Experienced hosts know that keeping your delicious food hot and ready to serve is a challenge. When folks are chatting away, it’s a party until they get to the Buffalo wings and a cold mouthful spoils the vibe.

Instead of keeping food on top of potentially hazardous fuel cans, warming trays and mats are a great alternative to keep the party going. Commerce and Content Strategy Reporter Victoria McDonnell didn’t even realize the greatness of a food warming tray until she was gifted one.

“It has changed the game for hosting. It allows me to prep everything at once and keep it warm so if guests arrive late, it’s still piping hot. I’ve used a tray like this for hosting brunches, preparing for a girl dinner (of course) and prepping a variety of sides to stay warm for hours,” she said.

This FEPPO Food Warming Mat on Amazon is easy to set up for any occasion—just plug it in and adjust the temperature and timer. And with the holidays coming up you’re gonna want to use this.

This silicone food mat heats up to 212 degrees Fahrenheit in just 10 seconds. Its six varying temperature levels keep your food warm and toasty. With the adjustable timer, you can defrost or maintain food temperature for up to six hours.

And you can safely put most kitchenware on it, from ceramics to stainless steel bowls and plates. Coming in 24 by 15 inch XL mat or a bigger 36 by 16 inch XXL mat, simply rolling it up makes a convenient storage option.

Reviewers on Amazon love how good this mat is at maintaining a consistent temperature and how east it is to clean, with one reviewer calling it an “Excellent investment for holiday gathering.” Buy yours today and save 28% off a hosting necessity.
