Thats what I thought and that comment kinda sounds like the inspector isn't buying it. Who knows hope Eminem doesn't get crapped on here and that he was upfront with them. That baking tray and pizza pan must have been glowing cherry red.

I was thinking electrical myself. Those pans weren't glowing at all.

Glad to hear that you made it out okay, along with most of your stuff.

Sorry, but I'm out of anything witty to say.

Locally, we had a fire chief lose his house to a very strange fire a couple of years ago. He put out his last cigarette for the night and emptied the ashtray into a metal coffee can. A windy night blew the can over. His still half-lit cigarette had ignited some of the other butts and when the wind knocked the can over, some got caught between his wooden upper deck boards. They ignited the deck and eventually, the flame burned through the hose on the grill's propane tank. The resultant blow torch then caught the wood siding on fire and quickly spread to the end of the house. It took a little time, but eventually, the flames and smoke made it to the interior, which set off the smoke alarms.

I have been thinking about Inmen58's fire. I have melted aluminum (melts at 1221 F) cans in many a camp fire. I have no question that even through two metal cookie sheets, a chimney full of coals could bring the surface of the wood up to 500 F which is hot enough for it to ignite. The pan in contact with the wood is pretty flat and would make good contact with the wood; it is also an excellent conductor of heat. I'm sure every one who has watched a campfire has seen a piece of wood not in the flames get very hot until it burst in to flames without ever coming in contact with flames from the main fire. Same thing could happen here.

The part I am struggling with is the supposed gap it time between when the coals were removed and the fire started. It would seem that 2 hour is enough time for the heat to dissipate. I'm wondering if the wood actually started burning when the coals were in the chimney, but the flat bottom pan prevented much oxygen from reaching it. The oxygen starved fire just kind of turned the wood under the pan to charcoal, generating enough heat to keep the fire going at a low level. It finally burnt to the point to open an oxygen pathway at which point it burnt into flames? Just hypothesis forming at this junction. Really interesting.

Also, if the pan were in contact with a nail you could easily generate much hotter temperatures in the wood around the nail. Could start a very small oxygen starved fire around the nail that may take along time to burst into flames. Again, just a hypothesis.

If you see any hazards besides the chef please share. Got a good 6ft clearance from the fence and water hose on standby

Goodbye wood gate. Dumbass.

ROFL dick

I think the wood on the coals might burn.

What could possibly go wrong?





Oh wait

You're golden. :thumb:

LMAO

Classic. Pork butts revenge.

Looks good. Minion method in full effect.

Yes sir, good call. Only way to do it man.
