mguerra Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Penny is coming home so I had to add something. Can of beans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 OK here's the actual story of tonight's cook. I just wanted to play with those Walden firestarters again; and I saw the hotdogs in the refrigerator and just said oh what the hell I'll cook some hotdogs. My wife goes nuts when I just cook meat because that's all I do is cook the meat, usually. If she doesn't cook the sides, there probably won't be any. That's not always true. I do cook sides. But anyhow I'm looking around the kitchen after I cook the hotdogs thinking oh boy am I going to get my ass chewed and I saw the ranch-style beans in the cupboard and broke those out. So that's it, I just wanted to play with my firestarters and it evolved from that. Plus anytime I am out on the back deck cooking I have to have an adult beverage in my hand so why not a nice glass of Bordeaux? It's not actually paired with the food, it's just something to drink while cooking! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 ROFL, it all sounds like a blast especially when you said you opened a can of beans. :) Loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I don't pair anything with food. Usually by the time dinner is finished cooking I've had a few and couldn't care less. Mrs skreef usually does the sides but in her half (one hand) crippled state I've been doing it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyfish Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 @mguerra maybe this will help. I tell my wife this about veggies. "The cow eats the veggies and I eat the cow". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Actually received my shipment of Walden starters this afternoon. Was planning a steak cook for dinner anyhoo, so I fired one up under a 1/2 chimney of Royal Oak. Within a few minutes I had an flaming tornado going. Dumped onto a half basket of RO and was off to the races. Much faster than newspaper. Didn't need the FiAir to stoke things along. These things are magic, folks! A big shout out to Doc for the tip!
