After discovering that a whopping 450,000 Americans suffer from burns in and around their homes each year, BBQ Pals decided it was time to somehow make a difference to change this statistic.

Providing a product that could contribute to our own safekeeping as well as the welfare of friends, family loved ones, our mission and goal is to extend that level of concern and care to every home across the country.

As caring individuals, we brought it upon ourselves to get involved with a product to protect the hands of those who are cooking for our nation. Our neighbors, people we know, or don’t know, the residents of our town, city or state and nation all need extra care when cooking.

What’s Behind BBQ Pals and their Silicone Grill Gloves?

The fundamental and driving ethical influences behind BBQ Pals silicone grill gloves comes from our deep and unwavering concern for our fellow human beings.

The statistics revealed by the American Burn Association reports an alarming amount of burn incidents, and these do not include the minor burns that are either not reported or are taken care of at home.

As a manufacturer of silicone grill gloves, our motto conveys our true desire to do whatever we can to limit kitchen, barbeque or camp fire burns.

Cooking can be dangerous, as is made evident by the annual burn statistics. Steam, boiling water, baking, frying, barbecuing, braising, grilling, roasting, stewing and all manner of cooking styles can create havoc with burns if the right equipment and practices are not taken into account.

Wearing the appropriate oven gloves serves as a barrier between your hands and extreme heat. Preventing the suffering that burns inflict is our mission and motivation.

We proudly stand behind our grill gloves and are inspired about their ability to prevent harm to those who are innocently going about their daily cooking routine.

Being cooks ourselves, we tried and tested our cooking gloves and made sure we were completely satisfied with their performance before advancing towards manufacturing

Our inspiration is summed up in the following quote by John Wesley:

Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as you ever can.

Enjoy your cooking experience and put yourself out of harms way by implementing safe practices and securing your own set of BBQ Pals silicone grill gloves.
