 Thanksgiving is just over two weeks away, which means it's time to get your kitchen in order. Whether you're planning a party for 20 or a dinner for one, the right cooking utensils can help alleviate the stress of holiday meal prepping.
We dug through our testing archives to pull out 10 of our editors' must-have kitchen essentials for successfully preparing Thanksgiving dinner. Happy cooking — and eating!
 Best instant-read thermometer The improved Thermapen One was the fastest and most accurate thermometer we tested, and had the easiest-to-read display. If you're serious about your cooking, then it's worth the price.  Best cast-iron skillet The Chef Collection pan — the company's lightest skillet — outperformed most of its much higher-priced competitors at nearly every test we threw at it.  Best nonstick pan This pan's depth gives it multipurpose functionality: It cooks standard frying pan foods like eggs and meats, and its 2.5-inch sides are tall enough to prepare recipes you'd usually reserve for pots, like rices and stews.  The Lodge Enameled 6-Quart Cast-Iron Dutch Oven's shiny, smooth finish had zero flaws out of the box, and its 6-quart size was just right for all sorts of tasks.  We were impressed by the sturdy construction, comfort of use and reliable execution that came with each piece in this all-inclusive set. If you're looking for a solid knife set at a price that won't put a dent in your wallet, then this is the clear winner.  Made from moisture-resistant teak, the Teakhaus Professional cleans up easily, is heavy enough to stay in place while you work and beautiful enough to earn a permanent spot on your countertop.  The Rabbit is the most secure, easiest-to-use lever-style corkscrew we've tried, quickly and cleanly removing corks from any bottle with little effort.  The Cuisinart 3-in-1 Cook Central Multicooker gave us perfectly cooked meals, and while it's very easy to use, it offers the best range of useful functions — browning, sautéing and steaming — of all the slow cookers we tested.  The KitchenAid 5-Quart Artisan Series Tilt-Head Stand Mixer delivered the best performance of the mixers we tested. With more than 20 available colors and a classic profile, you'll want to keep it on display in your kitchen.  This peeler is easy to clean, comfortable to hold and provides a smooth, consistent peel. And for just under $11, it's an affordable product you'll love having in your kitchen drawer.
