Hand-Forged BBQ Pigtail Meat Flipper – Artisan Barbecue Tool

Flip your meat the traditional way.
This hand-forged BBQ Pigtail Meat Flipper gets its name from the curl at the end — shaped like a pig’s tail — which gives it both character and utility. Designed to turn, lift, and adjust meat over the grill or open flame, this tool keeps your hands safely away from the heat while offering precision control for steaks, sausages, or ribs.

Each flipper is individually forged by hand using time-honored blacksmithing techniques, making it both functional cookware and a work of art. Measuring roughly 18 inches long, it’s built from solid mild steel and finished naturally for durability and rustic charm.

Whether you’re a backyard pitmaster or a campfire cook, this tool is designed to perform and last for generations.

Care & Maintenance

• Cleaning: Hand wash only and dry thoroughly after each use.
