whether you are rooting for Patriot’s red or Seahawk’s green, having food to match is but one way to ensure parity at the viewing party. Of course, beware what you serve around those Patriot’s fans; there’s a good chance they’ll let all the air out of a spinach souffle.
