This Is My Mother-in-Law’s Secret to Cooking Big Breakfasts for the Whole Family—It’s Only $24 Right Now

In my house, the weekend offers much more than not having to work. It also brings the promise of long, leisurely breakfasts with my family. Kids and adults alike (there are nine of us who all live within walking distance from each other) gather in my mother-in-law Kathy’s kitchen to enjoy a big platter of cloud-like golden pancakes, crisp strips of bacon, and rounds of Taylor ham with the edges just slightly burned — because, yes,  we live in northern New Jersey. But the key to her legendary breakfast gatherings isn’t the ingredients (although you can’t replace Taylor Ham). It’s this griddle.  

Kathy’s Nordic Ware stovetop griddle makes a great gift for anyone who is looking for a handy piece of cookware that will efficiently cook big batches of breakfast food — and right now, you can grab one for yourself or someone you love for just $24. 

Nordic Ware Two Burner Griddle

This Nordic Ware griddle measures 10.3 by 17.4-inches, and rests on top of two burners on Kathy’s stove. It’s made from aluminum which is fast to heat up so that hungry bellies spend less time waiting for their food. The nonstick coating on the smooth surface is crucial because it allows the pancakes to slide right off the pan, and ensures that Kathy serves flawlessly round pancakes every time.

The other benefit to the nonstick coating is that the pan is exceptionally easy to clean. That’s especially important when Kathy has spent all morning cooking for her family — she’s been on her feet for a while already, and wants to eat herself, not exert any more effort trying to scrub grease and food debris off the pan. 

The griddle can fit four or five large pancakes on the surface at a time, which makes getting breakfast on the table before everyone starts complaining a breeze. Once the pancakes are plated, she just throws a whole package of bacon on the griddle (typically around 16 strips) followed by the sliced Taylor Ham. 

Although she usually prepares each of these elements of the meal separately, the great thing about this griddle is that it's large enough to cook multiple foods (like bacon and fried eggs) at the same time — that’s just not the case with the average frying pan. She keeps it in the cabinet directly below the stove, so it’s always within reach when the family gathers for weekend brunch. 

If you’ve been on the hunt for a way to get breakfast on the table faster, you need this griddle. Even better, if there’s a special person in your life who loves to host family on the weekends for brunch, this griddle makes the ideal gift — especially since it's just $24.
