Cooking steak on a Smokey Joe. 7th floor outside stairway of a 10 story off campus dorm.
Sirens, fire engines...
Saw them coming and realized they might be coming due to the smoke.
Closed all the vents, carried it up a floor and inside. Briskly walked until we saw someone and doused the coals with some water in their bathtub.
Steak was charred and raw at the same time.
Turns out they were there for a medical emergency, not the smoke from the Joe.
There was no sign prohibiting BBQ.
At least you had hair to singeI needed to sear steaks in the winter in the rain So I needed a hot fire. Oops too hot! The sous vide rib eyes seared in seconds, had to pull them off flaming and I singed the front of my hair!![]()
