My grill is a causality of the ice

I love my outside grill. Greenie's lovely wife once said, "A grill is a grill". But we know that's not quite true I take very good care of it and even had a custom cover made for it. We just heard a big bang and I would say that at least a 500 pound ice chunk fell off the roof and landed on the grill

I am almost in tears... I was going to cook a prime rib on it tonight

I loved my old charcoal blue weber grill. It finally bit the dust one day. The salty air from the ocean rusted one of the legs to the point it just gave out. Got a new one, but I do miss the old one...

LOL I went to Big Lots and got one of those $20.00 throw aways. Figured if it lasted a summer I would get my money's worth. It's three years old. I get around the grill and I'm like Tim Allen with a power tool.

How do you know that the ice weighed in at 500 pounds?

Personally I think grills are just like microwaves but a lot more hassle. A frozen dinner heated on a grill tastes just like the one heated in the microwave.

I thought guys grilled because they didn't like to clean up their mess after cooking.

Thats a sad...sad thing. I know I would be completely lost if anything happened to my grill. Having to go through a whole break in process and all. Thankfully, I don't have ice and snow problems.

It is a big ass Vermont American with all the sweet, sweet features you would ever want. The built in smoker, infared rotisserie. And I could take it to 600 degrees in 15 minutes.

All gone now...

And Cleo, assuming that ice is heavy, the chunk was about 3 feet by 6 feet and about 2 feet thick. How much do you think it weighed?

The grill has a scale

I used to cook outside all year round until I wised up & let The Bitch talk me into getting a big ass Weber range-top with a built in grill

Now this is the only time European metric measures are better that old style feet/pounds/pints. Because if you know the size of the ice in metres, it is supposedly easy to convert it into volume in litres or weight in kilogrammes.

But don't ask me to do it, I still work in imperial measures (British pound/feet/pints)

Yeah but aren't you a vegetarian? Vegetarian food probably does taste the same if nuked from frozen. We are talking about proper food, you know, dead things.

I know...I looked to find a formula for the weight of ice. I know a gallon of ice weighs 8.8 pounds. But, how big is a gallon of ice?

Would that be an American gallon or a British gallon?

If you lived in here Florida you could just wait a short time for the ice to melt and then drink the water and go weigh yourself.

Sorry Jim, you just lost my sympathy. In a desperate attempt to find something to do rather than get back to work, I just looked up your grill on Google and found it was a gas grill, not a proper one.

If you claim on your insurance, then replace it with a proper charcoal or (even better) wood burning one, then the ice did you a favour.

But if you replace it with another gas burning thing then I am going to have to have you arrested for crimes against flavour.

Remember - something died so that you could cook it on your grill, the least you can do is cook it properly.

Yeah, but doesn't melt water from acid rain give you acid indigestion?

Back when I lived in the Latin section of Miami each holidays, seemed like each week there was a new holiday, my Cuban friends would dig a flame pit in their backyard and throw a half a pig or something dead in it, cover it with banana leaves, get really drunk, and spend the next few days eating its flesh. No grill, needed, just a shovel and something to burn.
