the conspiracy of inanimate things continues

I just want to go on record as saying the following: I strongly suspect that our family's barbecue grill is a sentient being, and that it hates me with a flaming orange passion and wishes me ill with every particle of its essence. The chicken never catches on fire when anyone else is cooking it.

Just be glad that is all that catches fire.
The last time I used our grill I burned my hair and some of my eyebrows ......

So, I don't touch it anymore, and the grill rusts peacefully on the patio. Alone.

You have to wait until the coals are white and not on fire anymore AT ALL to start cooking. Also if you use any kind of glaze it tends to drip and start a fire. If you spray the grill with like Pam or olive oil spray, it will prevent it from sticking. (I've found that when it sticks and drips that tends to start a flame). Also, you can keep like a spray bottle near by to sprits the coals if it starts to flame up.

Barbeques are misogynist.
