Grilling Alton Brown

Many moons ago Alton Brown did a whole feature with NPR about cooking outdoors. With our national day for cookouts and grilling and maybe a little Q, it might be fun to revisit this from 2002.

I'm a big grill fanatic, you'd think my favorite Food Network personality would be Bobby Flay from my level of grilling devotion, but no its AB. And this quote here explains exactly why Alton is my favorite:

"The brain is the most important tool in cooking."

I'd love to see AB do more shows with grilling, though. Come on AB, there's always room for more grilling episodes. :)

Anyway, back to the NPR thing. If memory serves, this was around the time I'm Just Here for the Food was released. There's a brief video of AB smoking in a metal trashcan... no I haven't done that!
