Barbecue bamboo skewers generally have one pointed end and one rounded end. However, they are all made of bamboo, and most barbecue bamboo skewers are used to make crafts. The bamboo used to make barbecue skewers is usually tall, fast-growing grass-like plants with woody stems. They are distributed in tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate regions, concentrated in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the islands of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, with many varieties. How are the barbecue bamboo skewers we usually use processed?
 
       
Today, Longmen County Yuhua Bamboo Products Industry Co., Ltd. will talk about the raw materials for making barbecue bamboo skewers. Bamboo that is more than three years old is cut down and sawed into pieces, usually from the middle part of the bamboo, cut into lengths of 1.6 or 1.9 meters. Then, a splitting machine is used to split the bamboo into pieces, and a machine is used to remove the nodes, removing the green skin and the yellow inside. They are then layered, with the top layer having a bit of green and the bottom layer having a bit of yellow, which are priced differently. They are then pulled into bamboo strips in a drawing machine, and after being drawn, they undergo anti-boring treatment, are air-dried, and then sawed to the required length for skewers. Finally, they are polished in a polishing machine, and after polishing, they are sharpened in a sharpening machine, and once sharpened, they are packaged as finished products.
