Default Who's cooking out tomorrow?

I want to, but it's 102 degrees outside. Standing near a 400 degree BBQ grill just doesn't sound appealing. Don't let me stop you, though. Whatcha cooking?

Have a fun Fourth!

Just do something that can slow cook and won't require you standing over the grill all day like a brisket or something. I may do a tri-tip. Put on grill, close grill, flip once, close grill, remove from grill.

My understanding is that it's illegal to use the grills at parks due to a burn ban in the state.

That's a thought. Maybe a chicken with a can of beer up its ass. Make some German tater salad. What else?

No shit? We're tinder dry, dry here, but have heard of few fire bans, no fireworks bans where it's otherwise legal.

I hate to say it, but WORK is cooking tomorrow. Just could not be avoided. With all this heat, the plant is running WFO making power.

Well sheit...... thankya for keeping the lights on and the air frosty

About the same here; in the food business, we can't be fukin' off if a customer is looking for their truck.
We're doing our blow out fireworks/grill out bonanza this weekend instead.

How hot is the grill you're standing next to when it's 72 outside?

I think I'm doing some brats, boil 'em in beer and then throw 'em on the grill. Kraut and Onions.

Another option we often use when it's too hot is to use a crock pot or electric roaster and just put it on the workbench out in the garage.

We're cooking all day but not really cooking out.

I'm cooking ribs, and Karen is prepping side dishes and breakfast casseroles, to take with us to a cabin we rented for Thursday through Sunday.

Many towns won't be doing a fireworks display. We went about a month without rain.

My Richard Head next door neighbor was setting off some fireworks earlier. Ground around here is like a tinderbox. I was going to go out and let off a 12 gauge salute into the air in his direction but decided it was not worth the BS if he called the cops
