It's Going to be Barbecue Grillin' and Chopper Flyin' Weather Tonight!
I'm going to get some charcoal and meat and grill me some dinner.

Then afterwards I'll enjoy some cold brews while flying my RC choppers around the yard. I've got 5 batteries charged up for one of them.

I painted and cleaned the grill yesterday so it's ready to go.

You gotta make every day count in these times.

This year I added a nonstick steel griddle on the right side of my grill. It's great for toasting bread and cooking vegetables.

I've got buns left over so I'll probably just pick up some beef patties. I've noticed a lot more plant based stuff in the meat section. No thanks.

I wonder if the neighbors will leave their prison cells?

This year I'm sanding and staining the wooden parts of my grill.

Yep.

I may even paint it a new color.

My grill looks like this one but I use charcoal instead. I took off the knobs and put a piece of glass over that area to lay stuff on.

Never paint the inside of a grill and always use high temperature spray paint. Yep.

They sell some interesting colors on Ebay.

People always throw out their expensive grills in my area because no one likes to hang around outside anymore.

I wheeled my grill across the street from a church that was getting rid of it and I've been upgrading it each year.

Old gas grills make great charcoal grills.

I am grilling chicken legs tonight and a steak tomorrow.
Dang, I was just at the grocery and forgot to get some corn on the cob.

I'm alone for the week so I just use my small charcoal grill.
Just me, the dog and the two cats.

I've picked parts off of other grills being thrown out to make mine better. I've got that nice thick cast iron grill now instead of that cheap stainless steel wiry kind. You have to keep up with rust control though. Oil it a lot.

Last time I tried to get corn on the cob, the store didn't even have any. My Mexican neighbors from years ago told me to just put the corn still in the husk on the grill. No prep needed. You open it up and it's steaming. They added mayo and salt, I prefer butter with salt and pepper.

Hopefully the store will have corn in the husks. If not, they sell these ready to grill vegetable kits. I had one with potatoes and onions that was good. I just ate them off the grill with a fork. I put them on the side with the non-stick griddle. I just had to move a few coals over to the right side. I always cook with the majority of coal on the left side and keep the right side cooler.

No instant light bags for me. Too many bad chemicals. I use charcoal with hickory in it and use a chimney with a wax fire-starter underneath.

I've watched people that cook for a living mess barbecuing up.

I always cook one thing at a time. That way they come out perfect each time.

I'll cook a cheeseburger to perfection and then start to toast the buns right before it comes off the grill.

Then I add my ketchup and eat it standing right there. Spilling ketchup onto the ground like a man.

My two days off were yesterday and the day before. It was cold and windy both days. The rest of the week looks rainy. Today is the only nice day this week and I get off around 4:30.

Plenty of time to make a store run and grill out before the sun goes down.

I grill the corn halfway in the husks, then take the husks off. I finish the corn directly on the grill which will burn off all the corn pubic hairs. I like just a little char on kernels. Then lots of butter and a little sea salt.

Dang it, the nearest grocery is a 35 minute drive one way. And all my frozen corn from last year is gone, it was silver queen as usual.

Your way sounds pretty good. Luckily my store is a short walk. My car is out of commission so I get a lot of exercise these days. I'm actually going to build a trailer for my bike. It's going to be hilarious.

I'll have a little over three hours until the sun goes down tonight. Then I can hang around outside surrounded by my solar lights. I've got 10 of these mason jar types and a few others.

It's dead at the liquor store today. My first customer was also my second customer.

He's an old timer that just walks around and buys mini bottles of booze all day. He's been in twice and spent $13 on 6 small 50 ml bottles.

He needs some hobbies like me. The only thing keeping me going.

I made a small grill out of a large cast iron kettle. I want to drill holes in at some point for airflow. It's mainly for travel but it weighs a ton. Wouldn't want it in my backpack..

I used to use a Weber like that. Upgraded to a big green egg and haven't looked back. It's for serious BBQ.
