Hello: You both are very adventurous. Maybe at some point we will get a smoker. Regards,

I didn't start grilling on my own until sometime in the nineties At the time we had one of those little Weber or Weber knock-offs. It had a gas igniter which was easy to use until it died. It was hooked to a gas cartridge which had no way of telling you when it was out of gas. When the fire stopped, I had to screw on another one and start or resume cooking. I would simply put the meat on the grill using my hands, not touching the grill of course. Sometimes I transferred the meat from a plate with a metal spatula. Then I timed the cooking with a talking timer or my watch using the same time I used for broiling When it came time to flip the meat, I got my spatula out again and put it to work. All marinating and seasoning took place ahead of time. Now, I use a smoker/grill. I like the flavor much better and grilling times are similar. But it is a more complicated piece of equipment but I find it easy to use now. I just had to learn where to put the wood pellets and how to use the thing. My husband is totally blind too and he uses it as well. He has become the smoker cleaner which involves cleaning out the fire box with a shop vac. But it is worth all the trouble and then some. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
