    Several years ago, my M-I-L got all the sons/S-I-L’s “The Ove Glove” as a Christmas gift. It was more of a gag gift, but we all ended up loving them, so we got a matching glove for the other hand the following Christmas. They really do work well. I love mine for grilling.

    Fast forward to yesterday. I had my Weber stoked up, and I set my glove on the table next to the grill and ran in to grab a plate full of pork chops. Apparently, my beloved Ove Glove blew into the grill, and while they do a great job protecting you from heat, they are not fireproof! Whoops! )

    My sincere condolences on your loss.

    BTW, my M-I-L gave one to me also…

    I used to have one and need to get another one. I love how charred and greasy they get from using them. The best part is that they are gloves and not mitts, which is nice when grilling. I just don’t tell Michelle I sometimes same time and flip and move things around with that grimey looking thing.

    I feel for your loss. But I would be careful posting this this day in age you may be arrested for improper care of a ove glove.

    Oh, and whatever you do don’t replace with the improved ‘steam proof’ Ove Glove. They just aren’t the same. I returned them immediately.

    Good to know. I would have because I’ve been bitten by steam on multiple occasions!

    They sew a layer of “something” that sounds and feels like plastic inside the glove. Makes it stiffer. I didnt care for it but you might?

    No thank you. I’ll go old-school.
