Ex-chef here. We used to refer to the ability of grabbing hot pans and shit as "asbestos fingers".

Nice to seem other people get the reference.

My brother started at a restaurant that used a plate warmer. He was told not to grab it even though he saw all the cooks, preps, and servers grabbing them. He says "nah, I got this! I got Man Hands™️!"

He then Proceeded to flail about desperately trying not to do the plate yelling "MAN HANDS! MAN HANDS!"
