FUCKIN HIPPIE
or use firewood
Hippies…
you lost creditability when there is no meat to BBQ…
The electric starter uses electricity most likely generated with coal…
I’d be interested to know if any real research has been done to look into the gas vs. charcoal environmental question. Gas comes from a non-renewable resource. Burning it release carbon into the atmosphere which currently is not being put back where it came from. Burning wood produces carbon that can be put back where it came from by planting new trees. So, what’s the real deal on this question?
I aint usin no ellecticity to roast up my bbq
We Moroccans traditionally use a piece of cloth or paper soaked in sunflower-oil to fuel our barbeques…………..so I was shoked when I discovered that there are people out there who use chemicals to start up their fires!
