When your using skewers do you prefer to use wooden ones or the metal ones? I use wooden ones, but I have to soak them in water so they don’t burn on the grill. I am thinking about investing in a nice metal pair and would like some opinions.

I had metal one and didn't care for them I went back to the wooden disposable ones

I like the bamboo ones. The soaking isn't that big a deal if you start soaking the skewers before you do anything else.

bamboo ones. I agree with spiceplace, the soaking isn't too much trouble. And often, you really don't need to soak them all that far in advance. Sometimes i've done fine just putting them in to soak before I start taking ingredients out (prepwork)...maybe 10-15 minutes.

I like the wooden or bamboo ones, as long as I remember to start them soaking a sufficient amount of time before I need to grill. Unfortunately, I often don't remember. :o
