Subject: Re: leather grill gloves
There were a few times when I had to touch the food with them, and that's how the grease/oils got into them. - 1pg

We have different techniques, I touch the food every time. No utensils, it is just so much easier to grab onto the ribs or pork belly or whatever with your gloved hands to flip over or move around. Better than squeezing hard on a pair of tongs and have it fall or slip anyway. The silicone makes for easy clean up afterwards.
The other thing about tongs I didn't like was I would have a nice crust on a piece of meat only to tear it loose grabbing it with the tongs.
