Grill deaded, RIP good friend
May 5, 2014, 10:57 AM
|

After 15 yrs. It was one of the precious few things I still own that outdates my wife. All wives for whatever reason are on a clandestine mission to rid their hubby of all he owned pre-them.
Anywho, anyjuan got any good gas grill suggestions? Not sure if I get the $900 one or the $300 one. Need ample cooking surface and a side burner. Don't care about much else.
Here's a few replies to save ya'll some time:
CHARCOAL OR GTFO!
YETI AND A GREEN EGG YOU BROKE SUMBEETCH!
SMOKER EVEN IF YOU DON'T KNOW HER!

The two things to look for in a gas grill
May 5, 2014, 11:02 AM
|
|
The WEIGHT of the grate, and the covers over the burners/drip system. Everything else is for show. The main thing that differentiates the expensive ones from the cheap ones, are what I mentioned above.

Pretty sure he's special forces now. We killed 6-8 rabbits one day and were camping. ####### forgot a knife. Navy seal was mad because he REALLY wanted to eat those rabbits. So he cleaned the rabbit with his teeth, gutted it with his hands, put it on a stick, roasted it on the fire for a good 30-45 seconds, and commenced eating.
PS. While rabbit hunting my old 1987 Toyota 4-Runner got stuck in a mud hole. He picked up the entire back end and pushed us out.
I pity the fool in Afghanistan who may have tried to fight him.
