Latex gloves at home strikes again. The meat looks delicious. But why the gloves, just why? They're unnecessary and you just come off as pretentious.

And not to mention they all end up in a landfill.

I think the only one coming off as pretentious is you

I wear these gloves when I'm working with something I don't want to get on my hands. Dirt, oil, grease, raw meat, cooked meat, lacquer or enamel paints, resin, brake fluid, coolant, etc.

If there were reusable options for each of these use-cases then I'd look into getting them.

Yeah. OP is the root cause of pollution.

I use gloves every time I smoke meat. I just got sick of needing to wash my hands so often. And for a 12 hour cook I usually use just about three sets. They’re nice too because you can get liners to protect your hands from heat.

Sorry about the three or so pairs of gloves in the landfill once a month.
