Haha, I started a grease fire on my stove making dinner tonight. It's awesome.

What's your worst cooking catastrophe?

My ex has...twice.

Once, it ruined the kitchen in my mom's apartment. 2nd time, just ruined a pan.

My worst one was heating up a frying pan in preparation for a stir fry. The phone rang, I answered it and forgot about the pan. It was on the stove on high for like 15-20 minutes. When I got back, the frying pan was convex in the center.

4-Years service at BK =

5 Fryer fires
Multiple (More than I can count) Fires in the meat Broiler
Swirling fires up the exhaust tunnel... This one was cool.

BK remained open during all fires.
