Sourced from a variety of brands, each bag will feature unique spices and textures and could even include exotic or game meats. Crate Joy offers one, three, six or 12 month subscription options.
Traeger
The ultimate in outdoor cooking, a Traeger wood pellet grill is more than a smoker, it’s a lifestyle. There’s even a Traeger Cocktail that mixes up bourbon, grilled lemons and smoked simple syrup – you can find the full recipe here: https://www.traeger.com/recipes/traegerade-cocktail
Offering a set-it-and-forget-it style of cooking, the Traeger regulates temperatures and circulates heat for consistent cooking. Not just for smoked meat, Traegers are great for pizza night, veggies and even baked goods. Basically, anything you can cook in our oven, you can throw on the Traeger.
BONUS: If dad likes to cook, he’ll love the Meater– a wifi, smart meat thermometer that works in any oven, grill, smoker or rotisserie.

A Tee Time

Just remember, Father’s Day is in the middle of summer so be sure to stay hydrated and don’t skip the sunscreen. Gifting dad with a sunburn on his special day isn’t the type of memory we had in mind.
