Father’s Day is Sunday, June 19th<\/sup>, so if you start now to look for the perfect gift of love and gratitude for Dad, you’ll have plenty of time to find something he’ll be overjoyed to receive.<\/p>\n

Our children are fifteen and my husband has a large collection of adorable homemade gifts given to him over the years.\u00a0 This year I’ve suggested that our two think of surrendering some of their weekly allowance for a gift fitting our “King of the Grill,” and here are some ideas we came up with:<\/p>\n

Grillbot Automatic BBQ Grill Cleaning Robot<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"If you’re familiar with the Roomba, this small, automatic device is built upon the same concept and cleans your BBQ grill while Dad enjoys a game of golf or entertains guests.<\/p>\n

The chore of cleaning the BBQ grill is never a task any of us relish, so this gift is perfect for Dad.\u00a0 The Grillbot comes with three replaceable brushes, a built-in LCD alarm, timer, and three powerful electric motors.\u00a0 We purchased ours on Amazon.ca<\/a><\/span><\/em>. <\/span><\/p>\n

\nBranding Iron<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Add a touch of originality to your next BBQ!\u00a0 Dad can brand the steaks with his own customized branding iron.<\/p>\n

In the past, branding was a means of identifying items and creating a \u201cmaker\u2019s mark\u201d by burning initials or a \u201clogo\u201d into wood cabinets, tables, chairs, desks, and leather items.\u00a0 Today, using a branding iron to personalize your steaks is becoming much more commonplace as you can get them in a variety of different letters, symbols and shapes.\u00a0 This moose branding iron, measuring 10″ in length including the handle and the moose, is approximately 3″ tall and can be found online at The Leather Guy<\/a>.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

It’s recommended that the branding irons heat on the stove or a grill for about ten minutes prior to use. Caution: use a thick glove when handling once it’s good and hot.<\/p>\n

\"MeatIvation Long Range Meat Thermometer\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Dad can now take the guess work out of serving up the perfect steak!<\/p>\n

A really good meat thermometer will change your culinary life.\u00a0 It monitors temperatures from up to 300 feet away, alerting you when the temperature drops or rises and even stores your meat settings for the next time. \u00a0Again, we were able to get this product quicker and cheaper on Amazon.ca<\/a><\/span><\/em> and if you’re a prime member, you can receive it in two days.<\/p>\n
