10 Best BBQ Gloves UK 2023 | Weber, Mountain Grillers and More

Silicone gloves that are comfortable and flexible? Sounds like the perfect combination to us, and one that this pair from Dualeco have mastered. Despite being made mostly from silicone, the soft fleece interior and fabric cuffs mean they won't feel at all uncomfortable to wear. 

They are waterproof, which not only makes them great for cooking with boiling water and steam, but it also means that they are machine washable. Saving you this time and effort means your gloves can always be fresh for your next barbecue, ready for you when you want to pick up the tongs. 

Another incredibly heat-resistant option, these gloves are made from a material that has all the grip of rubber but manages to be a lot more breathable. In addition to the grip provide by the material itself, it has a rough-textured surface to make things even more secure. 

Not being made from leather means these long gloves are super easy to wipe clean, and as a result are a more hygienic alternative. These versatile gloves are just as good for flipping your steak as they are for flipping coals, plus you can get them in two different lengths. 

While they may look similar to other choices on this list, the thing that makes these gloves stand out is their incredible heat resistance. Testing showed that they are resistant up to 932°C for 15 seconds, a temperature that you won't even find on the grill of your barbecue! 

The aluminium layer lies partly behind this anti-heat super-strength, adding substantial insulation to the long gauntlets. They might not have any specific silicone grip, but these gloves are still slip resistant thanks to the special suede material you can find on the fingers and palms. 

The ergonomic design makes these gloves a good choice for people who know they'll be barbecuing for hours on end. The soft cotton and flexible silicone means you get optimal freedom of movement, just what you need if you're sipping a beer as you barbecue. 

If you're slipping these gloves on quickly, you don't need to worry about which hands they end up on as they can go on either. They also have hanging loops, something that not all gloves of this style have. 

Heat can get through any gaps it can find, but the welted seams and strong stitches on these gloves means you have nothing to worry about. These gloves are designed for welding in addition to barbecues, so they are well-prepared for dealing with the hottest of temperatures. 

Extra heat protection is added in the form of a layer of aluminium insulation, which reflects heat away from the hands. This means that vulnerable areas like the palm, thumb crutch and fingertips are kept extra safe. 

These gloves are another entry on this list from the barbecue brand Weber, but this time in a style which is much more lightweight and easier to wear. The silicone palms add the grip you need when carrying heavy items, and the soft cotton lining will make you feel comfortable while doing so. 

Though good quality, these gloves aren't cheap, especially considering they don't bring anything new or exciting to the table. They also have no loops for storing, which could be irritating if you want to be able to hang them. 

The big bonus of these gloves is that they can be washed in the dishwasher along with all your other dirty barbecue utensils. This makes keeping them clean and hygienic really simple, a necessary thing when you're using your gloves to handle food. 

The heavy-duty silicone that covers these does a great job at stopping heat in its tracks, but it does mean that these gloves lack flexibility and prohibit movement. Plus, they are designed for men but only come in one fit, which makes the sizing a little confusing. 

For sunny barbecues on hot days, you're going to want the lightest gloves you can get away with while still feeling fully protected. These gloves are so light and flexible you'll forget you're wearing them, and their ambidextrous design means you can wear them on whichever hand you like. 

The sleeves on these gloves are short, especially when compared to other gloves on this list, so you will need to be careful of your forearms when using them. 

If you're into your barbecuing, you'll recognise this brand instantly. Weber are a market leader when it comes to outdoor grilling, and they make plenty of accessories to assist this activity. These gloves are much softer than most on this list, more resembling oven gloves in their look and feel. 

A mitt without any fingers won't give you as much control as a glove does, something to take into account if you are prone to being clumsy. It is also not the best value for money as you only get one mitt for the price, meaning if you want a set, you're going to have to spend double. 

With their cosy fleece lining, these are some of the most comfy leather barbecue gloves on this list. The suede outer layer is also super soft, but this softness doesn't mean there's a lack of protection. In fact, the padded palms ensure that you don't feel the heat. 

There aren't any loops to hang these gloves up, so you won't be able to use that as a storage method, and because they are made from leather, this is a pair to avoid for people who don't wear animal-derived products.
