text: It’s works well as far as protecting your hands from heat and looks great, but because the gloves are really thick it’s not ideal for wearing them while cooking on the grill because it’s cumbersome when you have to constantly close and open your hand such as when you are using the tongs during the grilling. So I only use them occasionally if I’m picking up something hot. Also since the gloves are not entirely covered in silicone, they are not made for handling food.
