Know before you buy
Unlike tongs that squeeze or crush food, the pigtail uses a curved, sharp point to hook into the meat. This allows you to flip large cuts or delicate vegetables with a simple twist, minimizing the risk of tearing or losing juices.
Yes, the handle is crafted from all-natural wood, which stays cooler to the touch than metal handles. However, you should avoid direct contact with open flames to preserve the finish of the wood.
No, this tool is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the wood handle and the stainless steel shaft, we recommend hand washing it with mild soap and drying it immediately after use.
After hand washing, ensure the shaft is completely dry before storing it. Because the tool features a sharp point, you can use the integrated hanging loop to store it safely away from other utensils when not in use.
The handle features a textured grip designed to mimic the feel of a baseball bat, which offers excellent leverage and control. It is specifically engineered to prevent slipping, even when you are turning heavier cuts of meat.
