I use a pair of multigrips
Yep same here...... a large set of multi grips...... also welding gloves, and a long handle shovel, pretty much covers everything.

Welding gloves and these , the U shaped one fits the camp oven lid so it doesn't tilt and drop coals into the oven .

The top one pictured comes standard with an OzPig as part of it's kit.  Doubles as a lid lifter, a wood poker, and what ever else I can think of ... dual purpose and all.

Just DO NOT put your hot camp oven onto a plastic cutting board ... it gets rather embarrasing from there onwards ... and your partner continually brings it up every chance he gets ... now to find another purpose for a warped, melted cutting board ...

Welding gloves. Good for pulling baked potatoes out of coals, handling hot sticks, even welding!

Me too...keeps the hands happy ;D ;D

Welding glove , locking pliers and what my son calls the " fire master's stick " [ a very old wooden tent pole about 4' long with a steel spike at the business end ] used for poking the coals to where you want them ,also great for marshmellows ,,,, kids love the idea of " fire master's stick" ,seems to stop willy nilly bits and pieces being thrown onto the campfire as who has the stick is the one in control of the fire ,, lol.
