I need some expert advice please. I'm going to grill steaks for my girls this evening, I just don't know what I'm doing. I have the Weber kettle grill, charcoal, hickory wood chips, lighter fluid, and rib eye steaks.

Now what?

Take the top grill off the grill and set aside. Put in charcoal and make somewhat of a mound in the middle of the grill. Spray with lighter fluid. Light with match. Let fire settle down. Put top grill back on grill. Let coals turn to a white color(means hot). Put on the steaks. Flip occasionally. If you have a vent on the top you'll want that half way open so you don't keep the temp too high. Cook to your liking and depending on the thickness of the steak. Cut with knife in the middle of the biggest steak to check how pink it is. If you like it moo'ing take it off early, if you like it well done, cook it a little longer.

DEFINITION OF A BBQ

It's the only type of cooking a real man will do. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

1) The woman goes to the shops.

2) The woman makes the salad, vegetables and dessert.

3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces and takes it to the man, who is lounging beside the grill, beer in hand.

4) The man places the meat on the grill.

5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.

6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning.

He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer whilst he deals with the situation.

7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman.

8) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table.

9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.

10) Everyone praises the man and thanks him for his cooking efforts.

11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off"

And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women!

Make sure the coals are white before you put the steaks on. If not, they will taste like a cup of lighter fluid

Thank you all so much for this very sage and manly advice. I've started the fire complete with hickory wood chips and things seem to be progessing well.

Charlie, I would call a neighbor man but I don't have one. A man is, as you know, on my shopping list.

Steak sounds so good right now. MMMmmmMMMmmm...good. I think I will barbecue this weekend. A lot of what Tim was saying WILL happen, except for the women part. The beer and meat was right on, though.

I know you didn't go there Charlie. :angry:

If Hector and I get to invade Charlotte this summer, I'm gonna take over your grill and make you "eat your words".:laugh:

(and may I add that the only thing to "high-tech" for women to do is working the romote control...and THAT would be because most of us have never had to pleasure to hold it long enough to teach ourselves how.)

I stand by it. And don't even get me started on the remote. Next thing I know you'll be wanting to drive my damn boat.

Nahh, the only role I like to play on a boat is fisherman....but you really should consider letting Hector be your captain, I'll let you ask him why privately.:cool:

Bhardy, what does his list have to do with grilling or the never ending battle of the sexes? I'm confused. I liked the remote on the site, I'm going to forward it to my mother.

I have to say that I actually like the fondness a man holds for the remote. It's manly. Hector wouldn't be Hector if he did have it in his hand or on his chest when we get couch time. Hey, I still get a choice in what channel gets view-age, so it's all good!

I am not complete without a remote control. Don't let her fool you, I pick the channels. (sports, wrestling, porn)
