Hamilton Beach 3-in-1 Griddle
$48.99 CAD from Amazon.ca
Enjoy almost unlimited meal choices from one amazingly adaptable appliance. This multifunctional grill/griddle offers three times the grilling options and two times the heating controls as the typical indoor grill.
You can use it as a grill, as a griddle or as a grill and a griddle at the same time. Now you can cater to different tastes and cook multiple foods at once thanks to two separate cooking areas, each with its own temperature control. The 3-In-One Grill/Griddle doesn’t cut corners when it comes to your health, either.

The 'regeneration diets' used by cancer patients and arthritics—along with an inspiring cookbook with more than 300 mostly vegetarian, nutrient-packed recipes!
Williams-Sonoma Smart Thermometer
$199.95 CAD at Williams-Sonoma
The smart thermometer is the first Wi-Fi-enabled leave-in probe, which you connect via Williams-Sonoma’s app for iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch. Both the temperature and estimated remaining cooking time are displayed on your mobile device, so you’re free to check it anywhere within the connected Wi-Fi range.
You can also schedule separate timers for side dishes and alerts for tasks like basting so everything gets to the table on time. It is guaranteed to make life easier this holiday!
Remember folks, this is a present for them, not you, even if you’ve got a hankering for his/her secret recipe!
