    This just might be the best example of guvmint over reach with regulations & penalties galore. If they actually do this, get a lot of popcorn... cause it's gonna be quite a show watching them try to enforce BBQ regs... :rofl: :lol:

    next ting will be a "sin tax" on legumes to offset the added methane release from dinner.

    what it all boils down to is simply this. we have allowed a group of complete MORONS to dictate to us what we can and cannot do.

    im no anarchist, but there comes a time when you just have to say "ARE YOU SERIOUS?

    Oh, this is an easy one. I'll invite a bunch of them over for pulled pork and brisket done on my Egg. They'll be asking me where to buy an Egg, recipes etc.

    I saw that article this past week on facebook and clicked on it waiting to see the "you've been PRANKED" picture......

    Well I didn't, and I was blown away. Honestly, what in the hell.......

    I'm honestly convinced that there are delirious people driving the EPA train......full throttle...and the brakes ain't working.

    .. And yet they that do this are most popular. Your ammunition, your barbecue your electricity(generated by coal), it has no end. the bureaucracy is the unelected 4th branch of government, it's only interest, is itself. but where's the link?

    That won't work, because making charcoal requires the burning of wood.

    Dear husband had a mouthful to say about this BBQ issue, he didn't appreciate that I would not post it....... He feels like you and the rest of us do about the subject.

    My take on the barbecue thing is that it's a grant to fund a study that's part of a student competition. A learning experience.

    Seems like a lot of people are shook up over something that ain't happening.
