M16 Bacon Cooker
Is there anything more American than this?
Cooking bacon on a Gemtech TREK 5.56mm suppressor heated by firing 90ish rounds of wolf 223 on a registered pre-86 M16 lower (complete with tax stamp, etc. for the “fine folks” working at the BATFE).
Dustin Ellermann is competitive shooter best known for winning the third season of History Channel’s “Top Shot.”
Native to Texas, he was born a champion, and now he just broke the internet.
Dustin has found a way to eat on-the-go… by wrapping slices of bacon around the suppressor of his M16 rifle.
Ellermann fires his weapon until the bacon begins to sizzle from the rifle.
He unwraps the tinfoil and breakfast is served!
In the words of Ellerman, “So much America right now.”
Steam Engine Train Smoker
This video, by Janet Califf, is of an amazing handcrafted steam engine train smoker built by “Illinois Slim”. “Illinois Slim” has been working on the project for three years and built it mostly from scratch. The smoker has a wood-stoked fire that generates steam, along with a working whistle, a bell and much more!
The engineer reveals that he named the train smoker “97″ after the country song “Wreck Of The Old 97” famously sung by Johnny Cash.
For three years, retired iron worker Steve has been working on a homemade steam BBQ smoker that looks like a steam train engine. The miniature train has a boiler and firebox to make the most delicious and tender BBQ chicken. But the best part is releasing steam from the cylinders, ringing the bell, and blowing the steam whistle. All aboard the train to delicious-ville.
How To Of The Day: How To Make The Bitty-Q
In this video The King of Random illustrates how to make a tiny barbeque just big enough to grill a jumbo hot dog, slider or brat.
Enjoy!
Got an itch to grill, but don’t have a BBQ handy? Here’s an awesome little hack, to satisfy your meaty cravings one bratwurst at a time!
WARNING: Cutting aluminum cans will give the metal very sharp edges. Sharp edges cut skin. You may want to use gloves to mitigate any risk. Hot coals also pose a number of risks. Never use around flammable materials or on tabletops sensitive to heat. This project should not be attempted without adult supervision and adequate training. Use of this video content is at your own risk.
I was amazed at how well this really works! I lit 2 coal briquettes in a separate metal container, and let them burn until the outsides turned white, then I transferred them to the Bitty-Q, but a couple of bratwurst on the grill, and came back 10 minutes later to find them perfectly grilled, and mouthwatering.
Inspired by: A picture I saw from the team at Mike’s Hard Lemonade. It portrayed someone using a drink can as a miniature BBQ. The picture was faked, but I tried it in real life and this is what happened.
