TurkeyTech: Kitchen Gadgets Decrease Cooking Time, Increase Football Time

by Caleb Johnson on November 25, 2009 at 06:51 PM

Any fool knows that the centerpiece of a perfect Thanksgiving dinner is a giant, moist, whole turkey. But while anybody knows that fact, it takes a special kind of anybody to actually cook a bird to perfection. There's temperature and time to worry about, and you absolutely can't skimp on the basting, let alone the dressing. Lucky for us, there's a plethora of gadgets out there to help make up for our lack of skills in the kitchen. Just don't tell our moms. They'll say using technology is cheating.

DVICE has compiled a helpful list of eight kitchen gadgets that should make your holiday run a little smoother. Unfortunately, there's no gadget that keeps your uncle from drinking too much wine, or warns you when those uninvited relatives are coming over. But there are electric indoor turkey fryers that can cook a 14-pound bird to golden perfection. Short on time? Try the NuWave infrared oven, which can cook a 10-pound turkey in two hours. Of course, you'll need accessories, like these turkey-lifting claws or these easy to read pop-up thermometers, to pull off a feast fit for a king.

Even if the dinner goes awry, don't get too down in the dumps. Remember, there are plenty of Black Friday gadget deals to make you feel better. [From: DVICE]
