Take a breath!
After finishing the backyard remodeling/landscaping, we designated a little area for a small fire pit. But, true to my nature, couldn’t settle for the wood fired pits available. We entertain semi-frequently between the kids’ parties and work functions. Had been eyeing the Arteflame as a centerpiece for the backyard during the whole renovation process.
Clearly not the most efficient way of cooking. But I think there’s an entertainment factor for get togethers that will hopefully make it worthwhile. At least that’s what I tried to sell to the missus. Surprisingly, after the initial shock of the price for the unit, she gave me the green light. Even more surprisingly, she told me to get the big one because she liked the European stand better than the one for the medium sized one. After 15 years of marriage, she’ll still throw me a bone every once in a while.
Had to enlist a couple buddies to help get it set up. Burn in and seasoning currently underway. Once it’s done, I’ll throw some leftover skewers from last night on as a test. Will update as the process continues.
