Introduction
Love cooking many different types of foods using many different methods. But is there anything so sweet as the flesh of some formerly living animal seared over flame? I think not.
What outdoor cooking gear do you have?

Weber Summit Platinum 4 burner stainless steel with a side burner. It's a little overkill for a single guy living alone in an apartment (and too big for the restrictions of many apartment complexes).

What's most important, the cooking process or the finished product?

Harmony between the two.

Do you prefer gas, electric, or flame?

Charcoal with real wood accents is the way to go for true flavor, but you can't beat the convenience of propane.

Do you know the difference between grilling and BBQing?

Grilling=cooking over fire. BBQ=using fire as the heat source for food flavored with the smoky smell of woods accented with rubs or sauces capturing the flavor of a particular region.

  •  ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! =:0) sometimes its hard to tell "tone" in an email or text, and I wasn't sure if you were honestly mad, jokingly saying "fine, be that way..." or being sincere. I was looking forward to riding today earlier in the week. Unless its pouring outside, I will be there next week. I promise. =:0X

  •  I hope you are being facetious! I'm not dying, just REALLY tired. you would rather see me injured? (sniffle, sniffle?) :0{

  •  I'm sorry, I am soooo tired. Don't be sad! If I perk up by the end of the day, I will go, but I don't want to say I'll be there and then not show. (you know, RSVP) I have your cell, so I will call you later. Fair?
