Below, you can learn more and complete our 60-second evaluation to see if your case qualifies.

Metal Wire Bristle Grill Brushes

Almost every household that owns a grill cleans its grill with a bristle grill brush. They are essential for routine maintenance. Grill brushes are used to remove charred food, grease, and carbon buildup from the grill grate before or after cooking. 

While there are many brands to choose from, some of the most popular ones, Weber and Nexgrill, sell millions of grill brushes regularly, with a lot of them being metal wire bristle grill brushes. 

What most people don’t know is that metal wire bristle brushes, including ones from popular brands, such as Weber and Nexgrill, may experience a product malfunction, which can cause their small metal wire bristles to detach from the brushes and stick to the grill or food, posing an ingestion hazard and risk of serious internal injuries that could require surgery and potentially life-altering injuries, such as intestinal perforations.

Some people have required surgery to remove bristles from the body. 

One reported case includes a man with a bristle still lodged in his pancreas, and another involved a child who underwent two throat surgeries for removal.

As a result, lawsuits are currently being filed to help compensate victims and their families for their suffering.

Anyone who was hospitalized or experienced an injury from a grill brush bristle may soon be eligible to receive significant compensation.

Millions of Weber and Nexgrill Metal Wire Bristle Grill Brushes Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury

In February and March of 2026, several models of grill brushes sold under brands Weber and Nexgrill were recalled following safety concerns reported to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. 

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commision, over 13.4 million grill brushes were recalled in February and March 2026 alone, due to a potential product malfunction where small metal bristles can break off during cleaning and stick to the grill. 

In some cases, those bristles have ended up in food and were accidentally swallowed, leading to serious injuries.

According to recent reports, some people have required hospitalization to have metal bristles removed from the throat or digestive system.

These types of injuries can be life-changing, leading to throat punctures, abdominal pain, or, in rare cases, life-threatening perforations of the intestines.

The recalled grill brushes were sold online and in stores at Lowe’s, Home Depot, Ace Hardware, Target, Amazon, and Weber.com from 2011 through 2026.

According to reports, manufacturers of recalled Weber and Nexgrill Bristle Brushed failed to warn consumers that the metal bristles could potentially detach from the brushes, stick to the grill grates, and stick to the grill or food, posing a possible ingestion hazard and risk of serious internal injuries that could require surgery.

Anyone who was hospitalized or experienced an injury from a recalled grill brush may be eligible to receive significant compensation.

Although we know that even compensation can’t erase a life-altering event or heal the pain, it can help reduce financial stress and help prevent similar accidents from happening to others.
