I may let the cat out of the bag early on Kevin’s Father’s Day gift. Kevin has been eyeing a Traeger Smoker for a long time and I couldn’t wait to gift him something that we all would enjoy so much! We got him the Timberline. It comes on Monday, so we will be back to share what it looks like and favorite recipes!
When I mentioned the smoker, the recommendations started to flood in on different types and brands to try. I am learning, people have strong opinions on BBQ! We ultimately stuck with the Traeger, but here is a list of the others that people said that they had and they LOVED-
- Traeger (top mentioned)
- Pit Boss
- Big Green Egg
- Rec Tec
- Green Mountain (has pizza oven)
- Yoder
- Grilla Grill
- Masterbuilt Smoker
- Camp Chef
- Weber (charcoal)
Gift Guide for Him
If you’re stumped on ideas for your Father’s Day gifts, I thought I would round- up some other great ideas for him! All of these things are items Kevin has and loves!

Paddle board– we have had this paddle board for about 3 years, you inflate it at the beach or a lake! No worrying about transporting it. You pump it up in a minute or two and it feels like a legit paddle board!
Laptop Skin– Kevin and I kept taking each others computer. So he ordered us both different laptop skins, and a lot of you have asked about them whenever you spot them on Instagram Stories! Great inexpensive gift!
17″ Jogger Shorts– Kevin is a shorts guy. Rarely will you ever see him in pants. He has those jogger shorts in a couple colors.
Airpods and AirPod case– If the man in your life doesn’t have AirPods yet….they will be over the moon excited when they get these!!!
Sunglasses– Kevin is very particular with his sunglasses, and he actually loves and wears this more than any others I have seen!
Massager– Kevin actually gave me this massager for mothers day from the kids! He was kind-of joking when he gave it to me because I am the person at the airport putting quarters in the massage chair! Anyone else? So I think any guy would want this too! It is a “top gift” on amazon too.
Pressure Washer with attachment – we got this for Kevin a couple years ago and it is still a favorite thing. Easily spray off your deck, front of the house, fence, wash a car and more. Make sure to get this attachment to use on painted surfaces and also cars etc. that you don’t want to damage.
Retro Tevas and they also come in black here– Kevin has the colorful old school tevas in the fun colors! He says they are very comfortable too!
Hope you have a great weekend!
Bought the massager for father’s day for me! Its a gift for him because he won’t have to massage me all the time anymore!
YES!!! hahaha! I think that is why Kevin secretly bought it for me!
Everything looks so good! Your contractors rock! Can you pass them over to me when you’re finished?! 🤣 they are so efficient…I could use them at my house for sure!!!!
Thank you! Agree!!! They did such a good job!
