I like these kind of forks, but would never use them to poke at meat on the
grill. I use a long grill spatula or long grill tongs. I also have a long
grill fork which I rarely use. Piercing meat while it's cooking is not
really a good idea. When it's ready to remove from the grill, that's a
different matter.
