Gift-giving is a skill that requires some serious forethought. There's nothing wrong with going the gift card or cash route (as it all but guarantees they'll enjoy their present), but sometimes, you want to go above and beyond to show someone how much you care. To do that, you've got to look at the things that they're passionate about. Have someone on your nice list who spends all their free time rewatching old "Yellowstone" episodes? Or cosplaying as a ranch hand? Or researching ranches in Montana? Then, finding a "Yellowstone" gift that's on theme will be a surefire way to make them light up like a Christmas tree.
While it would be easy enough to grab a promotional t-shirt, there's a good chance your "Yellowstone" stan already has a closet full of them. The same goes with the DVD set of the complete "Yellowstone" seasons. To really make their Yuletide merry and bright, you've got to think outside the box a bit. What would an aspiring Dutton want but might not yet have? What would make their holiday season even more special?
If you're on the hunt for some "Yellowstone"-inspired gifts, we've got you covered with 15 ideas that even John Dutton (Kevin Costner) would approve of.
A Meal Straight From Chef Gator

While we'd all love to have our own personal Chef Gator in-house to whip up delicious meals, that's not exactly financially feasible. This cookbook by the real-life Chef Gabriel "Gator" Guilbeau is the next best thing, with over 55 recipes inspired by the show, like Rip's Fry Bread with Scrambled Eggs and Bacon or Beth's Ice Cream and Vodka Smoothie. And don't forget his famous biscuit recipe.
A Genuine Ranch Hand Hat
Amazon
If it's your recipient's secret (or not-so-secret) dream to work on the Dutton Ranch like ranch hand Jimmy, they'll wear this mesh trucker hat with the official logo with pride. It's got an adjustable hook and snap-strap fit for any size head, so they'll be looking like a bonafide ranch hand in no time.
A Ranch Foreman Hat Just Like Rip's
Yellowstone TV Shop
Maybe your fan has bigger fictional aspirations than just cleaning horse stalls and sleeping in the bunkhouse. Maybe they want to be a real-life cowboy like Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser). If so, this replica of his iconic cowboy hat is an absolute must-have.
A Nod to Everyone's TV Crush
Yellowstone TV Shop
Anyone who's watching "Yellowstone" is crushing over Wheeler (Hauser) and his fiery love story with Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly). Let your recipient show off their love for Rip and the show with this personalized wine glass, perfect for enjoying a glass of vino while binging on old episodes.
A Snarky Inside-Joke Coffee Mug
Etsy
If you don't watch the show (and if not, what are you doing?), the train station is what the Duttons call this uninhabited area where they, um, "dispose" of any problematic people. This hilarious mug commemorates that family's homicidal pastime.
A "Yellowstone" Card Game
Amazon
Game nights just got a little more intense with this "Yellowstone" themed card game. Players take on the roles of different characters from the show in a race to gain control of the Dutton ranch. But watch out, as betrayal and accusations are constantly thrown around, making it anyone's game until the very end.
A Cozy Dutton Sweatshirt
Lucky Brand
Let's be honest—most TV show apparel is a little on the lame side. But not this cotton crew neck sweatshirt from Lucky Brand. It's a little more elevated than the generic garb you'd find on Amazon, and the logo adds a subtle but stylish touch.
A Whiskey John Dutton Would Definitely Drink
Limestone Branch
John (Costner) is known to pour a glass or two of whiskey whenever he needs to think (which is a lot, considering all the drama that goes on at that ranch). This select Kentucky straight bourbon pays homage to Yellowstone National Park rather than the show, but its smoked caramel, oak, and cherry flavor profile is undoubtedly a pour the family patriarch would approve of.
A Custom Family Ranch Sign
Etsy
Make your fan's dream of owning a ranch like the Duttons come (kind of) true with this personalized metal sign. You can have their name or the family name proudly displayed on it and choose from three different sizes that are perfect for hanging in the living room, bedroom, or even over the barn door.
A Morning Cup of Coffee From Rip
Free Rein
Cole Hauser—the actor who plays Rip Wheeler on the show—recently launched his own coffee line called Free Rein. And while he's not personally delivering it to your doorstep, the beans are made in the USA and roasted in small batches for maximum flavor.
A Pair of Ranch-Worthy Boots
Tecovas
These cowboy boots are not only stylish, but they're also practical for any ranch work your fan may dream of doing. Made with bison leather and slip-resistant rubber soles, these boots are built to last through even the toughest of tasks. Plus, the classic design will have them feeling like a real Dutton in no time.
A Candle That Smells Like The Bunkhouse
Etsy
But in, like, a good way. This Ranch Hand candle from Etsy shop 1971CandleCo is definitely something Beth Dutton (Reilly) would burn in the bunkhouse once it started smelling a little too much like, well, a bunkhouse. With notes of coconut, clove, leather, and tobacco, it's the perfect way to bring a little piece of "Yellowstone" into any home.
A Flannel Teeter Would Love
Duluth Trading Co
Flannel and rugged ranch life go hand in hand, and this heavy-duty Free Swingin' Flannel Fence Mender Shirt from Duluth Trading Co. is no exception. With a soft touch and the perfect amount of warmth for working outside, this button-up is both functional and stylish. Duluth's new Mender collection also includes a men's flannel worthy of any member of the Yellowstone Ranch.
A Pair of Signature Ranch Shades
Amazon
The Montana sun is no joke, which is why you'll see every character on "Yellowstone" rocking a pair of shades. If you know which character your recipient loves most, you can gift them a pair of shades inspired by that specific character, like Wheeler's (Hauser) classic aviators or Beth Dutton's (Reilly) signature cat-eyes.
A Rip Wheeler Cookie Cutter
Etsy
You heard us. This Rip cookie cutter from Etsy shop DreamboatCutters will allow your fan to make cookies in the shape of everyone's favorite ranch-foreman-turned-love-interest. It's the perfect DIY treat to make whenever the final part of the show (finally) premieres.
