I recently discovered the joys of silicone hot pads. The stove literally cannot get hot enough to melt silicone (2577°F), no reason they shouldn’t last forever. They’re also nice and grippy! $2 at the hardware store.
Plus! To clean grease or spills off them (silicone hot MITTS, that is) you just put them on and wash your hands with dish soap! And you can immediately use them, even if still damp, without steam scorching your hands!
But note: they will not protect you from bougainvillea thorns, you need gardening gloves for that.
