I'm a total meat eater and once in a while i will be interested in it enough to cook for myself. Charcoal BBQ is really labor intensive but in the end it's worth the trouble because the flavor is really very good. I also grilled some chicken without any spice in it just for Kelly, she LOVED it. Now I've had my fill of holiday fun, with a latte in hand I'm ready to practice, I work Friday, Saturday and Sunday:)
