Wooden BBQ tongs – beech tongs in 40, 50 and 60 cm

The coals are glowing, the sausages are on the grill – and there you are, face flushed, standing far too close to the heat. With wooden barbecue tongs available in three lengths up to 60 cm, you can turn meat and veg while keeping a comfortable distance from the coals – just made for your barbecue evening. The Bütic Exclusiv beech wood tongs feel warm and secure in your hand, with no hot metal surfaces at all.

What changes for you

• You can turn steaks and sausages without burning your fingers – because with a length of 40, 50 or 60 cm, you choose exactly the distance from the heat that suits your barbecue.
• No more food slipping away – thanks to the milled grooves that hold meat and veg securely in the tongs.
• You'll still be happy to reach for these tongs years from now – because the handle is glued and screwed, and the sturdy beech wood can take quite a lot.
• You'll be kind to your non-stick pans and wok – because wood is much gentler on the surface than metal tongs.
• You hold a smoothly sanded natural material in your hand – pleasantly warm, easy to grip and splinter-free.

Why these barbecue tongs make a difference every day

When you barbecue, the right tool often decides whether you stand relaxed at the grill or fumble about in a rush. With the right length in your hand, you can turn things calmly, one piece at a time, while staying at a safe distance from the coals. And because the wooden tongs work just as well in a frying pan or wok, they stay in use long after barbecue season – as kitchen tongs that are always hanging within easy reach.

Material & finish

The tongs are made from genuine beech wood – a hardwood that is naturally firm and long-lasting. The surface is sanded smooth and left untreated, so not oiled: you feel the pure wood in your hand. The handle is glued and additionally screwed, so the tongs stay stable even when you grip firmly. Because wood is a purely natural material, every pair of tongs turns out slightly different: shade, grain and small knots vary. That's not a flaw – it makes every piece unique.

How to use the BBQ tongs

• At the barbecue: with the 60 cm tongs, you can turn sausages and steaks even on a large grill – and your hands stay well away from the heat.
• At the wok: as wok tongs, they grip veg and meat securely while you stir – without scratching the surface.
• In the kitchen: as cooking tongs, they let you turn schnitzel and fried potatoes in the pan without having to pierce them – so the juices stay in the meat.
• In everyday catering and hospitality: at the buffet or market stall, you can serve sausages and grilled food quickly and neatly – the three lengths cover everything from a tabletop barbecue to a large grill.

Good to know about beechwood

Beech has always been one of the classic kitchen woods – wooden spoons and chopping boards are traditionally made from it, because the wood is hard, dense and keeps its shape. These very qualities also make it a good choice for barbecue tongs: they stand up to a firm grip while being gentle on grills, woks and non-stick pans.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: after barbecuing, simply rinse the tongs by hand with warm water and let them dry thoroughly. Avoid the dishwasher and long soaking – that way the untreated beech wood stays smooth, keeps its shape and looks good for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Is the wood treated or oiled? No, the tongs are untreated and not oiled – just sanded smooth so they feel pleasant in your hand.

Which length is right for me? For the frying pan and tabletop barbecue, the 40 cm tongs are usually enough; at a kettle barbecue, 50 cm is comfortable; and with intense heat or a large grill, the 60 cm tongs give you the most distance.

Can the tongs go in the dishwasher? Better not: natural wood is best washed briefly by hand and left to dry thoroughly – that way it lasts much longer.

Why do my tongs look different from the picture? Wood is a natural material: colour, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece – every pair of tongs is unique.

In the end, it's not about a pair of beech wood tongs. It's about the moment you stand relaxed at the barbecue, turning food at your own pace, while the smell from the grill is already drawing your guests to the table. Simply choose the length that suits your barbecue.
