Dads have the amazing ability to be there for us when we need them most, always have a corny joke at the ready, and, if they’re foodies, keep our bellies full and fridges stocked. In short, they’re miracle workers and totally worthy of celebrating every day but especially on Father’s Day. Dads are notoriously hard to shop for because they rarely tell you what they want, but there are plenty of gifts they’ll love that are both fun and functional that they’re sure to love. And, the good news is that some of our favorite gifts can be found on Amazon, so you can easily order them from your phone on the go and score two-day shipping on many (just in case you procrastinated a bit). Scroll on to browse some of our favorite picks for dads who love to grill, bake, host a crowd or even just put hot sauce on everything.

For the Dad Who Loves to Grill

Barbecue season is in full swing, and these gifts will help dad savor every minute of it, starting with a clip-on grill light to help him flip after dark. Upgrade his gear by grabbing him a handsome apron so he can avoid sauce stains on his jeans. Ceramic prep and serve trays will help him keep his proteins organized, and a smart thermometer will make sure they’re cooked to the right temperature. A wood grilling kit will allow him to experiment with smoking meats, and a letter branding iron will be a sign to all that he rules the grill. Lastly, you can’t go wrong with quality BBQ sauce, and Lillie’s Q Carolina sauce is finger-licking good.

For the Dad Who Loves Baking

If Dad loves to bake, gifting him some great baking gear will basically ensure that delicious treats keep coming out of the oven. The Emile Henry Artisan Bread Baker is a great gift if your dad loves making a fresh loaf or got super into sourdough at home in 2020. It’s a little pricey, but it’s a total heirloom he’ll have for years to come. Pastry pros will appreciate a cool place to roll dough, and marble is renowned for its ability to stay cold, so this board will come in handy for pies, biscuits and cookie dough. Speaking of cookie dough, some soft silicon oven mitts will help him take trays of chocolate chips out of the oven easily thanks to their incredible grip. He can then rest them on the Nordicware two-tier copper cooling rack which is just as much eye-candy as it is functional. Baking requires precision, and if your dad is a stickler for measurements, he’ll appreciate the Rosti Mensura Digital Measuring Scale to make sure his ingredients are all at the correct ratios. Any good baker knows that the ingredients can make or break the bake, so Heilala Vanilla Extract, which is made sustainably in Tonga, will take his treats up a notch. Lastly, GIR silicon baking cups are handy for birthdays, bake sales and any time he makes muffins or cupcakes and wants to remove them easily and cleanly from their cups.

For the Dad Who Loves Beer

If he appreciates a well-crafted beer, he’ll need pro-level tasting glasses to drink it out of or an elegant can cooler to keep his brews frosty on the go. The Laser Personalized Beer Tap Handle is a thoughtful gift for a guy who has (or dreams of having) his own taps at home, and gifting him a craft beer kit might be just the thing to inspire him. Of course, it’s not a home bar without a cool wall-mounted bottle opener. The one below is shaped like a beer bottle! He’s likely already an expert on hops, but grab him this cool beer varieties poster from Pop Chart so he has something to reference when he’s thinking about what his next six pack purchase will be. He’ll get a kick out of this adorable IPA-scented candle that has 40+ hours of burn time.

For the Dad Who Loves Heat

Some like it hot, and if your dad is one of those people, we’re guessing he could always use more hot sauce and other spicy ingredients. Whether he’s a classic Tabasco man or a Chili Crunch enthusiast, you’ll find something below to set his heart (and mouth) on fire. Getting back to Tabasco lovers, true fans will dig this colorful Tabasco-branded T-shirt. If he needs more ways to show off his fiery passion, check out the cool pair of hot sauce socks. Add to his arsenal of sauces with the Yellow Bird variety set (jalapeno hot sauce, a blue agave sriracha sauce, and more) or Truff’s truffle oil hot sauces that somehow go with everything. But Dad knows there’s more to hot stuff than just hot sauce. Spoil him with Fly By Jing’s spicy chili crunch set and something sweet like Stonewall Kitchen’s pepper jelly collection (try it on corn muffins, trust us). Another fun hot sauce-themed gift is a chili pepper grow kit so he can try his hand at making his own secret sauce.

For the Dad Who Loves Breakfast

It’s always breakfast time somewhere … that’s how the saying goes, right? A dad who could live off of bacon and pancakes needs a gift that takes his breakfasts up a notch. If he considers himself something of a short-order cook, a nonstick skillet will come in handy for perfect sunny-side-up eggs that will slide right off the pan. Another egg-cellent gift? A cool egg timer that you can throw in the boiling water along with your eggs. It will tell Dad exactly when they’re ready, whether he wants them soft-boiled or hard-boiled. If he loves a good breakfast sandwich, he’ll love Hamilton Beach’s Dual Breakfast Sandwich Maker, which will allow him to perfectly cook eggs and meat plus toast English muffins at once to create his dream sammies. On the sweet side, a Belgian waffle maker will make a morning at home more like a continental hotel breakfast, and the OXO Good Grips Batter Dispenser will allow him to pour out the perfect amount of batter into his new waffle iron or onto his nonstick pans when making his signature flapjacks. Of course, both of those will need syrup, and Father’s Day requires a special variety like Trees Knees Coffee Maple Syrup, which is infused with Stumptown Coffee. Some dads are more into breakfast on the go, and for those men, The Crunch Cup is a life (or breakfast) saver that will keep their cereal and milk separate until they hit your mouth — no more soggy morsels!

For the Dad Who Loves to Entertain

For the dad who loves to host, an oversized cooler is a great gift if he likes to invite friends over for backyard barbecues, Super Bowl parties or any other big gathering. We love this Yeti Tundra Cooler that comes in lots of fun colors and can hold 26 cans of beer, soda or sparkling water. If he’s more of a champagne guy, nothing makes a more entertaining party trick than sabering the cork off of a champagne bottle – and he’ll need the perfect tool to do it safely. Another party trick? Placing that bottle of champagne in an ice bucket made of ice – and anything else he wants to add – using an Ice Bucket Mold. If he’s more of a cocktail or mocktail guy, a glass drink dispenser will let him try out all of his favorite big-batch recipes. In terms of food, who doesn’t love a little nostalgia with their party? A fondue set makes for a fun activity and a delicious chocolatey dessert or a cheesy appetizer. For more cheese, a charcuterie board is a must, and this one breaks off into smaller trays or can stick together with magnets to make an extra-large board. When the guests have left, a tiny tabletop vacuum will help him clear away crumbs quickly.
