OXO Good Grips Nylon Fork, Black

I actually don't use this for meat.I stir my rice with it.

If you are a serious cook this product is ideal. Perfect for not damaging the interior of your nonstick pots.

THIS is a GREAT producr/fork!9

All my old forks just faded away - I don't know where - to be replaced by tongs. I must have a dozen pairs of tongs which I never use, all different lengths, some metal, some rubber-tipped. Some even have fingers, and they're useless, too. Food falls out of 'em, or you smash the food, there's no controlling a pair of tongs. You can't even set them down - they just flip over or roll away. I think I just kept buying them in hopes of finding a pair I could actually USE!I was going through my utensils the other day and I thought, "I have all these tongs, but I don't have a single cooking fork."So I came looking for one, but I couldn't find any. Which really ticked me off. Did you know that, if you search for "cooking fork," Amazon doesn't have any? Neither do those folks over at Google - you have to look for a BBQ fork just to get in the right section. You can forget about your local grocery, Target, Home Depot, or other department store. They have NONE! (Where did they all go?)When I got to this section, I found all you cooking fork connoisseurs debating the fine points of stiffness vs. flexibility, the number and the spacing of tines, and judging them based upon the Bacon Scale (who knew there even was such a thing?). I just wanted a fork that was long enough to let me spear my food in a hot pan without burning my fingers.So I just ordered this Oxo, cause it's a name I know. I don't know if it's any better or worse than any other cooking fork out there. But when I took this bad boy out of the package and used it for the first time, I said "This is what's been missing from my kitchen all these years!" I could see my mother, my aunts, and both grandmothers at their stoves, forks in hand. I could envision the first cave woman who tied a couple of sticks together to make herself a cooking fork, because one HAD to be made! And I knew I had made the right decision and I am so happy with my new cooking fork! Just jump in and get yourself one - you know you want it.

Bought this to be able to lift hot food items out of my air fryer and electric skillet easier. Is very sturdy and does exactly what I needed one for. Not sure I would try to lift a heavy roast or whole chicken with it but for just regular sized food items it's perfect.

In our house we are making different types of meals all the time! I found this fork to be sturdy enough to hold three to four pieces of bacon at once during the flip to the other side without falling off.It is great for placing french toast from the batter to the pan. I've even used it to take a small roast out of the oven to the plate without having the roast fall to the floor!A great safety feature is it has a long enough handle assuring that you don't get burned on the edge of the pan or griddle.I wouldn't leave it on the edge of the pan during any cooking process. It is heat resistant but the material is Nylon.I've bought three of these forks in total so far and gave two away as gifts! They love them as well so why don't you give this great fork a try - you won't be disappointed!

It’s hard to find a big plastic fork in any retail store. I’ve always liked the oxo brand because of the quality and durability. This fork is sturdy, the tines are rigid and do the job with bacon, pork chops, etc., in a frying pan.

Quality is what you would expect from OXO
