Do yourself a big, big favor. Go read about it in some detail. It's
dangerous to the cook and potentially very hazardous to your fire
insurance if you don't approach it carefully. And it's a bigger subject
than this way of finding out offers.

No stuffing. Lots of reasons why. Go read about it. Be very, very careful...
