| I don't feel awesome very often. But yesterday, I was awesome.
Our grill is a gas grill. Years and wear conspired to corrode the burner underneath the lava rocks. I don't know when it decayed from "hmmmm that's weird" into "The grill has issues" leading up to "I need to fix that" and finally "I don't want to grill anymore." My grilling surface consists of one white hot nexus of flame the size of quarter and 4 soft candle warmers at various locations. The other 85% echoes only the cold greasy blackness of space. Grilling is an interesting dance of rotating (not flipping) the cooking meats around the nexus while warming the non-active food on the candles. This is a whipping and produces less than spectacular grill food.
But yesterday I changed this part in my grill:
When I turned on the gas and lit the fireball (I love the fireball) there before me was a trained, self-controlled even flame. I felt so inspired: caveman inspired. I MADE FIRE!
Then I cooked meat on it. I'm awesome.
______________ ..."no, it's supposed to that."
