America's Test Kitchen ranks Oxo Good Grips as best but, those are also stainless type

This is what I use. Works great, easy to clean, lasts forever.

Whichever ones you get, always remember to give them 2 test clicks before every use.

I thought 3 clicks was the industry standard.
Unless you are clicking them toward someone then the faster and more clicks the better.

I've never tried but I probably could if I tried!

My big, fearsome ferocious Rottweiler used to run away and make the “why do you hate me?” face when I clicked tongs at him.

Naturally, I did it all the time.

It's actually 6. Three to condition it then three more for the test :wink:

I have the Weber tongs and they are pretty sturdy

Unless the wife is standing nearby, then one firm sqeeze of her behind after 2 fast clicks will suffice. I like this style. I have a long pair I'm partial to.

The cheap 16" ones are the way to go, IMO, besides little hot dog tongs for things like fried tacos.

I use this massive spatula much more.

These are the ones I have, 12" & 16" can't beat em. They also have an extra heavy duty tong, that's 18 gauge if you want to splurge and spend the extra 30 cents.
