Looking for the perfect gift for the foodie in your life? You know, the person who loves to have people over for dinner, who\u2019s always the first to know about the newest restaurant<\/a> in town and who can\u2019t stop binge-watching cooking shows in their free time? That person. <\/p>\n If you\u2019re not already a foodie, it can be difficult to shop for someone who loves to cook. After all, you don\u2019t know every gadget or tool they have in their kitchen, and you may not know what they need or want. Plus, if you aren\u2019t already comfortable in a kitchen, it can be difficult to find quality gift options for a reasonable price. <\/p>\n That\u2019s where Best Buy<\/a> comes in. They\u2019ve got a dedicated gifts section<\/a>, where you can currently take up to 40% off of the regular retail price<\/strong> of popular items from gaming systems to pet accessories, as well as a more tailored \u201cgifts for foodies\u201d page<\/a> where they list some of their most popular and best-loved kitchen gadgets and accessories. Plus, if you\u2019re patient, you can scope out their Deal of the Day<\/a>, waiting for the perfect gift option to appear at the best possible price.<\/p>\n Here are nine great gift options for foodies, across a variety of functions and price points, that are both incredibly useful gifts any chef or aspiring chef will be grateful for and <\/em>great value propositions in and of themselves. <\/p>\n If you\u2019re shopping for a friend who loves to host summer BBQs or late-night cocktail parties, chances are their refrigerator\u2019s built-in ice maker just isn\u2019t going to cut it. Most built-ins just can\u2019t keep up with the high volume needed to supply a large number of guests with ice, but Insignia\u2019s Portable Ice Maker can produce almost 20 pounds of ice per day. New cubes are produced every six minutes in two different size options, ensuring the drinks stay cool and the party guests stay refreshed! This clever model even recycles the water from unused, melted ice to make new cubes, helping to make it more energy-efficient. While we wouldn\u2019t hesitate to grab this model even at full price, the 20% discount makes it a great value gift. <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> $99.99, Word has been out about air fryers for some time now: they\u2019re not only fast and versatile, but they also help produce delicious food in less time with less cleanup. Thankfully, cult-favorite kitchen brand Ninja has upped the ante once more with the Foodi 6-in-1 Basket Air Fryer. Its two-basket design allows you to simultaneously cook two different foods at two different temperature settings, which takes so much of the stress and strain off of a parent preparing dinner for the family or a host trying to serve the dinner party their food on time. We love the extra-large, non-stick and dishwasher-safe basket design, as well as the integrated smart thermometer, which takes all of the guesswork out of ensuring your foods are cooked to the perfect temperature.<\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> $219.99, Coffee lovers think nothing of dropping $5 or even $10 per day on their java habit at their nearest coffee shop, but at-home coffee makers and espresso machines have finally gotten to the point that you can get your quality caffeine fix at home, for far less money and in less time. Case in point: the Nespresso Vertuo Lattissima. Its precision brewing technology offers over 30 different Vertuo coffee options, running the gamut from dark and strong to smooth and mild, while the one-touch operation and 30-second heat-up time help simplify the entire process. You even get complete control over the size, with options varying from five ounces all the way up to 18 ounces, as well as whether you want a single or double espresso or a hot or ice-cold brew. <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> $499 at BestBuy.com<\/p>\n Contrary to popular belief, food thermometers are not crutches for mediocre cooks but essential tools to help ensure that meat is both safely cooked and at the desired temperature. We especially love this smart thermometer from Traeger Grills because it wirelessly connects to your smartphone, offering you not only vital temperature information but also cook time estimates, allowing you to monitor your meat without having to leave your guests or permanently camp out next to the grill. It has an effective range of up to 165 feet and lasts for up to 24 hours on a single charge. This particular model comes with an elegant, magnetized charging dock to keep its battery full when it\u2019s not in use. <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> $69.99, Another great long-run value proposition, the SodaStream E-TERRA turns ordinary, flat water into delicious and refreshing sparkling water at the touch of a button. A single cylinder can carbonate up to 60 liters of water, and the one-touch operation and snap-lock design ensure that even children can safely operate this model any time they want a refreshing drink. The foodie in your life will appreciate the savings on grocery store-bought alternatives, as well as the reduced impact on the environment from the reusable carbonating bottle. <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> $102.99, Not every foodie gift needs to be powered by electricity or connected to the internet. In fact, sometimes the simplest option is the best one. If you\u2019re shopping for a friend who loves burgers or just loves to cook burgers during summer cookouts, the Smashed Burger Kit from Cuisinart will help them elevate their ordinary burger into a delicious, maximally browned smash burger. The kit includes a cast iron burger smasher with raised edges to help lock in fats and a heat-resistant handle, plus a seasoning shaker to hold your spice blend of choice, 100 restaurant-grade patty papers and an extra-sharp burger spatula to make the burger flip as easy as possible. <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> $49.99 at BestBuy.com<\/p>\n No self-respecting foodie can operate without a stand mixer. Sure, there are workarounds, from blenders to hand mixing, but nothing beats the power, consistency and sheer versatility of a well-built stand mixer. This stainless steel model from KitchenAid offers 11 unique speed settings (including a half-speed option) and is compatible with over 10 different mixing attachments, allowing you to mix, shred, beat, knead or fold to your heart\u2019s content, all without risking an overuse injury or even breaking a sweat. The generous 5.5-quart bowl capacity can mash up to six pounds of potatoes, or knead over seven pounds of bread, while the industrial-strength design and ink-blue coloring ensure this beautiful kitchen gadget will be a kitchen staple for years to come. <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> $449.99 at BestBuy.com<\/p>\n No kitchen can be considered complete without a powerful blender, and not just for the delicious smoothie-making potential it unlocks. The right blender can help you make your own butters, soups, sauces, salad dressings and baking batters, create the perfect base for homemade ice cream or help you whip up a large batch of delicious cocktails. And trust us: the Ninja Professional Plus Kitchen System is the <\/em>right blender, capable of tackling all of the above with ease. Need to make a massive batch of something? The 72-ounce main pitcher has you covered. Want to create single-serving, one-of options? There are two, 24-ounce cups with spout lids ready for the job. The 1400-watt motor crushes and blends with ease, while all the blending parts are completely dishwasher-safe, making cleanup a breeze.<\/p>\nInsignia Portable Ice Maker<\/strong><\/h3>\n
