So today i learned something new.
about a month a ago we got one of those homemade Thai coal Barbeque/ smoker. Be bought the sack of coal and got a bunch of dry kindling wood, split to thin strips, but for the most part I had mastered the smoker part. LOL
wife said "Use Robber bands" so I shot some rubber bands at her , it did feel better but it did not help starting the coals.
so she said "Put the rubber bands under the wood and light them" "stupid faring" and shot the rubberbands back at me.
Perhaps you all knew that, but I did not. rubber bands burn easy, bright , and hot. The kindling was burning hot bright and hot, and the coals were started in no time at all.
You have not had barbeque, until you had barbeque on coals. made some chicken legs, potatoes and chicken livers. The fish are for the cat.
next attempt will be pork chops and sausages.
