How cool is this? ( Q related )

[Derek]

I was talking to my folks about grilling tomorrow, I didn't have anything out tonight but the MOINK ball ingreidents and it's too hot for me right now to grill them.

Anyways my soon to be 3 year old little nephew, hugged my leg and looked up at me and said I want to go to the smoker, and I had to tell him not tonight, since it's too hot.

And he cried, Hes normally my little helper out there. I tell him to stay 10 feet away and hold the lid while I clean it out...


Least this way he can feel like hes helping.

I'm teaching him early, I don't show him starting the fire or anything like that!

Too cool, :-D

 

[Derek]

So hopefully when hes 10 years old, I will be teaching him everything I've learned.

when hes 5 if hes responsible by then I'll start teaching him cuts of meat and so on..

I love it when it's too hot out, cheaper on the fuel that way.
Good lookin nephew you got there man.
Your glasses remind me of the agent off of Heroes.. dammit I forget his name.

It's amazing how eager to help and learn they are at that such a young age. Keep teaching him Derek. He appreciates it more than you know and can amaze you even at that age with what they can do. But you are right, safety first...always. Great picture too!!
