Grilled a "beer can" chicken yesterday, just after i loaded up the chix, my fire stalled so I opened up the vent a little and removed the cap. I got distracted for maybe 10min and when I came back the grill was at 700 and pouring out chicken fat smoke. I burped the lid and opened it, chicken was still ok, though the drippings were frying up a storm on the platesetter. As I closed the lid, I got a volcano-like flare up and blistered all four fingers on my left hand and obliterated my gasket.:doh:
On the happy side, the chix turned out awesome once I got the temp down. I used chardonnay and lemon slices instead of beer and covered with Simply Marv All Purpose. Sorry no pics, it was gone too fast and no one wants to see my blistered rib holders. May consider bringing the welding gloves to the bbq table
