Kitchen scale. Baking is much better with weight measurements instead of volume. Also useful for calculating calories.

Headlamp. Having light where you don't need to hold a phone or a flashlight is great.

Digital meat thermometer. No more guessing.

USB charging hub. Charge many devices at once.

Iโ€™ll second the meat thermometer. I bought one a little while ago and find that it prevents me from overcooking things out of an overabundance of caution.

No more dried pork chops or chicken! I probe everything I eat. I also used a "Meater" to cook our Thanksgiving turkey, came out ridiculously juicy.

Wireless ones are fantastic, can BBQ and cook in the kitchen without worrying about over/under cooking
