Labor Day Eats

by chris cunningham

Fire, carbon, flesh, and ambiance. A lowkey end to a non-laborious Labor Day. Even though I usually cook for one, I like breaking out the big ‘ol Weber grill just to have the flames shoot up about 6 feet when you light the coals. Ladies and gentleman and neighbors… I have made fire! I am Alpha Male. Hear me roar. All the neighbors peered out their windows in fright as I frantically poked the coals to a reasonable level. Then I leaned over the pit and shot close-up photographs which really frightened them. I think they were keeping an eye on me for my own safety. The teriyaki chicken? Awesome. The italian sausage? Juicilicious. The watermelon? Lovely.
