A friend invited me to her Pampered Chef party 🫠 but I’m willing to give one or two items a shot. I have a lot of kitchen stuff, but I also cook a fair bit.
I read through the PC favorites thread from 2020 but was wondering if anyone had any new products they’d recommend.
I’m eyeing the insulated serveware that keeps things hot/cold, if anyone has them.

I own all of their insulated bowls/serveware and love them! They are probably my favorite Pampered Chef item. We use them at every holiday and potluck. They work well. When I started to read your post, it's the first thing I thought of before you mentioned them. I really like their mix and chop too!

the stonewear is outstanding. I have had my pie plate and pizza stone for 30 yrs or more.
I have been happy with most stuff I have bought through them.

I'll be the dissenter - I bought the mix n' chop because everyone raves about it but I never use it - I don't find it works any better than my spatula. DD17 loves it though so maybe it's just me - I'll sit right on the bench with you, I am not impressed with it at all and its actually more annoying to clean, IMO, than a spatula.I do use my PC garlic press ALL the time - me too!www.pamperedchef.com/shop/Kitchen+Tools/Food+Prep/Garlic+Press/2576 I love their pizza stone. I use it for more than pizza, pretty much any meats or baking (ie cookies, rolls, etc). I have a round pizza stone - the new one has handles, which is sort of annoying for storage, and a rectangle one too. Their new pizza cutter I am not a fan of. it has the wheel which I feel is not as sharp as my old PC pizza cutter, and the new one has a blade on the back for a crust cutter, but its just not that great. we have a bunch of the citrus peelers, I swear they used to be 25 cents or a dollar, but they are good. |

My neighbor had a garage sale a few years ago and I bought her stoneware pie plate for $1. I always have a great bottom crust on pies. I consider it to be one of my best garage sale finds. |

I have quite a bit of Pampered Chef. Almost all of it was gifted to me by my mother (who has even more). Some of it I use a lot, some of it not so much. Their small spatula is one of my favorite. Small mix ‘n scrapper |

Can you place orders directly with Pampered Chef? I've never known anyone who sells it and I definitely want the garlic press and the small spoon spatula thing.

My pizza stone gets used all the time. Cookies and biscuits turn out much better and I never use a cookie sheet now. If I can't bake them on my stone, I won't make them.

I have a microwave cooker that I love. It's a bowl with a lid that has some air holes. I put raw or frozen vegetables in it and microwave for five minutes or so. Comes out perfect every time.

After reading about it in a post on here, I bought the Mix N’ Chop because I buy the large multi-packages of ground turkey from Costco and cook it all up at once, unseasoned, and then freeze it in small, usable amounts to add to soups. I wasn’t all that impressed the first time I tried it, but I do use it every time I cook ground turkey. In fact, when I moved here and it was still boxed up on one of the pods, I almost purchased a knockoff version from Walmart to use until my things could be delivered. It felt a bit wobbly though, and I ultimately decided to make do with a set of silicone spatulas until my stuff arrived.

I got the Large Square Cool and Serve last year and used it a ton this past summer for putting food out on hot days.

Their cookie scoops are THE BEST. I have had several others and they are all trash. I also love the mini serving spatulas. I probably have at least four at each house, at least two metal and two nylon. I haven’t been to a party in a while so I’m not up on what’s new.

We also love the pizza stone, the Mix N Chop, and their scrapers, I’m not sure if they still sell these but the others I’ve bought weren’t nearly as sturdy. Like the look of the sauce whisk, thanks christinec68! |

I just order some new rubber spoon/spatulas. I’ve had my old ones for at least 25 years and they still look pretty good. So those are going in the kids’ stockings, along with some small metal spatulas that are great for bars and small items.

My favorite by far is the Mix N Chop. I also like the scrapers/spatulas and bamboo everything. LOL!

I have the plastic version of the sauce whisk and use it often. I also love their mini spatulas and have both metal and plastic versions. I use the mix snd chop think that’s the name for the thing to help break up ground beef while cooking. Their garlic mincer is nice and easy to use as well as their scoops.
I totally forgot about their stoneware as I rarely use and will have to pull out my pie dish the next time I make a pie.
ETA. Their microwave pans are great too. Makes perfectly steamed broccoli.

LOVE and would buy again: Mix n chop; food chopper, garlic press, & baking stones. HATED the can opener. Also LOVE the sheet pans. I put the sheet pans in the oven when I set it to self clean, and they come out like new!

The pitchers! The ones with the plunger inside so you don't have to dirty a spoon. No one makes a better one, I've tried Rubbermaid, etc. and they are all junk. The PC ones are acrylic and heavy duty and last years.
