Ha! Dumb@$$ guy who lives in my neighborhood and his cooking mistake

[ecowper]

I know this guy in my neighborhood that has an SnS Kettle that he loves for weeknight cooking when it’s just him and his wife. One night he needed some advice after having put a tri-tip on and it hadn’t hit 100 IT after 45 minutes on the kettle. I pointed out to him that he had the bottom vents fully closed and his charcoal had gone out. Man, what a dumb ass

[ecowper]

Panhead John can you imagine if any of us screwed up like that? We’d never live it down

[Panhead John]

I know Eric! It’s hell being perfect ain’t it?

[ecowper]

John, it’s a burden I have to live with

[Panhead John]

I know this one moron neighbor of mine, who one time lit the wood in his cheap ass offset smoker with a big ol’ Duraflame fireplace log! He didn’t have any charcoal, so he decided to use that instead. He didn’t even realize what he did until halfway through the cook! What a dumbass!

[mrteddyprincess]

Duraflame = BBQ flavs. I read that on the internet. :-)

[ecowper]

Man, I hope you schooled that dumbass

[ecowper]

at least he didn't use lighter fluid

[Finster]

…
😂…

[mrteddyprincess]

What an ultra-maroon. What a nin-cow-poop! :-)

[Panhead John]

Damn…tough crowd here! 😂

[tenphases]

If that "dumbass" want to sell his pit for pennies on the dollar let me know!!

[ecowper]

I’ll buy it for 1 more penny

[Huskee]

I'll bet this guy talks about himself in the third person too, the worst.

[mrichie1229]

Like Elmo.

[ecowper]

mrichie1229 you have something against Elmo?

[JoeSousa]

I have done that before. Or I have used the leaf blower when the coals aren't quite hot enough to get me a good sear.

[ecowper]

I ..... I mean my dumbass neighbor .... didn't think about the leafblower ....that's brilliant.

[HotSun]

Reminds me of this guy in my neighborhood, using an air-bed inflator stuck in a vent of his Kamander in an attempt to resurrect embers that he tried so hard to suffocate. Never happens here in the Pit.

[TripleB]

You should buy him one of these for Christmas. Works great for coaxing back a fire or igniting logs in a smoker. He'll love you for it.

[mrteddyprincess]

Does it come in a left-handed model? :-) I like my leaf blower because it's left-handed.

[TripleB]

mrteddyprincess - Yes, it does. Just turn it upside down

[Angryfish]

I’m surprised that that dummy remembered to unwrap the chicken!

[Purc]

We had our local upscale grocery store, on Signal Mountain, TN fry a turkey for Thanksgiving one year when both sons were off to college. They came home for a homemade meal. Our store's dumbass deli department forgot to remove the plastic bag inside the turkey that held the neck, gizzards, liver etc., before they fried it. We did not eat the turkey with the fried plastic bag inside. A lousy Thanksgiving dinner.

[Draznnl]

When my ex and I were dating, she once made us dinner including some frozen twice baked potatoes, but didn’t take them out of their plastic bags before putting them in the oven. I should have known then…

[Angryfish]

Indeed!

[fracmeister]

Personally I would have taken the food off while I was blowing on those coals but you need to get flavor from wherever you can I guess.

[hoovarmin]

My neighbor does goofy stuff like that all the time!
