Cotton Butchers Cooking Twine

Perfect to get the job done

This roll of cooking twine is a 10 out of 10 for me. Looks just like what father used and he did own a locker and was a butcher. This holds my chickens and turkeys perfectly and roast beef and crown roast of pork. I like the non color, not bleached white, and had no smell and is perfectly soft enough to not hurt your hands. I have several things I use this for and is very versatile, but this time my spouse is not allowed to move it from the kitchen. We now have a roll in the garage and the basement, but it is like scissors and it is always gone. This time I put it in a tall canning jar and drilled a hole in the top to pull the string out. When cooking I hate touching whole twine and contaminating it. Also, use this to tie scissors to many objects around the house.

Nice spoon of quality twine.

There are precious few holders for kitchen string that have cutters and this will do the job just fine. I do wish it was a little prettier and that the string was covered to keep it clean, but at least the holder has the cutter and there is plenty of string. The cutter is sharp so I don't need a lot of force to cut the string which is a good thing, because I use it mainly for a rather unconventional purpose. Each day when I've finished reading the WSJ, I roll each section folded in half into a narrow cylinder and tie it with string so it stays rolled up. These paper 'sticks' go in the fireplace to help light the wood fire to begin with or get the flame going again if it dies down too much. They burn really well--longer than you'd expect. The string I was using was in a clear plastic container with a cutter. The container had melted a bit from having gotten too close to the heat at some point so was sort of misshapen, plus the cutter wasn't sharp and I had to really jerk on the string to cut it. As the string got to running out, I started my search for a replacement and was surprised to discover most kitchen string holders, not only don't have cutters, they are metal so you can't see how much string is left and could run out unexpectedly. There was one cute rooster holder with a cutter but it was huge--almost a foot high, which is way too big for my counter, more like the sort of thing you'd have in a store to tie up parcels, although I don't guess they do that anymore. I may paint this holder since it's just bare wood (although has a nice smooth finish) to give it a bit of flair. Even without flair, it's very functional and that is my top priority. I can get refills when needed and it suits the purpose. If you want a string holder with a cutter, this is about the best you'll find.

Just the right strength and size. The built in cutter is so convenient.

This is a kitchen essential. The twine is the perfect diameter and is very strong. No problems in the oven or smoker. I would buy again but a my age this will probably outlast me.

This is adorable and extremely useful. I am of the mind that anything that I have in my home that is pretty Pretty really has to earn it spot and this has earned a spot. It's decorative and very utilitarian, and it was a modest investment.
