Recently I've read some news article about some people accidentally consuming a wire bristle from the commonly used wire grill brushes. It was alarming to say the least because that's all we have been using to clean the grill. Here are just a few articles in the past year regarding the dangers of using wire brushes to clean your grill: CNN, Fox news, CBC news, and an article from consumer reports. So what are we to do? The solution is to use a wooden scraper!
This particular BBQ scraper being reviewed is by produced by MollenLiving, a company focused on producing lifestyle products that embody the Scandinavian way of life, and manufactured in Canada. This BBQ scraper is made from Canadian birch hardwood, making it durable enough to use to scrape off hard encrusted food debris on your grill, and without risk of scratching even the most delicate of cooking surfaces.
Theoretically, this thin edge in the photo above and below are supposed to conform to the shape of your grilling grates as you use it because it claims to burn the pattern into the wood. Since using it only once, I cannot speak to that. However, it seems to make sense that it would eventually bend to for your unique grill pattern with use since wood has some give.
The edge is thin and sharp. The sharpness allows you to get into crevices and hard to reach areas. The scraper features a long handle to enable leverage to really put the pressure to scrape off food debris.
At the end of the handle, they have beautifully branded their logo design. It is not just printed on either. This is a nicely made wooden scraper. I do think it is slightly expensive for a piece of wood and wish the price were a bit lower. However, if you search on Amazon for wooden BBQ scrapers, they are more expensive that the cost of this one. This would definitely be my pick for anyone wanting to try out a wooden BBQ scraper so they don't risk ingesting a wire bristle.
