Silicon Basting Brushes

I’ve been using one of these new fangled silicone basting brushes for awhile now. They really do work a lot better than traditional brushes. Instead of horse hair (or yak, or monkey, or whatever the hell those brushes are made of) this type of basting brush’s “bristles” are made of dangly strands of heat-proof silicone. No more brush hairs in your food, and no more burnt ends.
I’ve found they work best with thicker sauces, especially barbecue sauce, honey, and the like. The model pictured here is fancy, shiny, and French. I’ve got another model with a dog ear shape that works better, but doesn’t look nearly as hi-tech.
Best of all, you can throw these in the dishwasher for easy cleaning. It really beats trying to get the grease and gunk out by hand in the sink, and is probably safer than my old method of just letting the cat lick it off.
