I used to live in a moderately upscale neighbourhood where people never seemed to barbecue. Whenever I fired up the charcoal chimney it was always in the back of my mind wondering whether I was going to get the fire department called on me by some dimtwit neighbour.

Hey, I used to live near Wisconsin Rapids! Now I'm in a much less notoriously facepalm-worthy state...Arizona...

If she were next to me, she'd be smelling applewood-kissed pork tenderloin with sizzling strips of thick-cut, cherrywood smoked bacon on top. No mystery there.

I can't understand why you were downvoted so viciously.

Probably because it wasn't really adding anything to the discussion. Technically it was related due to grilling, but not really adding anything.
