Bamboo sticks that can be used for a variety of purposes

 A versatile, inexpensive option: Bamboo Sticks Shish Kabob Skewers

Long, round bamboo skewers are a great option for people who don't often skewer food. They are especially useful on camping trips or when staying in hotels where you may not want to carry or clean metal skewers. They are inexpensive, biodegradable, and usually very sharp. Kitchen Natural Bamboo Skewers also provide a lot of friction between the skewer and the food, making it easy to rotate all the food at once. I have found that 10 to 12 inch lengths are the most versatile.

But there are a few drawbacks that might make you consider upgrading to a reusable metal skewer.
The first is safety. Bamboo is a natural fiber that splits easily. This means you have to be extra careful when stringing food. On more than one occasion, I've had a fork split midway through a piece and had a splinter come out of the center and into my finger. Drawing blood while handling raw meat is not a good thing! But this BBQ Bamboo Skewers is a superior solution to that problem. It's 0.16" (4mm) thicker in diameter than most BBQ skewers on the market, so it can withstand over 3 lbs of weight without breaking. Very tough!

Second, the wooden skewers cannot withstand prolonged or very high heat - at least, not on the exposed ends. Soaking them in water for half an hour or so will help, and to address this drawback, Grill are designed in lengths long enough to protect your hands from burns when Grilling large amounts of food.

Bamboo Sticks Shish Kabob Skewers are a great partner for Grilling!https://www.amazon.com/Garsum-Assorted-Renewable-Resources-Suitable/dp/B08RYQRKS6/
