Cooking in a Rental. Is This Much Fire Ok??

[Jason TQ]

Out of town in FL for my Wife's brother's wedding which was yesterday. Had a really fun time. Today was just relaxing and before the newlyweds go on their honeymoon tomorrow they came over tonight to the townhome we rented. Weren't expecting them to be around, but when they said they would come over I ran out to Publix to get some food. Didn't have plans for anything specific, so grabbed a few steaks and some shrimp.

Cut the ribeyes in half which was perfect for all of us. Not a very robust kitchen in terms of tools to cook with, but enough to get the job done. Also had roasted broccoli, some bread and bob evans mac!

Here's the hilarious part...............as I was heating up the pans on the stove to sear the steaks before putting them in the oven I got them relatively hot not being used to how hot the stove settings go. Then in the one pan I put some oil in not thinking it was too hot and this is the hilariousness that ensued :shocked:

Only about a tablespoon of oil to immediately burst into flames :thumb:. A few of the others freaked out, but I just put it into the sink and you can see me to the left of the fire prepping the rest of dinner as it burns out :mrgreen:. Sister in law caught this awesome picture :becky:. Watch out for those hot pans! Seen way worse in the kitchen I used to work in. The black smoke cloud is so funny. Smoke alarms were blaring.

As long as you have insurance, you're fine - just burn it all down :wink:

[smoke ninja]

Didn't think you were into cooking with fire :wink:

[Fwismoker]

Didn't think you were into cooking with fire :wink: ...and I'd think that fire was in the 1200-1600 degree range, perfect temps for some fried chicken or maybe chicken fried steak. :heh:

From the paranoia dept: you want that photo and story on a public forum? Easy way to get blamed and held liable for damages.

Yes that is the paranoia dept. There were no damages :becky:.

Ya I was taking my time as 1600 is my new low range..........1600 hot is pretty last week :icon_blush:

Looks Awesome! You should have thrown some cinnamon on it! :) Dinner looked perfect!

You're lucky that wasn't California. All rentals have automatic sprinklers. Would have triggered a deluge.

Ya no sprinklers in this one. Wife was about to pull off the fire extinguisher that was next to me off the wall :becky:.

When they said they wanted fireballs I think they meant in shot glasses :shock:
