When you’re looking for a pair of grill gloves, there are a few criteria to keep in mind. One, your intended use: 1. Are you planning on using these just for your grill, or for other kitchen-related uses. 2. What material feels best to you; do you want gloves that are rubber but lined with fabric or fully-silicone? Let’s get started!

The Artisan Griller Waterproof Gloves are made of a waterproof rubber exterior with a jersey-cotton lined interior. They are 14” long with added grip on the palm and fingers. These gloves offer waterproof protection and the most arm coverage of any glove on this list. They are perfect for boils or frying turkeys, as well as being a suitable grill companion.

13.7” length
The Geekhom Grilling Gloves are a waterproof silicone and are lined with cotton. They are 13.7” in length textured with small bumps to add grip with heat-protection up to 446 degrees. These gloves offer a lot of versatility. They are a bit more suitable for daily cooking tasks than the Artisan Griller Barbeque Gloves mentioned above. Plus they’re somewhat less bulky and much more visually appealing. These are also the least expensive gloves on this list, and come in an array of colors along with a loop to hang these on a hook in your kitchen or grill.

Bright Orange
The Ekogrips BBQ Oven Gloves are a full silicone glove that is heatproof to 425 degrees and dishwasher safe. They go up to most people’s forearms, so they provide decent arm coverage. These gloves are equally as versatile as the Geekhom Grilling Gloves, but are not lined with any sort of fabric. This could translate to less comfort for some buyers. Additionally, they only come in bright orange, which may be a dealbreaker to some. One benefit to the Ekogrips is that you can just toss them into the dishwasher when you’re finished with them, since there isn’t any fabric to worry about.

Most Versatile
The Grill Heat Aid Grill Gloves are made from the materials (Para-aramid and meta-aramid fibers) and are heat-protective to 932 degrees. Aramid fabric is known as high performance, heat resistant, and heavy duty. It is also known for its ability to withstand high heat and repeated use. Often, this fabric is used for firefighters’ clothing. A downside to these gloves is that they are slightly shorter in length compared to others on this list. That being said, these gloves are the most versatile gloves if you are looking to use them for your wood stove or fireplace as well as your grill or any other cooking purpose, especially handing cast iron. Since they aren’t made from rubber or silicone, they are significantly less prone to melting. They are the most expensive gloves on this list, but they are also the most unique.
In conclusion, these gloves are all quite different and some are better for achieving certain tasks than others. But this boils down to which one is the best grill glove. My overall winner is the Geekhom Grill Gloves for their price, color customization, and versatility. I would be comfortable doing most any grilling related task. They offer good heat-protection with the added comfort of a cotton lined interior.
