I may not need to build a yakitori grill after all.
We did some banking a couple of weeks ago. The details are irrelevant, the point is, we got a free gift. The gift was a round cooler. And inside that round cooler, a smaller round grill. A tiny grill. An adorably tiny grill. Adoragrill.
It's cheap. Thin aluminum tub, wobbly legs, and two grates - one for coals, and one for food. But it might just be ideal for yakitori, for two main reasons - first, the grill is nice and wide open, and second, you can pack the coals in between the two grates and get them right up on the meat. I haven't tried it yet, because for the most part, this has not been experimental grilling weather, but I'd like to soon.
Because fuck knows this thing's not going to be suitable for much else. I'll be lucky if the lump charcoal doesn't melt through the side of the thing.
