Get a Staub Tall Cocotte, 5 QT ($200 - $220, was $486 - $514) →
Get a nice cast-iron grill to fit on your stove, and you can start making your burgers, chicken, and immaculately charred ricotta toast for anyone who chooses (wisely) to enter your home this summer. This is, perhaps, the most attractive grill we’ve seen.
Get a Le Creuset Bistro Grill, 12.5" ($100, was $195) →

Get an All-Clad D3 Stainless Steel Weeknight Pan ($180, was $245) →
At this point, Nespresso is a genre of coffee unto itself. And it’s an incredibly convenient and crowd-pleasing genre. Get yourself a top-of-the-line machine, while it’s on sale.
Get a Nespresso Vertuo Next By Breville ($119, was $255) →
A good chef’s knife will, invariably, be the most important tool in your kitchen. And few things feel better than slicing a steak or even an onion with a high-quality Japanese one.

If you weren’t aware, we love ceramics. And, for some reason, a ceramic colander feels like an especially large flex, even if this one is currently under $20. It’ll give you an excuse to go pick some berries.

You could use the Great Jones Dutch oven (formally called “The Dutchess”) purely as a centerpiece for your dinner table, and we’d only barely judge you for that. But this thing not only looks good, it works well too. And now’s the time to buy one.
Get The Dutchess ($155, 20% off with purchase of $100 or more) →
A quality non-stick skillet will make your life roughly 40-75% easier, depending on how often you cook. And if you pick up this one from Great Jones, there’s a decent chance you’ll use it every day (and display it proudly).
