Lodge Tongs

Move hot coals and sizzling food over live fire without putting your hand in the heat.

Price$14.95

Published by Lodge Cast Iron: Tongs (A5-4). The price reference comes from the maker and can change.

Why this shape

Lodge builds these for the fire rather than the stovetop: stainless throughout, so there is no wood scale or plastic joint to char when you rest them across a grate, and nothing to trap grease where a coating would peel. Coals and food get the same tool, which is what you want at a fire where you are already carrying too much.

Good for
Live fire, charcoal, campfire cooking and anything where a plastic joint would melt.
Not for
Delicate plating — full stainless with no cushioning is a blunt instrument next to a fine kitchen tong.
Care
Lodge publishes these as easy to clean stainless; wash and dry so the hinge does not carry ash into the next cook.
