My Favorite Kitchen Tools That I Use Every Day

If you’ve ever wondered what I actually use in my own kitchen, today’s the day I spill the beans! 🍳 Over the years, I’ve tried my fair share of pots, pans, gadgets, and pantry staples—but only the real ones have earned a permanent spot in Mama Hall’s Kitchen.

That’s why I created a Shop My Kitchen page—a one-stop list of my everyday cooking tools, slow cooker must-haves, spices I swear by (yes, I’m looking at you, Slap Ya Mama), and more.

Why I Made This Page

When I share recipes or tips, I often get questions like:

• What kind of skillet do you use for that cornbread?

• Which slow cooker is best for big batches?

• Where do you get your seasoning blends?

So instead of repeating myself every time, I figured—why not give y’all a peek into what’s actually in my kitchen? And yes, every item on this list is something I personally use and love. No fluff, no fancy influencer vibes. Just good, reliable stuff.

A Few of My Ride-or-Die Favorites

Here’s a little taste of what’s on the list:

🍳 Lodge 10.25" Cast Iron Skillet – My go-to for EVERYTHING, but especially the best cornbread in the world. That crust? Come on now.

🔥 Claude’s Brisket Marinade – A smoky, savory blend that makes any slow cooker meal taste like you’ve been outside tending a grill all day.

🧂 Slap Ya Mama Cajun Seasoning – This goes on just about everything in my house. Eggs, chicken, popcorn—don’t knock it 'til you try it.

🍽️ Crock-Pot 7 Qt Slow Cooker – Big, dependable, and perfect for hands-off meals on busy nights.

☕ Keurig K-Café SMART – Because Mama needs her coffee quick, strong, and sometimes iced.

That’s just scratching the surface. If you want to browse the full list, I’ve got it all neatly organized by category—from cookware to coffee to storage containers that make my pantry look like I actually have my life together.
