STORY TIME! ~The Grill Incident~So yesterday my father decided to grill [Burgandy Pepper Marinated] Flank Stake.
He lite the Webster coal grill and what not, waiting it to become the right temperature and then put the stakes on.
Unfortunately at that time it had also started raining and so I was the designated "Umbrella Holder-Upper".
So, my father and i went to check out the grill (that had the stakes on it already) and my dad observed that the coals seemed to have gone out.
So of course, he went to get some liter fluid and matches to restart it.
When he returned, I questioned his actions:
"Hey, is this really a good idea?" I asked.
"Well...maybe..." He replied (later he told me he didn't exactly understand what I was asking, and thought I was talking about the flank stake, not the fact that he was about to put liter fluid directly onto the seemingly "dead" coals)
Well, although I had my doubts, my father put some fluid on the coals and for a few seconds they seemed ok, until...
BOOOOOSSSHHH!HUGE BLAST OF FIRE ERUPTED FROM THE GRILL.We were laughing (we didn't feel a thing) then my father looked over at me and started laughing hystarically.
I was confused
Apparently, some of my hair had been singed. (Quite singed actually - including the tips of my eyelashes).
I as laughing hystarically now. A little bit of my dad's hair was too, but only a little bit (hardly noticable - including his eyebrows.)
It was hilarious - and the stakes were pretty good too!
Well, that's my story. I hope someone got a laugh out of it (my sisters certainly did)
