blackrose Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I don't have a Tippy ash carrier - I did look at them but they don't make them big enough for my stove's ash tray, so I sometimes have to carry a tray of hot ashes outside to empty. Hitherto I was using a welding glove, but it's just a piece of leather and the heat soon gets through to your hand. Has anyone else tried these? They're amazing. Highly recommended. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B076FXXQKJ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lampini Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Awesome - eggzactly what I've been looking for - big up Blackrose! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackrose Posted January 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) Glad it's of use. I thought others might like to know. They seem to range in price from about £11 to about £18. They looked like the same things to me so I just got the cheapest ones and they're excellent. They can be worn either on the right or left hand, so I've got one glove by the stove and one by the oven. I won't bother using my oven glove again.

Just be aware that if, like the Lakeland ones, they are a knitted fabric, hot water will go straight through and destroy the protection. Don't ask me how I know this ...

ronnietucker Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Nice! Just what I'm after for my new little stove. As I have to lift it's little lid off to pop in coal/wood. Thanks for the tip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob-M Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 A fraction of the price of the Weber ones I looked at but didn't buy due to the price. May get a pair of those for using with the BBQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I don't think they'd be any good with hot water. Aren't you supposed to use rubber washing up gloves for that?

They're meant for picking up hot things, whereas welding gloves keep the burning welding spatter off your hands and forearms. What's wrong with using leather welding gloves?

The juices run over the edge of the pan and into your palm. I admit I seem to be getting even more cack-handed as the years go by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only need a smidjin to stop it completely drying out then deglaze the pan on the stove top with water/stock/wine once the meat has been removed.

I think on this occasion I'd had a cover over it for some reason, no added water, just juices emerging from the meat. The alternative is to use a roasting bag to keep everything in, though not if you like your BCBs (Burnt Crispy Bits). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And crackling. You have to have crackling. If it’s pork 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
