Necessity is the Mother of Invention

My grill has a small propane tank for starting the charcoal. Tonight we ran out of propane.  I then found out there was no starter fluid. Since I was bound and determined to cook the chicken on the grill tonight, I grabbed this coffee can that, up until tonight, had held a small collection of screws, nuts, and bolts, and turned it into a chimney for getting the coals going.  It's a method I remember my Dad using when I was young.  Good old Dad knowledge! I even texted the pic to my parents with credit to Dad. ;-)

We ate a little later than I had planned but we did have grilled chicken!!
