GAS GRIDDLE--Outdoor Cast Iron Burner Gas BBQ Grill Plancha Griddle Table Top Gas Grill

[thedirtybeanlife]

If you’re down for it could you write a chubby nb reader x Rudy or Alejandro? (Can be SFW or NSFW I don’t mind pookie)

(ofc! it's a little short, but i hope you enjoy!! <33)

Alejandro x Reader

You stand in the kitchen, preparing ingredients for tonight's dinner. Alejandro had been at work since early this morning, way before the sun had risen. Knowing he would be hungry, you ran out to the store and bought the things to make his favorite meal; carne asada, homemade flour tortillas, and fresh pico de gallo. Quickly working, you take the steak that has been marinating since this morning out of the fridge and place it on the counter.

Walking outside, you open the lid of the grill and throw the meat onto the hot rack, closing the lid again and bringing everything else outside and place it on the counter surrounding the grill from a safe distance, making a makeshift outdoor kitchen. After placing everything down, you start chopping the red onion, cilantro, tomatoes, and a jalapeño to make the fresh pico de gallo. You carefully squeeze in some lime juice from a fresh lime and mix it all together, covering it and sitting it aside.

Just as you go to start preparing to make the homemade tortillas with the dough you had made a little bit ago, you hear footsteps approaching you making you look up with a smile.

"Huele increíble aquí, mi amor," Alejandro says with a smile as he walks over to you and wraps his arms around you, effortlessly picking you up like you weigh nothing making you blush slightly. Even after all these years together, you struggled with accepting his affection when it came to your physical appearance.

"I figured you've had a long day, so I'm making your favorite," you say with a grin as he holds you in his strong arms, your feet still not touching the ground below.

"Carne Asada, huh? You know me so well, mi cielito," he laughs before placing a kiss to your lips and putting you back down, moving to lean against the counter your working on.

You smile happily up at him, leaning up to place a kiss on his cheek before going back to rolling out the flour tortillas and placing them on a tea towel carefully. You then put a cast iron skillet on the burner of the grill, heating it up and oiling it slightly so the dough doesn't stick.

"I was also thinking i could make you and the boys some dulce de leche mousse this weekend for the gathering Rudy has planned," you offer sweetly.

"I think everyone would love that, baby," he smiles and nods as he watches you, "Do you want any help?"

"Absolutely not. This is my treat to you. You work too hard all day to have to come home and make dinner too," you scold playfully, swatting him away with your dish towel as he tries to step in and help.

He laughs as you swat him away and puts his hands up in mock surrender, stepping behind you and wrapping his arms around you, kissing the top of your head and placing his chin on it after. Alejandro runs his large hands under your apron and shirt, his calloused fingers gently grabbing at your plump flesh and caressing it as he runs his fingers along your curves whispering sweet nothings in your ear as you work.

Within thirty minutes, everything is done and Alejandro insisted he at least could set the table. After a few minutes of trying to tell him no, you give up and he happily walks inside to grab plates and silverware for the table. You carry all of the food inside in two trips and place it in respect places on the kitchen table.

"Dios mío, mi amor. esto se ve increíble," Alejandro gapes at the food as he watches you set it down.

You laugh at his reaction and grab two glasses, pouring some wine into each, handing him one and putting yours down on the table. You pile food on his plate before sitting down and doing the same to yours. He digs in immediately, moaning around a mouthful of steak and tortilla, nodding before swallowing and going in for another large bite.

"Calm down, Alejandro!" you laugh, "It's not going anywhere. you're going to choke, Baby." your smile widens as you look at him from across the table.

"Amor, this is simply the best thing you've ever made," he says in astonishment.

"Ale, honey, you say that every time i make it," you laugh softly and take a bite of your food, eating at a slower pace than Alejandro so you don't choke.

"And I mean it every time," he says seriously around mouthful of food, manners fully forgotten as he savors every bite.

Later that evening, after everything's been cleaned and leftovers are put in the fridge, you and Alejandro sit on the couch, watching a random western movie he had put on, neither of you paying any mind to it as you lay in each others arms, talking about your days and what you did. His fingers run through your hair as you cuddle into his chest under the fuzzy blanket draped over both of you. With his other hand, he slowly runs his hand up and down your back under your shirt, his nails grazing comfortingly over your soft skin.

