Grillin Hot Dogs for Dinner

[SmokeInDaEye]

Yes, we had hot dogs for dinner tonight.

Catch is, I didn't make them.

I recently acquired a little tailgating grill that I decided to give to my five year old to learn on. Tonight was his first lesson on it. I got it heated up and he learned how to open and close the lid safely, how to use the vents, and how to use tongs to turn the hot dogs "when they start sizzling".

Funny thing, I told him next week he could make hamburgers and I'll set a timer that will ring when it's time to flip them. He said he doesn't need the timer...he'll just wait for the meat to sizzle.:wink:

Cool! Didn't stop at one did ya? bet he had a great time.

It's pretty neat that you are teaching him to cook at his age. Any time that we can spend teaching our children how to do what we love is great. Sure looks like he was proud of himself.

That's awesome! Way to go Redhot!

I've been sharing info with my son . . . but all he seems interested in is eating the outcome!

He must have loved this... He's real skilled too...by being able to tend a fire and talk on the phone and not burn any of the dogs.

Let's see those burger pictures next time out.

He was calling his aunt to tell her about the hot dogs. Good times.

Very nice, my two youngest are still trying to decide what they woud like to cook at kids Q this contest year. Think they may do cinimon rolls inside cored out oranges again, great stuff...

 

[Mooner]

Hahahaha, that's so cool. He'll be a farker in no time!

Great pics! I love to see kids getting involved with cooking! My two daughters have been in the kitchen since they could stand up! Not too many better ways to spend time with the kiddos!

He Is Already A Better Cook Than His Daddy

Way cool. He will be grilling steaks by summer at this rate.

If he is going to be a brethren, that apron needs to get a lot dirtier! Good start though.
