I guess that is why they have BBQ cooking shows. Lots of people know
how to cook the old standards on a grill, so it's nice to get new ideas.
I start BBQing as soon as the weather turns nice, and cook outside almost
every night until it starts getting too cold and dark, and I appreciate
having new things to try.

And what's the matter with deep fried ice cream? It's delicious.
