Abstract: |
A combination barbecue grill brush and mitt includes a barbecue grill brush and a heat-protective mitt. The grill brush comprises a body having a hand-fitting hand grip (10), an intermediate section (12), and a head section (14). The head section comprises a scraping edge (20) and a bristled surface (22). The intermediate section is angled so as to dispose the head below the hand grip. A mitt (16) is positioned about the hand grip, the mitt including a first end (28) having an opening to permit insertion of a hand of a user, a second end (30) having an opening for insertion of the hand grip of the grill brush, and an optional inner lining (24). The hand grip is secured within the mitt with a rivet (18) such that the mitt's material is gathered around and hugs the intermediate section to substantially prevent hot gases, sparks, and ash from entering the mitt, and an optional reinforcing collar (32) to provide improved attachment of the second end to the intermediate section and further prevent hot gases, sparks, and ash from entering the mitt.
