BG, I think I went too far. I am in a frisky mood. So, you don't have to strip, if you don't want to. Oops, that did not come out right either. Simon, please deactivate me, for I have sinned. No, don't delete me Simon, jut put me on probation, and give me a special needs talk.

Gas ain't got no soul man...

Charcoal rules.

Do it slow. It not just the eating, it's the cooking. People who use gas just don't get it. It's an art, and a love, the whole ambience of the event...the smell and the sounds, the social intercourse during the turning of the meat.

It's an event for all the senses, don't be an animal and just gobble the food without tasting it!

Like sex, it should be savoured holistically; can you smell the food, charcoal; hear the flames, feel their heat? See the food turning brown in the interplay of flames and smoke? Sense the primordial nature of the whole experience?

erm...think I've had too much wine...

larc

dmouse, you had enough wine to write pure poetry. I agree with everything you wrote. The beauty of charcoal is beyond compare.

*In a Marion Cunningham voice she asks*

"Larc! Are you feeling frisky???"

As a matter of fact,Larc, I am at this very moment I'm grilling New York strip on the Q (with charcoal of course).

However, I am only capable of a "California" strip, myself. In particular, a SOUTHERN California strip (those northerners are just sooooo snooty, think they are better than us southerners, they do. JUST because THEY have San Francisco and the wine country and WE have Hollywood and Disneyland). Southern style is very "trashy", however, but I suppose it is fitting since I am half "Garbage", right?

Like with Dave (seven006) on another thread, I had to consult with hubby to grant such a request. He has no opposition, just as long as he can take pictures .

I made you look, you dirty crook

I came to look, a fight to see
To hose the flames that bother me
Instead I see some funny stuff
Larc again just posting fluff

Larc:

I fell into your little trap
so now Im turning on the tap
and for your trick i think i oughta
fill your breeches up with water

I agree dmouse, but when the family is hungry you have to love the gas grill. We have both. My husband has the monster charcoal grill/smoker and I have the gas grill. I cooked steak on Friday and salmon on Saturday.

My husband is the "King of the Barbecue", and he prefers to cook over wood, but usually we use charcoal. No gas grill here. We have two though, one is a Kamado (not Kamodo), a ginger jar-shaped barbecue from Japan. It smokes things just heavenly.

He also has a "monster" barbecue that he is very proficient with. He likes to cook slowly........salmon, steaks, ribs, brisket, roasts, chicken, and whole chickens are incredible, cooked on a frame that goes into the cavity, so it is cooking upright, instead of on the side. We heard they are good cooked like that over an opened can of beer, but haven't tried it yet.
