It’s a BasterA baster is something I rarely use, but when you need one-you need one. This one has good suction, easy removable parts with an angled silicone tip. It works great! Recommended.

Perfect for “pulled’ mealsI am using this to make “pulled chicken” which is like pulled pork, but healthier! Or something like that. Regardless, they work well, and I am very happy to have these as an addition to my kitchen.

Great idea, but not so great implementationIf you wash by hand, and maybe even if you don’t, it’s impossible to clean the grooves along the interior of the handle. So if you ever lay the tongs flat or in some other orientation that allows juices/oils to flow in that direction, good luck getting that gunk out. If you always keep the hinge end facing up, this issue is prevented.Out of the package, the hinge point is a bit tricky to re-attach since it has tight tolerances. If you press down on the tip of the hinge end while sliding it closed, it works better than trying to lock it just by angling the handle. I bent it slightly to get a wider grab (its default is a little narrow), and now the hinge point is rather loose, though now it’s easy to re-attach…In terms of shredding it works well – better than the plastic claws I have.

Effective Tongs for All UsesThese are definitely heavier duty tongs than those salad tossers you pick up for a dollar. We use them as normal tongs, and haven’t gotten around to pulling pork with them yet, but it’s obvious that they’re going to last.At first I didn’t like the stamped edge on the inside, but those make it much easier to grab softer items (by biting in), so I’m glad it’s made the way it is. The opening of the tongs is a bit lacking, but you can flex the metal at the base to improve it if you want.Pulling them apart makes it much easier to clean and dry. The only draw-back is that they do tend to detach when in use if you use them in a specific way. Practice will make perfect, and it’s a minor drawback for having tongs that won’t bend in use.I definitely recommend. Not having the coiled spring at the base will contribute to a long life-span for the product, as it’s the tong handles themselves that are springing.

Best basting brush ever!I haven’t had a baster for several years since my last one was junk and I gave up on it… Somehow it seemed that every baster I got would be horrible about sucking liquid up and then it wouldn’t hold suction and would run back out the bottom. I saw that this baster had favorable reviews so I decided to give this kind of tool another shot, and I’m so glad I did.What I like about this baster:- First, there are two different tips: a sucker one that can be used to squirt/spread a controlled amount of liquid back out, and a basting brush tip. So great that you get both options.- The tips are angled for easier access into the edges a dish or to get under hard to reach places on a piece of meat.- The whole thing is silicone which means it’s temperature resistant (can be put in dishwasher, won’t melt in a hot pan as long as it is under 410 degrees, etc). The silicone is also stain and odor resistant.- There is a see through collection tube that has measurements in both ounces and ml – this baster tube can hold up to 1 1/8 ounces or 35ml.- This comes with a cleaning brush to help clean grease out with, which is a nice added touch and makes it easier to clean.- This feels like it will be durable.Honestly I have zero negative things to say other than I wish I would have ordered this sooner!I really like how you can control the flow of how much you let out to the point of it being measurable. I also have really enjoyed the brush tip so I can smear thicker sauces on with this instead of having them run back off down into the pan. I am thrilled I found this baster. It may seem like a silly thing to be excited about but it will make my holiday dinners so much easier.

Great for ThanksgivingI love to cook. I use this often. Not only for the traditional turkey but it also works great for basting meats in the slow cooker and adding small amounts of liquid to items cooking on it stove.

Very goodThought these would be smaller, but they’re quite big and the quality is great. Really makes shredding meat a lot easier. Definitely saves a lot of time.

Shred The Meat Bro!Sick of bear claws? Probably not, they’re awesome. HOWEVER, cleaning bear claws AND tongs, is annoying. This singular utensil helps save you a little time, and they work suprisingly well. I’ll give you another example: Using the traditional bear claws, your hands are going to get raw meat all up on them, and you should be washing them in between. If you were using these, you wouldn’t have to wash there either. So these are a solid time saver. They look nice. They work well. They’re dishwasher safe (top rack) and come apart easily for cleaning time + preventing rust on the connection. So far, so good!
