At the PLS (Pennsylvania Live Steamers) our "ash pits" double as easy places to light alcohol burners. Set a mirror at a 45 degree angle so you can see the fire in the burners easily. Saves frying plastic ties too.
Anyone in the Phila. area is welcome to our Turkey Trot Special Gauge-1 Run day next Friday the 29th. Bring warm jackets!
