I have been using this branded glove for years, and my originals have seen the test of time, punishment and abuse.
I did however have to retire (I only ever purchased two pairs) one pair, after my dog got hold of em during the night once upon a time, and damaged them beyond repair  .
Keep out of reach!!!! especially from dogs as these gloves absorb all the lovely scents and oils of good BBQ.
That said, I cant talk highly enough about these.
They have fantastic thermal resisting abilities (Kevlar and Nomex)protecting against screaming hot objects coming straight off the grill.
Being five fingered too, gives great feel to the hand, as well as security and piece of mind when hold of dangerously hot items.....
Soooo, that latest Ebay 50% off sale, I just couldn't resist buying a few extra pairs.....
Now, I wont have to chase down that single pair that are never where you thought you left em  and....
..... I will now have gloves stationed all over my bbq's working area...
Might even put a pair in the kitchen for the missus to use 
They arrived today (painfully slow postage )

Hmm, I have seen these around.
Will they handle the ten metre walk taking a hot pan from the BBQ to the kitchen?
I currently only use tea towels but I sure do mess the tea towels up getting a good grip. Particularly with baking pans full of meat spuds and fat.

I usually use both gloved hands to pull a piping hot tray off, and as my walk is 10+ metres, the tray is placed down then, I whip the left glove of, and use that as the heat buffer then grip with the right.
For all other work over a hot fire (placing/removing a heated CI grate), these gloves are magic

They'll handle that no problems.
I got some a few months ago via eBay. Cheap at 19 bucks the pair. On my front step 26 all up.
Can't fault them so far. Better than riggers gloves for sure.
If they get wet let them dry out well before using them again or they'll steam the skin off your hands.

 Interesting. I've always just used a spare pair of garage mitts, no heat problems but not exactly brilliant in terms of any feeling. Cheers |

$10.00/pair welders gloves from Bunnys are my choice, particularly when I'm emptying the chimney full of hot charcoal, and getting the spit rod off the spit.
