REVIEW – I have never had the opportunity to cook with a wireless meat thermometer, so I was very excited to test out the ARMEATOR ONE Smart Bluetooth Wireless Meat Thermometer when it arrived at my doorstep. Would this wireless thermometer work when my grill is closed? Could it take the heat, so to speak? …

REVIEW – Summer is officially here in South Texas, and for me and my family, that means BBQ! I am not talking about tossing some hamburgers on the grill or loading up your kettle grill with charcoal and grilling up a steak. I am talking about hours of slow-cooking a big chunk of meat into …

REVIEW – A few years ago, a friend gave me a FoodSaver vacuum sealer she never used. I barely knew what one was, but accepted it anyway because it is a . . . gadget. I am glad I did. If you aren’t familiar with what a sealer can do, it literally sucks the air …

REVIEW – I cook with thermometers all the time because I don’t trust my skills. One day, the sleek Typhur InstaProbe thermometer popped up in my social media feeds. It LOOKS pretty neat but is it good enough to dethrone my reliable Thermoworks Thermapen One? What is it? The Typhur InstaProbe is a battery-operated thermometer …

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – When I was contacted by DREO to see if I would like to test their ChefMaker Combi Fryer, I had to check the company name again because the DREO I know makes heaters, fans, and air purifiers. But now they also make air fryers so let’s take a look at the DREO …

REVIEW – When it comes to serious blending of ingredients in our kitchen, there’s no doubt that our Blendtec blender is the tool of choice. There’s no blending task that it can’t handle. Some recipes, however, don’t really require that kind of power, and it would be handy to have a smaller, hand blender available. …

REVIEW – I’ve been looking for a replacement for an ancient Nutribullet blender and a large Ninja blender. When it was offered for review, I was curious if the GANIZA Food Processor could be my new small food processor so I said yes. Let’s check it out. What is it? The GANIZA Food Processor is …
REVIEW – I’m a pretty good cook but I always use a thermometer to roast meat. Life is way too short to eat overdone meat or to spend a few days wishing for death because the meat was undercooked. When I saw the Siyoteam wireless meat thermometer I had to try it! A leave-in wireless …
REVIEW – They say you should never buy groceries when you are hungry. I’m not sure the same when reviewing items, but it didn’t hurt. This time I get to make lunch with the VEVOR Commercial Sandwich Panini Press Grill. What is it? This panini press is equipped with a cast iron grill covered in …

REVIEW – Mmmmmmm smoked chicken! I love to make smoked meats on my pellet grill. A whole chicken was one of the first things I ever made on it. It is a cheaper piece of meat compared to brisket, so I figured if I messed it up, it would not cost me as much. The …
NEWS – I have reviewed two of Ooni’s pizza ovens for the Gadgeteer. Both were fantastic at producing restaurant-quality pizza in 90 seconds. But both of those ovens were strictly for outdoor use. Recently the company introduced the Ooni Volt 12. The Volt 12 is an all-electric versatile pizza oven for indoor or outdoor use. …

REVIEW – Cooking is a messy business. Deliciousness usually means splashes and splatters and that leads to tons of cleanup. If only there was a way to contain all those splatters while still giving you access to the yum in the pan. Welcome to the SplatterDōm! What is it? SplatterDōm is a food-grade silicone lid …
