What is it about the smell of charcoal lighting?

It's unmistakable. The instant you smell those first few coals ignite, you start anticipating what the food is going to taste like. Waiting with anticipation for the rest of the briquettes to light and then set to a nice charred white color, indicating they're ready to accept meat. Ribs, chicken, hotdogs, hamburger patties, steaks & grilled onions and garlic, all makes the mouth water with the remembrance of barbecues past and how great they all tasted.

Hopefully, if you are reading this on this July 4th in America, you are also lighting up your grill and cooking out with friends and family celebrating the Declaration of Independence.

Sorry England,



Not yours.
