Lid Lifter 35cm - Valhal Outdoor
- 35 cm length keeps your hands away from the heat
- Hooks under the lid's edge and stays stable
- Works on almost any cast iron lid
Anyone who cooks with cast iron over fire opens the lid several times per dish, and that lid is heavy, glowing hot and often covered in ash. With a towel or tongs that gets shaky, and that is exactly when ash or fat tips into the food. This 35cm lid lifter from Valhal Outdoor hooks under the rim, so you lift the lid straight up and set it aside without spilling anything.
Why this tool
Your hands stay 35cm from the coals, and the lid stays level while you move it, exactly what you need when cooking with a dutch oven over the fire of your kamado bbq or fire bowl.
- Lift the lid straight up, so it stays level
- Keep your hands well away from coals, flames and hot rims
- Prevent ash and soot from falling into the dish
- Also usable for setting the lid aside as a baking sheet
How to use it
Place the hook under the raised rim of the lid, raise the handle steadily and keep the lid level. Then turn away from the pan before lowering the lid. Wipe the lifter clean after use and store it dry: coal dust and grease otherwise slowly eat away at the metal. For long sessions over open fire, wear gloves anyway.
