Top 5 Kitchen Features

Here are the top five kitchen features that make Thanksgiving cooking a total breeze (and maybe even fun!) Thanksgiving is the Super Bowl of home cooking and your kitchen is the stadium. 🦃 Whether you’re cooking for two or hosting a houseful of hungry relatives, the right kitchen setup can make or break your holiday sanity. 

1️⃣ Double Ovens

One for the turkey, one for the pie need we say more? A double oven setup means you can bake, roast, and reheat all at once without juggling timers or begging your neighbor to “just use their oven for five minutes.” A double oven is definitily one of the top 5 kitchen features to have!

2️⃣ A Spacious Island

A large kitchen island is the command center for holiday chaos. It’s where you chop veggies, stage dishes, and secretly eat pie before the guests arrive. Bonus points for islands with built-in storage and seating they turn prep space into a social hub.

3️⃣ Deep Sink with Sprayer Faucet

When you’re elbow-deep in dishes, a deep basin and pull-down sprayer save the day. (And yes, that mountain of pots will eventually get washed.)

4️⃣ Plenty of Counter Space

You can never have too much counter space on Thanksgiving. Look for kitchens with long stretches of uninterrupted countertop or add a rolling butcher block for extra prep real estate.

5️⃣ Smart or Double Refrigeration

Between the turkey, casseroles, and leftovers, fridge space becomes prime real estate. A secondary fridge or smart fridge with adjustable shelves keeps everything organized and cold enough for those late-night turkey sandwiches. 🥪
