If you start dreaming about burgers, hot dogs and ice-cold lemonade the moment the weather hits above 60 degrees, then we bet you're exactly the type of person who loves hosting a good outdoor party. Outdoor parties are a thin line for a host to walk: there's a lot to do but the best ones always feel effortless. However, if done right, you can find a few things that make both prep and party time a breeze. And that's where this list comes in, we found some of the best grilling gadgets, serveware and organizers that will soon become your favorites.
The to-do list can be long: keep drinks cold, have a place to access napkins and cutlery, make sure the grill is being manned and ensure the guests' cups are full. But enter things like a one-handed meat marinating plate, a three-tier cutlery station and a cooler that holds a whopping 100 cans of soda? Well, you're about to be the best host on the block.
If your outdoor party goes well into the late hours, keep the burgers going and use these magnetic LED grill lights from Cuisinart. They'll stick snugly to the metal sides of your grill so you can see exactly what you're doing.

An easier, faster way to please the kiddos during any outdoor get-together comes in this two-pack of outdoor tabletop smore makers. The two portable fire pits can be done right on a patio table, and they come with skewers, too.
If you entertain a lot, you know that a good cooler is worth its weight in gold. And the Tommy Bahama Rolling Party Cooler is a great cooler. It fits 100 12-ounce cans in its steel body. The deluxe carry handles and wheels make it easy to transport around.

Go from the grill to the table with this BBQ set that includes three perforated grilling baskets, a tray, and a universal handle. It's perfect to cook things like vegetables, fish or chicken in; then you can serve them right on the tray. It's all constructed from sturdy stainless steel.
When the party gets busy, you'll need all the grill help you can get. This unique product is another multitasker: it's an easy marinating station that allows you to use one hand to get the job done. Just place the steak or burger on the non-slip tray, use the silicone brush to apply the marinade directly from a groove in the tray (and there's also a place for salt, pepper and spices).
