There is another good reason that metal spoons are used in BIRS
The owner or manager often will sit in the eating area, generally observing the ambiance etc .When he hears the spoons grating around  he knows the cooks are working and not loafing about :D
Wooden spoons are quiet

I noticed straight away Chewy. Almost posted yesterday,, "We've (c2g0) had a huge amount of questions about chef spoons"? ? We've!
i didn't believe that for one second.

Don't know if other members have noticed, but c2g seems to be prompted into giving his "take" on current topical threads, like this one,
but doesn't actually post ANY of his videos or get involved in discussion on cR0.
But no doubt, he will start selling Chef's Spoons next.

Hi Chewy

It just so happens, he is selling chefs spoons!!!

Are you sure it's all about length, Ray ?  My understanding (from a number of sources) is that the real skill lies in what one /does/ with the tool, rather than with in its length (or width) per se ...

Phil, there is no need to start questioning Ray's length now is there ;)

But yes, as you quite correctly point out, one needs a good technique too :)

It helps if your tool is of and adequate length and of course you've got to have a good technique but it does also matter exactly what you're putting it in, some would say ;)

He he, I was wondering when we would all fall into "Finbar Saunders mode" of Viz fame ;D

Funny story, (inkeeping with the theme I suppose) Bumped into my wifes ex in the pub the other night, and he asked me how his second hand "Chefspoon" was doing?  I replied, the first 3 inches was a little bit worn, but the rest of it was brand new  ;)

Nuff sed 8)

solarsplace,

for info handle tip to spoon tip is 17", Handle tip to start of spoon base 13".

i think the length is important. not just for the flames/heat but in scraping around the pan rim. it's sort of easier to close the angle.
