Mrs Hoot, being a frugal woman, is always clipping coupons and such. She just brought in a coupon to me for something called a FlameDisk, made by Bic. This coupon is for a free FlameDisk. A brief look at Google informs me that this device uses ethanol for fuel, is self contained (no ashes or such to deal with), burns for about 40 minutes. It is compact and as such is easier to store than charcoal. Price...about 5 bucks.
Now I doubt I will ever be convinced that this contraption will be better than charcoal, but if it lives up to the hype, it might be a product I would keep on hand for emergencies and unexpected guests for lunch or supper.
I reckon I will give it a try seein's how I can get one for free.
Anybody have any experience with this thing?
