Well, there is the indoors. But... that is indoors. A bit of a
problem? Sort of. It's messy, to cook steak especially,
indoors. The propane tanks don't work well. It has been warm
enough this year, mostly. But, still, it can get sticky, then stuck,
then... that is it... for that tank.
What I had been thinking was a charcoal, cowboy as I prefer that muchly,
chimney. The regular charcoal grill, during the winter, has too much
separation between the coals and meat. And takes a very long time to
heat up. However, that chimney, used to start the coals in the
summer? Would do.
My problem is I didn't want one with plastic on any parts. Okay, if
starting those coals, and dumping them quickly. But I've had them melt,
if left too long. And... too long isn't all that long. Like with
women, I think it's a mood thing. Go ask one. Or a chimney.
:p I found one. And found out the size at the top. Then
found a grill for it.
So... when those arrive, I can attempt to begin trying this method.
Further? I have it that these work great even in the summer. There
are things that can create an even hotter flame, but those have problems of
their own. This seems to work better? Compared to many
options. Let me see if I can find the vid... Ah, here.
Adam roughly reminds me of an old friend. A physicist, at once. Though... one I respect a bit more than typical.
Anyway, so... yes. Waiting for that. I have plenty of charcoal around. Hmm, may have to make sure I have steaks cut or thawed, or whatever is needed, for when that arrives. Will see. Even if it doesn't work as advertised, it will be good to have a chimney that doesn't have plastic on it. Can always, perhaps, add a lifted coal tray, or find a smaller grate to fit closer to the charcoals, if this doesn't quite pan out.
So tired. I want to go to bed. May have to. If I really wanted to push into the day a bit longer. To try to start spinning over to days again. I would have thought the coffee would have helped. But... no. Ah well. Good night, most likely. And good morning.
Finally got my youngest son to do a shift at work (open invite.) He has my sleep schedule, all over, except awake days. 0100 he was looking rough, caught his second wind about 0300. He went right to bed, I'm reading and having peppered chicken chunks and green beans.
ReplyDeleteOldest son is a coffee "appreciator" whole bean, french press etc. This one, no coffee but he does slam Monster energy drinks...(He's 22, how much energy does he need) But good on him he made it all morning with no caffeine.
Son said he'd either sleep for 5 or 12 hrs, I'm hoping 5, will be closer to a "normal schedule".
Temping your son into your shoes? Not a bad job. Very good, maestro! Seriously. I hope your monster drinker finds his way to coffee, or even tea? If you want to know a sweetener system that doesn't wreck the body, let me know. If he needs that. Add in whole cream, and I'm serious. Better than Starbucks or any of those poison pot cafes.
ReplyDeleteThe one who does french press, and whole bean, follows my heart. I wish I could just do folgers and a brewer, but my last woman tainted me against... plastic, and added doubts to many things, including folgers (and other main canned brands). On the flip side, she was an excellent lay, when I could get her to lift a leg. Sheesh. Cow!
*grins* I'm... a badd boi. :p

Sometimes I'm tempted to not copy before I publish. Thankfully I keep doing it. Would have lost all that this time. They are just trying to kill off this space.
That son is getting an Aeronautical Engineering degree soon. I hope He's aiming higher than I got. He did exhibit an attention to detail (most of our new hires dont), and asked the "right questions meaning he'd worked some of it out before asking.
ReplyDeleteProud I am.
Steak is cold again...Bye again.
Excellent. Isn't afraid to work, ask, dig in. And has a brain. Already in the right direction. Now, if we can just make sure the big companies will even hire whites. And, let them do what they do, not saddlebag their genuine efforts with dei underbelly, "oversight", and mismanagement. But... that's a different thing.
ReplyDeleteSons can only be better if there was some quality to the parents to start. It's a rough game, but I think your on your way to that which you desire.
Be well, my friend.
Oh, and you don't have to keep telling me how good it can be to have children. I... I am working on it. Got a pile of things to dig out of, including my grave. And many miles to fly in order to seek a woman. But... the... ball is rolling. Devil you say? Maybe, but not the one you know. *grins*
