It looks like he forgot to put it in the griddle ....and placed it directly on the heat shield/drain pan....?
While I wouldn't put that past him, Tee, that's just the leftover shrapnel that fell through the grates as it all disintegrated into bacon dust! He'd put the grates down for the dogs to have them help cover for his sins... but they didn't want ANY part of that mess! (Which is saying a LOT, considering some of the things we've caught them eating around the barnyard....)
I told him to just leave the stuff on the grease pan for the night, I needed some time to mourn. I'm planning on making my first snack sticks in casings this weekend, but he has to clean that mess up before he gets any.
Apropos punishment to fit a gruesome crime, yes?
Looks like he broke the new Mak in good!!! Don
I think he overdid it on the "broke" part!!
