Nope, not exciting at all! My brother and I were planning a camping trip for early last month. It was the first camping trip we had done together in more that 12 years. He purchased a nice prime tri-tip but the forest closed to all but propane cooking devises. So not wanting to pan fry or D.O. the meat I went looking for the cheapest gas grill I could find. Found this one in stock at Target for $30. I figured what the heck, it't the same price as the meat. And if it only last this one time it worth it.

Speaking of tri-tip and gas grills. Funny story, I had a young guy that we work with offer to cook tri-tip for our crew last night. When he arrived at my house (he does not have a grill) he asked if I had any seasoning for beef? What are the side dishes? when will it be ready? Before he got there I got a large chimney of lump going for the Weber. When I showed him the grill he asked "ok, so how does this thing work? I only cook on a flat top" I said "heat meet protein, protein meet heat" In the end he did a pretty good job. I just kept reminding myself he's a 19 year old city kid living away from home for the first time in the mountains. And I think it would be fun to keep cooking with him.

Thanks for looking.
 
Looks like a great time with some delicious food in beautiful surroundings!

Sounds like you may have a novice to take under your wing :wink:
 
Looks good all around! I am dying to get back in the mountains...but am probably sidelined for a while. Thank you for sharing, beautiful area you camped at.

Love living the the mountains. It's 1.25hrs to the grocery store which ran be a bummer if all you need is a gallon of milk. But I wouldn't trade it.

That poor water bottle never had a chance.:shock:
Yup, it didn't put up much of a fight.

Good times.

Good food.

Good mentor!
Thanks. It's always fun to share the craft with someone.

I'm hoping to drag him down the rabbit hole.
