Best grilling utensils?

trlowder

I'm looking for a good, sturdy set of grilling utensils.....spatula, tongs, fork. It seems all that I've had lately bend in the handle and it drives me crazzy!
Don't really need a set.....will buy individually. Just looking for good quality with sturdy shaft/handle. Please list your suggestions...thanks.

I use just plain jane tongs (18") about 4 bucks ea, and a long bladed griddle type spatula. both were purchased from a local restaurant supply store. The tongs cover about 90% of the egg work.

Forget the fork, serves no purpose but to ruin things.
Tongs: get a small/med pair. No frills, no large ones.
Spatula: a wide one for burgers and fish only, otherwise use tongs.

I purchased tongs at Business Costco. They are 16" and very reasonably priced, I bought a few. I prefer the longer ones especially for working with steaks.

I like a real wide, long handle fish spatula (used for alot more than fish) Fred's music and Barbeque supply has them.

I think forks are useless.

I only use a set of tongs and a pig tail hook flipper.

i've only used tongs and my gloves to turn steaks and roasts. I have a spatula, but I haven't cooked burgers yet.

I prefer manual tongs, as opposed to the spring loaded tongs. They aren't as long, but I feel more comfortable using them.

Stainless Steel,Long handles.Good FIREPROOF gloves.Fat SPAT and HD tongs!Done! Restraunt supply stores are a good bet.

I like these by Weber.

The three on the left are a set and the two large spatulas are sold separately. They are well made, the largest spatula is a fish turner but is rigid enough to lift a large butt on and off the grill. They are all about 16" long.
