Handyman Grilling Gear

These BBQ Tools Would Be a Perfect Father's Day Gift

— May 11, 2011 — Lifestyle
Mother's Day has just passed and now you should be thinking about what to get for your amazing dad on Father's Day, which is just around the corner; let me suggest these BBQ Tools. We already know that dads like to take the helm when grilling up meat during family get togethers or other special occasions (or not so special occasions). These BBQ Tools not only address this manly love, but also your dad's handyman tendencies as well.

Priced at an affordable $35.95, the BBQ Tools could easily double as actual tools such as a hammer, wrench and tape measure. But when barbecuing, they become a fork, spatula and Basting Brush.

If you already have a gift in mind, the BBQ Tools are just good to have during the summer days.
Trend Themes
1. Multi-functional Tools - There is an opportunity to create multi-functional tools that serve a dual purpose, such as combining grilling utensils with common household tools.
2. Handyman-inspired Products - Designing products that appeal to the handyman tendencies of individuals, such as grilling gear that resembles familiar tools, can be a disruptive innovation opportunity.
3. Dual-use Kitchen Accessories - Developing kitchen accessories that can be repurposed for other tasks, like using BBQ tools as regular tools, allows for convenience and practicality.
Industry Implications
1. Outdoor Cooking Supplies - The outdoor cooking supplies industry could explore the incorporation of handyman-inspired design elements into their products to attract a broader customer base.
2. Home Improvement Retail - Home improvement retailers have an opportunity to offer multi-functional products that bridge the gap between grilling and repurposing common household tools, targeting consumers who appreciate practicality.
3. Kitchenware and Utensils - The kitchenware industry can explore the development of dual-use utensils, combining grilling functions with tools commonly found in a handyman's toolkit.
