The Kitchen Cabinet was an informal group of unofficial advisers that U.S. President Andrew Jackson consulted in place of his official United States Cabinet. The primary members of the Kitchen Cabinet were William B. Lewis, Amos Kendall, John Eaton and Duff Green, the editor of the United States Telegraph. After most of Jackson's cabinet resigned in the wake of the Eaton Affair the role of the Kitchen Cabinet was much diminished.
