Notes About The Poem

Barbecue

* ** Coals Turn white That give off Heat for cooking, Now season the steak And then place on the grill, Then when it starts to sizzle Start turning so it doesn't burn, Cook throughly to your perfection Then enjoy with salad, fries and cold beer.

Thank you Emilia, we've only had one so far, I always overcook slightly, don't want to poison anyone. Doesn't look like we'll be having another anytime soon as the weather's turned. Enjoy your weekend. Tom

Repeat if necessary. I miss using coal for the BBQ. Nat Gas is good but not the same. Have a great day my friend.
Cunningham Avatar
June 13, 2021 at 2:36 PM
Thank you David, I know gas is quicker and cleaner to use but that bbq taste isn't quite the same as coals. Tom
