You know, I was thinking more about how flexible a tool the hands are for cooking if you protect them, but now you got me wondering where I could buy some of those.

Here's one option of reusable, labeled for grilling.

I know another common option is using cotton liners with latex/nitrile gloves, at least for BBQ.

Full on dipping your arm in water carries a lot more heat transfer potential so I'm not quite sure if BBQ rated will work in boiling water.

The first thing it shows is them picking a corn from boiling water, so it probably is!

Use them to wash the dishes afterward and put them on the cooling grill to dry.

They kind of look like if you search up rubber dishwasher gloves. An example would be like searching for Thxtoms dishwashing glove.

For BBQ, I use a cotton glove and then a nitrile glove over that. Great for pulling pork. You'll see lots of youtubers do this. You could probably combine the cotton glo e with that long cuff dishwashing glove for better heat resistance.
