Me being the Master chef along with my Sous chef @VANCE, will be doing our annual Saturday night chili dinner. This year we're asking for donations of $2.00 a person to cover the cost. It will also help us determine how much ingredients we need to buy. Please reply "I'm in" and nothing else or I ban you from the chili.

Funds are also needed for Luca917 Luca917 so he can buy real charcoal this year, not the stuff found in a gas fireplace that doesn't burn.

 
Bmurray Bmurray I've got garden habaneros I’ll gladly dehydrate for crushed pepper if you are interested. Just let me know and I’ll get on it. Should be easy enough to mail.
 
In and will bring charcoal and charcoal chimney and newspaper to start it. Probably need some sort of steel plate or baking sheet to avoid charcoal falling through bottom of grill, as I'm sure the holes are even bigger this year.

That's a lot of pressure right there.

I you want something done right.........and we'll need more charcoal for that dutch oven dessert(s) made form crack........

On the plate to make the grill bottom solid, I don't want to burn down track rock with lit charcoal that rolls down the hill, but maybe it's just me.
 
I'm in. Plus 3.

And nothing else.

Ban me if you must, but...
I can't believe you have a photo of that charcoal fiasco. And that was after a certain Robert I know dumped almost a gallon of lighter fluid on it. Looked like a freaking Napalm strike.

I redeemed myself last Trackrock but you weren't there! But we all know this is a tough crowd.

I'm bringing extra charcoal.

I figured out a solution for that last time. I bring a little aluminum foil sheet from the grocery store that fits that grill perfectly and prevents anything from falling through. That is as long as the crew doesn't decide to turn a forge out of that grill with enough lighter fluid to set the entire forest on fire.
 
I'm in for sure.

You know what they say...if you want to make an omelette, you have to build a viking funeral fire...or something like that.

Promises cannot be made.

Yes, would be nice if all the food didn't taste like lighter fluid.

I looked it up and turns out that "nice" is not a synonym for "necessary". :cool:

Yeah, but remember we all ate the Brats marinated in lighter fluid last fall. No ones appetite was exactly ruined, hence the nice request. As in, the crowd wasn't that picky or complaining about the lighter fluid taste at the time, but I'd prefer without. Figured I was the only one that preferred without, didn't want to overstep and speak for everyone, just northern hospitality that's all.

VIKING FUNERAL!

I nominate the both of us to launch the flaming arrows. We are expert marksman with the bow!

We are known for both our amazing abilities at lighting a stubborn grill...and for our unorthodox abilities at archery. Combining the two can only lead to crowds of people being wonderfully entertained and awed.

We'll have to come up with a more palatable substitute for the lighter fluid...but it would have to also be able to ignite easily via flaming arrow. Luca917 Luca917 and I will have to do some research.
