    Still photo or an MPEG MOVIE of lighting of the grill with 3 gallons of liquid oxygen. Started with 60 lbs of charcoal, and burnt up 40 lbs of it in 3 seconds. Result is a grill ready to cook in about 3 seconds, and all the old grease, etc burned off. Don't try this at home.
    WARNING: an ignition source, such as a lit cigarette or one glowing coal, must be present before pouring on the LOX. If charcoal is PRESOAKED in LOX first, an explosion will result. One briquette presoaked in LOX is approx equiv to 1 stick of dynamite.

    How do you get the lox to the barbecue grill?

    If you use less lox, can you use less charcoal? The 60 pound bags are hard to tote.

    I'm guessing it won't work with one of those little aluminum tabletop grills?

    Taking notes...

    You take it off the bagel and walk it over to the grill, don't you?

    I don't know about this. I like smoked salmon, but not blackened smoked salmon! [​IMG]

    Here's the site -- with a video clip. Cool.

    Note that in the articles, the fire department was not very happy.

    Sounds like a contestant for the Darwin Awards.
