I have so tongs, initially proved rather a disappointment, quite unfit for sausage. She lay long rum in the corner. When I first purchased an oven and a poker needed, it turned out that this is an ideal instrument for my oven. You can stir the embers, but you can grab and fold even a burning log or briquette so. For this purpose I would give 5 stars, but since it is sold as grill tongs, I give 3 stars.
