2foodtrippers Holiday Gift Guide

As professional food travelers, we’re picky when it comes to items we use both at home and on the road.

In our prior lives, we were typical Americans with addictions to acquiring things, many of which ended up in our Philadelphia basement. Three years on the road taught us to appreciate the ‘less is more’ concept which we practice now that we live in Portugal.

This Butter Pie Crust is the most tender and flaky crust you’ll ever make! It’s made from just four ingredients and will make the perfect base for all of your pies this holiday season.

This also means I have tons of pie recipes you need to try out! You’ve got to try this classic Chocolate Pie, this “dump everything in a blender and bake” Impossible Pie, and this perfect for any occasion Fresh Strawberry Pie!

Look no further for the BEST turkey seasoning recipe you will ever make! The combination of herbs and spices in this rub will flavor your turkey to perfection and it will be your go-to turkey rub.

All the classic herbs and spices of Thanksgiving dinner are packed into one perfect blend for your bird! Your turkey will take on the most amazing flavors. I love adding flavorful seasonings to make any meat or poultry taste incredible. Try this baked chicken, this delicious chicken recipe, or my favorite air fryer pork chops for tasty seasoned meat.

Turkey Rub

This turkey rub is a combination of aromatic dried herbs and savory spices. I love the blend of thyme, rosemary, and sage because they are all meant to be together on a turkey.

Get your mind out of the gutter! The Between the Sheets Cocktail is a sophisticated sipper that you can order at a fancy bar or craft at home with just a handful of ingredients. Follow our easy recipe if you prefer the latter option.

Between the Sheets Cocktail Up Close

The Between the Sheets cocktail caught our eye for two reasons.

First, there’s no denying that this cocktail’s moniker demands attention. We thirsted to know what was in such a provocatively named drink. Knowing those ingredients led us to our second reason – cognac.

We’re always looking for ways to multi-purpose liquor. We’d previously bought a bottle of cognac to craft Vieux Carré cocktails and later used it to craft Brandy Alexanders. The Between the Sheets cocktail became our third cognac cocktail crafted with the same bottle.

A classic Southern condiment, this Nashville hot sauce is the best for coating chicken in flavorful spice! It mixes up with just a few simple ingredients. You’re going to love having it on hand!

You probably know by now that I LOVE making sauces and seasonings from scratch. Not only do they taste better, but they’re free of preservatives and artificial flavoring! You’ve got to try this homemade buffalo sauce! And if you’re looking for yummy sauces for dipping chicken in, copycat Chick-fil-A sauce and Cane’s sauce recipes are both great choices!
