There is lots of driftwood on the south-east shores of Lake Huron.
I picked up these pieces when we visited
@Hank from Franks a few weeks back. Cut them into chunks.
Loaded up a chimney.
As expected, there was a fair bit of smoke initially, but once it died down and I saw flames, then I dumped it.
I went with the 18" weathered warrior that
@MrHoss rescued for me awhile back.
There was still plenty of flames.
I waited for them to die-down some before grilling.
Wanted a nice bed of glowing embers …. Then on went the steaks.
NOTE: This time, I never put the lid on while grilling.
After removing the steaks for a rest, there was still plenty of heat remaining …
The steak was delicious! Rare to medium rare ….
No charcoal was harmed in the cooking of this meat.
