pretty baked really. heard about long-haul drivers putting their fish/meat in tin foil on the engine block and knowing exactly when to pull over for lunch. |
|
| |
welcome to the halfbakery BTW. |

Yum Yum, diesel flavored rainbow trout. Could I get that with a side of 5W-30 fries? |

Welcome to the Bakery-- Binary said you're a friend of his.
How would the engine heat the trunk?
Thanks. |

There's even a cookbook for car grilling. It's called "Cooking on your engine, and it 'auto' be delicious." I didn't come up with that pun.. |
|
| |
I wonder how much the model of the car changes the taste of the meal? |
|

"Hey that's a pretty good ToyotaBurger!" |
|
| |
"ToyotaBurger? We only cook on American manifolds in this house! |
|
| |
There are many cookbooks on this subject. My favorite title is "Manifold Destiny". |
|

When I was a kid we stopped for lunch on the side of a bush (outback, for the USians) road. |
|
| |
After 10 minutes or so our dog chased a goanna under the car. It climbed up into the engine compartment. A few minutes later there was a delicious aroma of cooking fish. |
|
| |
Dad opened the bonnet (hood) and there was a slowly cooking goanna, perched on the exhaust manifold. No point in letting it go to waste. Think chicken, crossed with fish. |
|
| |
Be still my churning stomach |
|
| |
Today, [UB] tuaght me what a goanna is, what they taste like, and the true meaning of Christmas. Thank you, UnaBubba! |

You can buy all sorts of "In Cab" domestic appliances for trucks that run off 24V in a service area on the A25 Autoroute just north of Calais. I was amazed. Not just kettles; filter coffee makers, refrigerators, grills, ovens, the whole ball of wax. |
|
| |
On steam railway engines, it is Standard Operational Procedure to tap off boiling water to make tea or coffee, and you can also cook bacon and eggs on a speciay cleaned fireman' shovel. |
|
| |
So, fried, if not actually baked. The "flipper" would be a neat attachmanet to any conventional domestic oven ... |
|
| |
Saw a documentary on the History Channel the other night that showed a car-cooker made for cars as early as the 1930s. It was a hot plate with a high domed lid. It didn't attach to the engine, but to the exhaust pipe, whose gases were circulated through the hot plate (but not into the cooking chamber) to warm it. |
|
| |
Didn't we already do something like this with the in-car pizza oven thingy? I don't mind the trip down memory lane, tho. |

Welcome to the hb. Nice to see someone who uses decent grammar and spelling. (The Pedant Police are watching.) |
