Extinguigh charcoal BBQ

[Try Me]

My g/f bought a charcoal BBQ - not a propane one.
Once that sucker get's going - there's no stopping it
Twice now i fill a big speghetti pot full of water and bomb it. But i'm thinking that can't be normal.
How are you supposed to stop them without letting them burn out or water bombing them?

Well, once the coals are grey and you are done cooking and everything. Use just plain water. Pour it over the coals and stir them up with a stick.

That should take care of them. Sounds to me like you aren't waiting long enough, although a giant spaghetti pot has got to be pretty decent for putting it out, hehehe.

Just pour the water over the coals, don't dump it.

Ahhhhh, yes, nothing comes close to the taste of Steaks done on a charcoal grill. No propane gas, or other can replicate the flavor. Damn I'm hungry now.

My dad just lets them burn out, but if you don't want to do that wait until them coals are grey and ash like then pour water over them and mix it around

Just let it burn out. On some models you can close all the vents and it will go out by itself (no oxygen). You can then relight it the next time you're ready to grill again.

ahh, firin' up the grill and havin' a burned-e-q eh? sounds good. i usually just let them burn themselves out. if you really wanna have some fun, get an anvil (or some other big, immobile peice of metal, like a camaro!), a hammer, and some iron rods. stick the rods in the fire, let 'em get red hot and then pretend to be a blacksmith. you can do some pretty cool stuff.

or you can put stuff in the fire, like rags soaked in gasoline, or explosives. hehe.

a while ago i read about some scientist that were doing experiments on how to make the best burger. one of their trials was with a grill fueled by liquid oxygen. it burned for less than a second, and the grill was completely obliterated. sounds fun! btw, that one failed because it turned the burger into a smoking peice of carbon.

Eh, charcoal neads VERY little oxygen to burn, and will simply smolder for a LONG time. Here comes Dinomites Very Intelligent Good Idea:

Take the grill, and cut a 3in hole in the lid, when you are done grilling, close the vents. Get some of that drainage hose (the black stuff on houses) get 3 lengths of it and a Y pipe put the two ends on the stang, and the third in the hole in the grill lid. Start car, and rev engine, this will suffocate the fire in short order. It will work best when the car is just started, as the cats haven't started working yet.

Now where talking about modifying Grills Adding Y-pipes and O2 sensors.

Quite partial to my gas grill, thank you very much.

Try this one some time.

Chicken breasts marinated in 1 bottle of beer, 1 cup of vineger and a quarter cup Soy Sauce.
A pinch of salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder are each optional.

Dust lightly with Lawry's Seasoned Salt before popping on grill.

Use both Mesquite and hickory wood chips
(I guess you're supposed to soak those in water. Didn't know that before )
