karlag I definitely buy second-hand things, as well as sell some of my things that I no longer need. It is a good way to reduce clutter and to keep things that are useful out of landfills. One man's trash is another man's treasure.

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 9 Mar 09

karlag I use gas. You can get grilling chips that will flavor the food. There are hickory chips that give the food a nice flavor. You can get chips marinated in sherry, or you can sprinkle the hot lava rocks with lemon or orange peels for a citrusy flavor. I prefer...
