Heat of the moment=Total brain meltdown

Geez, Adam, don’t you ever learn?

wouldn’t be as much fun for us if he did.

New grill this summer, new TV next winter for the ‘bowl.

As long as he’s willing to do all the work himself along with the clean up, I’d simply get out of the way and let him do it.

If his passion is grilling, let him open his own BBQ place. Call it “Adam’s Ribs”.

Who pays for all the meat?

She’s going to get out of his way and let him do all of it, including cleanup, whether he’s willing or not!

Adam’s Ribs? Isn’t that a place in Chicago? Near the rairoad station?

M.A.S.H rules!!

ProudBluenoser, Ah yes!!

And as for Adam, I’d kill him! He’d be walking the Green MIle!

better if adam tries to grill the turkey, than try to deep fry one a lot of house fires have been caused by people deep frying their turkey

I’ve grilled turkeys lots of times - you just use indirect heat on the sides and cook it low and slow. Delicious smoky flavor!

I understand the overall joke but seems to me like there’s a whole panel or two missing.

vawser: Yes, barbecued turkey (and smoke chips added). Life doesn’t get much better than that - well, maybe add a cold beer while you’re cooking. For BBQ, I’ve found that smaller turkeys are better, cook more evenly. If you have more people, two small ones are preferable to one large one and can be cooked at the same time if your grill is large enough (mine is). Try it sometime, Susan.

Or get a turkey smoker, tender and delicious!

A place where barbecuing is illegal? OMG, H*ell on earth! Well, I barbecued a New York strip in your honor last night, Susan, and it was great. You’re welcome, no need to get all gushy.

(No, I understand - out here on the Left Coast, we have “Spare the Air Days” laws in some areas - things aren’t as congested as in NYC, of course.)
