Flip Your Steaks By Hand

I’m often up late at night. The TV is on and you can imagine what kinds of ads I see.

Everything from “enhancement” products to hearing aids to – well – THIS:

It’s the Grill Glove!

Seriously, you put it on, reach right on that hot grill, grab your steak, flip it and all is well!

It’s even dishwasher safe. Bonus.

I don’t know what I think about this. Will I accidently burn part the of my arm that’s not covered by the glove as I reach over HOT FLAMES?

Also, do I want to actually pick up my steak with my hand as it is cooking? I’m worried about the “ick” factor here. Will it feel mushy?  

On the other hand, Anthony Sullivan is endorsing it. So you know it has to be top notch.

Who’s Anthony Sullivan again?

What do you think? Do you have any experience with the Grill Glove? Or is this a flash in the pan?

Steak Tips From Your iPhone!

Okay, this is so cool. Technology absolutely rocks.

The Kansas City Steak Company now has a free iPhone app that lets you select your favorite cut of meat (you know, T-bone, filet mignon, etc.), choose a thickness and how well done you’d like your steak and then the app’s timer will tell you how long to cook it and when to flip it.

Genius.

Besides that, it has tons of recipes, grilling tips and a steak reference library. How awesome is that?

Go here, check it out, then download the app on your phone and have fun playing with it. It’s free and it’s my new obsession. 

Let me know what you think. I’m dying to know if you try it out this Labor Day weekend!!
