Weber recalls 3 million metal wire bristle brushes as bristles can break off in food, cause serious injuries

NEW YORK — Grilling season is around the corner and Weber is recalling over three million metal wire bristle brushes.

The recall comes as the brush bristles can break off and get into food. If swallowed, they can cause serious injuries.

The company says it’s aware of at least 38 reports of bristles detaching and in a few of those cases, people needed medical attention.

The brushes were sold at Lowe’s, Home Depot and Target along with Amazon, and Weber.com.
