Can I pull pork with BBQ gloves?

Yes — use waterproof silicone gloves for pulling pork directly. The waterproofing protects against hot juices, and the food-safe silicone means direct meat contact is safe. Alternatively, use insulated rubber gloves (like dish gloves) under aramid gloves for heat protection plus waterproofing.

How do I clean BBQ gloves?

Silicone gloves wash with soap and water or in the dishwasher. Aramid fiber gloves can usually be machine washed on gentle cycle — check manufacturer instructions. Leather gloves should be wiped clean and conditioned. Never put leather gloves in the washer or dryer. Replace any glove that shows thinning, holes, or charring.
