The Grill Hook provides "pin-point" control for turning food on a barbecue grill. It's not only fast and easy but it is also a lot of fun. Using a hook has the added benefit of keeping your hand a comfortable distance from a hot grill (so you barbecue the meat, not your hand). But "No" you say. "I don't want to let the juices out of the meat by using a hook." Well consider this: more juice can be released by squeezing the meat with tongs than by poking it with a hook. When you use a hook the sharp stainless steel tips hook the edge of the meat, not the center where the juices accumulate. The point being that the hook will just barely penetrate the meat on the seared edge where the juices have been sealed in. The Grill Hook provides greater control, even with heavy cuts of meat. Use with ribs, steaks, chicken and tri-tip.
