Know before you buy
Yes, the silicone bristles are heat-resistant up to 500°F, making them safe for use while grilling. However, avoid leaving the rosewood handle directly over open flames to prevent scorching.

Unlike cotton mops that can fray or trap bacteria, this silicone version is more durable and hygienic. The nubs on the silicone bristles are specifically designed to hold and release sauce efficiently without the shedding associated with traditional fiber mops.
