Weber Grilling Gloves & Aprons

Weber Grilling Gloves and Smoker Gloves

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the...backyard? Grills are notorious for high heat (and great-tasting meats). Whether you're searing steaks or cooking brisket low and slow, it's important to protect all of your fingers so that you can grill another day. That's why Weber grilling gloves and aprons are made for ultimate protection. And while they're designed to match Weber's stylish black and red logo, the true strength of these mitts lies in their heavy fabric and insulated designs.

Heat Resistant Gloves for the Grill

Before you pick out the glove that's best for you, it's important to take into account your grilling style, go-to dishes, and how hot your grill gets. And there are some things you should never do, even if you're wearing Weber grill gloves. Touching the grates or picking up hot food with your hands are both off-limits no matter what. But consider your Weber grill. Do you have a large model with a lot of depth, like the Weber Summit? If so, reaching inside may singe off the occasional patch of arm hair. The easiest remedy is a heat-resistant quilted mitt that goes up your forearm. The extra-long cuff will keep your fingers, wrists, and arms safe.

What if your dishes require a bit more dexterity? If you've ever tried to flip a burger with a mitt, you'll know it's not easy. That's why the geniuses behind Weber smart thermometers designed their own silicone five-finger gloves. These grilling gloves are designed to stand up to indirect heating. On most grillers, they fit past the wrist for extra protection, and the articulated shape allows for flipping, moving, and shifting foods around with grill utensils. Other semi-heat-resistant accessories, like heavy aprons, can help keep hot oil (and more importantly, stains) off while you're grilling up filets, burgers, and other grease-heavy meals. Make sure you pick one that's machine washable, as this one's going to get a little dirty. Other features like pockets and towel loops can help keep necessary items nearby in a pinch, too.
