Title: Noooooooo!!!
Post by: HoosierKettle on May 06, 2017, 01:23:24 PM
I took a couple grills to a friends earlier today and will be helping grill. He sent me this picture all excited. I'm not there yet.

Lighter fluid in my grills. Oh well. Guess I have to take one for the team.

 Look at that! Big flames but no smoke.  ;D  Hopefully he did not pour lighter fluid directly into your kettles.

Pretty cool pics though. My first grill I use to see how high I could get the flames.

It all worked out. It was a birthday party for his father in law. He made a bunch of chicken legs that were great.  Despite his use of lighter fluid, he is a seasoned kettle chef. I made a bunch of abt's and several teriyaki pork skewers.  There were several other non grill appetizers as well. We cooked for over 60 people. It was a lot of fun.

I only took one picture of the last few skewers. That's me on the right.

I'm sure it smelled fantastic (I like the smell of lighter fluid on charcoal) however it has to burn longer for the taste to not be there. Hopefully it wasn't. Food looks good too.

A couple pounds of bacon in each grill will make you forget all about that lighter fluid linger.

Dude @HoosierKettle, way to bury the lead!? Why didn't you tell us your buddy Matt Hasselbeck is the serial user of the lighter fluid to light the coals offender?!

Gift idea... Weber chimney starter for your friend!

Before I knew any better I used to use lighter fluid as well...

Cool pic though..

Chimney might be a bit subtle. I've seen people use matchlight in them.
