True!

Lucky, had it closed up except the lid was off a bit. Just a small bit of smoke that you could smell in the laundry/entry. Good lesson at a good price.

Honestly, I'm glad you and the family are ok. Even in this area where it's rarely very cold, we have 2 or 3 house fires from either the grill/smoker right up next to the house or inside the garage... It happens much more than anyone would like to admit.

NEVER tend the fire barefoot. Hot embers/coals somehow make their way to places they are not supposed to be.:scared::Cry:

My only rule is no cooking barefoot when using wood or coals. I learned that lesson the hard way when I stepped on a small piece of lit charcoal that fell out of the chimney when I was getting a fire going. Deep second degree burns and it took months to fully heal. Terribly painful, and made it extremely difficult to walk. I wouldn't wish that upon anyone.

While the huge fire ball looks cool from a distance, it will scare the crap out of you when you are standing inches from the grill.

Just another thing in life I had to learn the hard way.
Would have loved to have seen the look on your face for that one.

Don't fall asleep/pass-out at the 7.5 hour mark of an 8 hour cook.

I've learned to always take my time with it. If I try to rush, I make mistakes, or forget something. Now, I only smoke when I have nowhere else to be, and nothing else that's gotta get done. I just try to have fun with it. :grin:

I did look around afterwards to see if anyone was watching.

Letting my wife around the smoker. She's a peeker.
