Fire Wire Stainless Steel Flexible Grilling Skewer, Set of 4

Ordered these skewers as a gift for my boyfriend's parents who are very into grilling. First time I'd seen these was on Woot.com and since then all over the place. We used them for dinner over the weekend. They are very long, easy to thread food onto, very easy to work with on the grill and unloading food once cooked. Fun and versatile, very practical for snaking around a small space or around other food. Overall, easy to work with: food flipped easily and did not move around on the skewer. Quick clean-up. Recommended product!

Allow me to start by telling you that, by 2012, the technology in skewers should be top notch and beyond improvement. These Firewire Grilling Skewers represent that penultimate achievement. With that said, I'll try and give these a fair review.

I'm going to make a handful of assumptions. At least one of these probably applies to you.

1. You like to grill out and have a pretty good foundation regarding how to put grill marks on meat and vegetables.

2. You like kabobs.

3. You have have or have had a problem with one or more of the following:

a. burned yourself on old metal skewers

b. burned up cheap wooden skewers

c. freezer burned a kabob because the skewer broke through the freezer bag

d. can't close your grill because your skewers are too long, etc.

If these describe you, please continue reading.

Pros:

1. It holds a LOT of food. A single skewer holds two full, marinated kabobs from Whole Foods with room to spare. I could probably cook 10 to 12 kabobs worth of food on a set of 4.

2. The tip of the skewer is rigid, but not sharp. Which means, you can use it to poke through the food, but it won't poke through the freezer bag. No leaks. No freezer burn.

3. They're flexible. So you're not limited to having your grilled items in a straight line. In practice, this means lots more food over the same fire.

4. You can leave the ends outside of the grill. Leaving the ends cool enough to handle.

5. The parts of the wire inside the grill don't burn up.

6. They're dishwasher safe. C'mon, half the reason you're cooking outside is because you don't want to clean the kitchen.

Cons:

1. Amazon Prime Shipping took two days.

2. I didn't find them sooner.

These are amazing. If you don't own them, you should. =)

I cook mostly for one so I have a really small Weber propane grill. These Fire Wires make it easy to make the most of the space because I can make any shape with them; they also help the food to cook more evenly because I can snake them from hotter to cooler parts of the grill as needed.

They are a little thick for certain seafood; unless you're doing jumbo shrimp they may not work as well; smaller shrimp is a little harder to to load and harder to get off the skewer line without breaking them. I find that deveining but leaving the shrimp in the shell helps.

I like that they are reusable, no more burnt sticks either. They clean up easily with a good soak or coil them up in the silverware basket in the dishwasher.

Pleased with this purchase and highly recommended.
