please let the grill master do his/her thing.

I was the grill master yesterday and everyone was all up in the mix and it was annoying me. I hate when people come and put stuff on the grill and make suggestions and stuff. I'm trying to make room for more patties and before I can step 2 feet away from the grill, people are putting their buns on the grill. Then the grease from the burger drips down and ignites a huge flame under the bun which chars it beyond recognition. So now a bun is thrown in the trash while homeless people are digging in dumpsters for food. But instead of realizing that he'll just have to eat his burger w/o the luxury of a toasted bun, he reaches in the bag and puts another bun in the exact same spot.

Other annoyances..

"Let's put the corn on now.. we should put the corn on.."

Shut your pie-hole, by the time the corn is done, the coals won't be hot enough to cook the chicken and you'll catch a salmonella infection. Then you're gonna bitch about how my cooking made you sick.

Also, statements like:
"Hey, can you make one for me?"
"Hey, save that one for me."
"Hey, I called that one, make sure nobody else takes it."
are all things I don't care to hear. I don't have the patience to designate pieces of meat nor do I have the skill to distinguish which one belongs to who. I make them and I put them on the platter when they're done. What you do from there is up to you and out of my hands. You want your piece well-done? Go to Black Angus.

OK, end of rant.. Aside from that.. enjoy your labor day, have fun, don't get too smashed and remember to pour a little for all the hardworking people both here and abroad who bust/have busted their asses to make a decent living. Or did you forget what we were celebrating? =)

People who invade my grill space get a spatula in the throat! A man has to do what a man has to do! Others will notice and learn the lesson.

I usually employ one sous chef to help with larger partys, usually my youngest daughter. She has taken an interest in learning to cook. She's working on baking techniques currently. Her scratch baking skills are coming along nicely.

Most of the time though, proper planning and timing of events keeps things running smoothly. I'm also lucky in that family members know, that I know what I'm doing. They offer to help and will take my directions as to what needs to be done. They also don't frack with my work space.

The kitchen is the 2nd manliest room in a house after the garage. It has fire and sharp knives, and tools. Own it!

In caveman days we would have used your drunken butt as bait to lure a big predator in to kill for meat. If you had gotten killed and eaten in the process,...well,...scissors, rock, paper for your stuff.

A tribe only needs one chief. Which one you voting for?

I'm going with the oldest one of those two. Gotta throw respect to the elders.

I believe in cave man days it was actually, rock, rock, rock. It wasn't near as decisive as today.

Hand to hand, or bladed weapons, first blood or to the death?

True, since your stuff probably comprised a couple of rocks, or maybe a stick.

A couple rocks and a stick? Am I detecting a little sexual reference from you. Shame, shame shame.
