I just grilled some sausages and for maybe the first time ever I didn't burn them...
I've also been known to set off fire alarms while hard boiling eggs.
And yes I know I can set an alarm on my phone but by the time I've left the kitchen I've completely forgotten đł
What do you always burn? Has anyone set fire to anything?
And no it's not a thread about your pee burning..
Please see a Dr for that one. |

Got complacent on a building site years ago and set my pants on fire.
Got them off in time before any serious damage was done to my leg.
This in no way implies that I'm a liar by the way. |

    "I burned some toast in a friend's house in the States years ago while he was at work and set off the fire alarm. Ten minutes later I'm sitting at the table eating burned toast and minding my own business when the front door crashes in. The local fire brigade proceeded to charge in with their hoses at the ready.

I had that happen in Nutses accommodation in a hospital when i set the alarms off. We all had to stand outside until they checked it was safe. I should have done it more often  |

 Not something I burned but I was locking up a warehouse one night and could hear water dripping and discovered a leak in the roof.
Had to spend about 40 minutes on a forklift moving everything out of the way and putting buckets down to catch the water.
When I was almost finished I could smell something burning and spent another half an hour wandering the aisles thinking it was an electrical issue caused by another leak.
Turns out the issue was at reception where the woman who worked there had been fixing her hair before going on a night out and had left straighteners plugged in and they had melted the laminate top on the reception counter.
If I hadn't had to deal with the leak there was a good chance the warehouse might not have been there the next morning.

 "Whenever I cook a steak . I put skillet on cooker for couple of minutes to heat up then drop steak in and bang....off goes the alarm. So now I just remove batteries."
If youâre trying to make a top quality steak at home with a nice crust on it, and the fire alarm doesnât go off, youâre doing it wrong đ |

 I set the BBQ on fire once. Flames coming out the back, out under the controls, under the lid, everywhere.
I'd turned the gas onto max and didn't realise that 50% on was enough.
Left some burn marks on the wall of the house.
The eventual steak was delicious

It was the bill that hit me the hardest. Luckily his insurance eventually agreed to cover it but with a warning not to do it again. No more toast for me that week  |

I'm normally quite good with setting a timer and usually give it another minute or so to be sure especially with chicken
I'm the same with sausages though! they never look as if they're done and then they end up being over cooked |

  Tried to cook potato pies in Wikedties house today because she had never tasted them. But as usual we got side tracked and were reminded when the smoke alarm went mental. Hopefully her neighbours didn't see me running naked out the back door with the tray. |

 "For some reason popcorn in the microwarvĂ© doesn't like me. đ"
Try stopping the microwarvĂ© (or Popty Ping if you are Welsh) mid cycle and shaking the bag around a bit to re-distribute the kernels instead of allowing them to sit for a full cycle đż |

 "I always mess up fry ups. Bake no problem but chances are ill burn your sausage(s)"
1. Invest in a Ninja duel air fryer
2. Place sausages in basket 1, 6 minutes at 200°, turn and then a further 6 minutes
3. At same time place some bacon and pudding in the second basket for same settings, turning halfway through.
4. On 2nd cycle, crack egg into a pan with some butter, cover with lid..
5. Put on the kettle and toast when egg is covered..
6. Whack beans in the microwave for 1 min, stir, another minute..
7. Assemble on a plate and enjoy đłđ„đ |

Bake beans in a microwave is a war crime. The difference between microwave versus saucepan is monumental. They also need an obscene amount of Tabasco, though thatâs personal preference |
