During the holidays, you can use all the help you can get in the kitchen. That’s where popular cast iron cookware picks, like Lodge skillets and Le Creuset sauteuses, come in handy: Not only will they cook meals to perfection, they’ll also last a lifetime. Plus, set-and-forget appliances, like this Crockpot slow cooker and this Oster roaster oven that even comes with a basting lid, are things you won’t know how you lived without.
