I tried to BBQ once and only once. I don't like BBQ food to begin with but
I was gifted with a used BBQ. My friends liked steak and back when I was 19
I didn't know that there was another way to cook it. That's the only way I
ever had it at home. My friends finally got the BBQ to light but only after
I sent flaming newspaper all over my neighbor's yard. Heh.
