But more to the point, do you want to eat it?
Back when gtg's became popular, food prep rivaled saw prep as far as time was concerned. I remember doing pot's of Chili, ribs on the smoker, brats on the fire. As that has waned, and Walt and I are rarely joined by anyone else, we've made things simple, (lazy), and just make some hot dogs. Bag of chips, couple sodas, and a bag of cookies. All we need, with little in the way of prep or clean up. But we may have taken lazy a little to far. You decide.
Little too breezy for an outdoor fire, so we head down to the shop where there is a 2 burner propane camp stove to cook on. Walt pulls out this rusty, dirty cast iron skillet from under the bench. He's scraping it with some tool and I see him spraying it with something and wiping it with a shop rag off the work bench.
What's in that can Walt?
Brake clean.
You're kidding right?
Bob, ya gotta remember who you're dealing with.
I'm well aware, believe me.
The brake clean will kill the bacteria, and the heat will take care of the rest.
It's not the bacteria that I'm worried about.
So...we had lunch and we're both still alive. Funny thing was I had gotten saw gas on my hands. And with every bite I'm smelling the hot dog thinking the worse. But we should be able to do better than that. I'm mean what's next, laying the hot dogs on the saw mufflers? So I came up with a solution. Since his Birthday is coming up next month.....
