With sturdy and comfortable BBQ tongs you can easily turn and move meat, fish, vegetables and more without burning your hands or dropping the food. In this page we take a closer look at the different types of BBQ tongs and what you should pay attention to when choosing the right tongs for your BBQ adventures.

Different types of BBQ tongs

If you are looking for the right BBQ tongs for your BBQ evening, you can choose from different types of tongs. The standard BBQ tongs are the most common and have two 'tongues' that you can squeeze to grip and turn food. So-called spatula tongs are useful for turning larger pieces of food such as fish fillets and burgers, while fork tongs are ideal for holding thin or delicate foods such as asparagus and shrimp.

Tongue tongs, also known as pincer tongs, are a versatile option because they allow you to easily grab smaller pieces of food without burning your hands. Clamp tongs are great for holding large pieces of meat, such as a whole chicken or a rib roast.

Whether you are a novice or a seasoned BBQ enthusiast, there is always a BBQ tong that suits you. Each of these BBQ tongs has unique benefits that make your grilling experience even better.

Materials BBQ tongs

BBQ tongs come in different materials and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Stainless steel is a common material for BBQ tongs because it is durable and easy to clean. In addition, stainless steel pliers are resistant to heat and corrosion. Aluminum pliers are lightweight and easy to handle, but are less durable than stainless steel pliers. However, they are cheaper and suitable for short-term use.

Silicone BBQ tongs are useful for handling delicate foods such as fish as they are soft and do not squeeze the food. They are also easy to clean and dishwasher safe. Wooden BBQ tongs are great for handling food on the grill because they do not conduct heat and therefore do not transfer heat to your hands. They also look stylish and are a nice addition to your BBQ tools.

Which material is best for you depends on the types of food you prepare and the frequency of use. If you regularly organize a BBQ evening and consider sustainability important, stainless steel BBQ tongs are the best choice. If you are more interested in avoiding burned hands and handling delicate foods, then silicone tongs or wooden tongs are the best option.

In short, BBQ tongs are indispensable tools for the enthusiastic BBQ enthusiast and the choice of a particular material depends on personal preferences and BBQ applications. Regardless of which material you choose, it is important to choose tongs that fit comfortably in your hand and make it easy to prepare your favorite BBQ dishes.
