It was brought to my attention that I "suck at grilling". And even though I hate to admit it, I would have to agree. This being said I would like to state that the one who came up with this conclusion was none other than the human torch himself. My husband, numero uno, the big cheese, the man of the house, king of the remote, the MAN. For years I have picked on him for his skills with the grill. After all not once has he walked away from the grill without losing some sort of hair, whether it be eyebrows, armhair, or even hair from his head. The smell of burning hair has been a constant at this house pretty much every grilling season, I have grown used to it maybe even comforted by it. That is until yesterday evening when I decided to cook some hamburgers on the grill myself, the hubs was late coming home from work, I figured it would be alot less mess and the 11 yr. old informed me he was starving to death(this I quickly informed him would take a good week at least not just the hour it had been since he consumed a twinkie and a 24 oz glass of milk). Well anyways I have finially find out why it is my husband smells like burnt hair all summer long. Our gas grill is a piece of SH**. No ifs, ands or butts about it. Grade A, choice, #1 piece of SH**. If it had not been to heavy to pick up, I would have thrown it, instead of given it a good swift kick with a fuzzy slippered foot. There is not one thing working properly on it, in order to lite it I had to use a match which then proceded to cause a ball of fire which not only managed to finially lite the grill but the hair on my arm as well. Then to realize there is only two settings on it (burnt or chared) so when I left the grill to go get the rest of the food ready 10 mins later I came back to burgers the size of an oreo cookie and just as dark. We had to soak our burgers just to eat then and the hubs said he thinks he chipped a tooth. The 11 yr. old said "if thrown I think this could probably kill someone Mom". And this morning I noticed the hubs brought what was left of those damn burgers to work with him today just so him and his buddys could get a good laugh I'm sure of it at my exspence. I guess I deserve it after all the years of laughing at my hubby over the grilling. Say it is devine retribution, say its fate, say its kismet, say whatever you like. I say there will be no grillin done by this woman again. I suck at grilling and I'm not ashamed to say it... The hubby said "don't touch my grill again, its set up just the way I like it", .........Well ya know what hun, you can have the damn thing.......