"i love you, Ale," you say softly, placing a kiss to his jawline.

"I love you more, mi amor," Alejandro responds with a grin, placing a kiss to your lips.

The two of you spend the rest of the night cuddled up on the couch, simply basking in the comfort you bring each other, never more content than in this moment.

Here's to the first WIP Wednesday of 2024! And here's some more of American Beasts chapter 51 with good old Uncle Staci and the kids:

Staci led the two children into the mess hall and straight through into the kitchen, lifting them both to sit up on the large metal counter across from the stove where he could keep an eye on them. He had never spent much time with kids, never had much time for them before, but knowing that Kit had taken on the guardian role for them meant he wouldn’t fail her. She trusted him to look after them in her stead. 

“You guys like grilled cheese?”

Carter’s mouth practically started dripping with saliva at the words. Grilled cheese was like sweet ambrosia after weeks worth of peanut butter. “We do, yeah.”

“Good, ‘cause that’s about all I can really make you in this place. If there wasn’t a war going on –” He looked over at the two kids starving, shaking and cold, if anyone knew the effects of the Reaping it was these two. “...well I’d be able to make ya something else.”

Staci went into the fridges and grabbed the butter and cheese, and a loaf of bread from the pantry. Grabbing a cast iron pan, he dropped it on the stove burner and turned up the heat. He eyed the kids from over his shoulder as the pan warmed, buttering both sides of each slice of bread. “How long were you on your own for?”

“Three weeks.”

His eyes widened and then his brow furrowed, his back turned so the children couldn’t see his reaction. “Jesus,” he whispered under his breath. “I don’t think I would have been able to do that at your age.” He likely couldn’t now. “I’m impressed.”

Carter tugged his lips into a tight grin, but it didn’t meet his eyes. “Thanks.”

Placing the slices of bread in the pan, Staci lay cheese down on one side and then covered that with another slice of bread. He could hear the children sniffing the air hungrily as the bread began to toast and the cheese melted. Memories of his own childhood and his mother making grilled cheese for him after a tough day at school came flooding back. Such a simple meal and yet it was a staple of childhood (and of being a bachelor, if he was being honest). 

“Is that why she saved us?”

Staci paused, holding the spatula to the bread, pressing it against the pan. “What do you mean?”

“Because we proved ourselves.”

“I, um, I can’t really speak for Kit.” He scratched at his brow, nervously twitching. “She has her own motivations for doing everything.”

“But that’s part of the cult’s whole thing, right?”

“Part of it…yeah.” Pratt could feel dark eyes boring into his back, expecting a better answer than that. The kid was smart, he didn’t want to lie. Rubbing at the back of his neck with his hand, he flipped the sandwiches on to the other side so they were evenly toasted. “I have a feeling she wanted to save you because she saw people in need,” he said with a shrug. “I know you probably think we’re the enemy, but her and I, we weren’t always on their side either.” Staci glanced over his shoulder once more. “She tries to do things for the right reasons…she’s not completely cold no matter how much she wants people to believe that…no matter how much she tries to make herself believe that.”

“Why would she want to do that?”

He sighed, biting his lip. “Kit’s a bit of a mystery. There’s not a lot I really know about her, she doesn’t really like people knowing her. She prefers to keep us at arm’s length. All I do know for sure is that she was a soldier…and that when she picks you as someone she cares about she would go to the ends of the Earth for you.”

“How does she pick who she cares about?”

“God, I think that might be one of the questions philosopher’s could ponder over forever.” Staci went and grabbed two plates and brought them over to the side of the stove. “I have no idea, kid,” he said with a shake of his head as he slid the sandwiches onto each plate, bringing them over to the counter where the children sat before starting to make more for them – based on experience, he knew one was never enough. 

As the children brought the grilled cheese to their mouths, they seemed to devour them, cramming as much of it into them as quickly as they could. It broke his heart. Already they’d learned to eat the way those in the cages did, not knowing when the next meal would come. A desperate hunger that left a person wondering if it could ever be filled. He had never seen a child in the cages, he hoped it was because they were sent to another bunker…the other prospect twisted him up in knots. 

Watching them feast, strings of cheese falling from their lips and clinging to their chins, a flash of blood pouring from Kit’s mouth as she chewed on a man’s flesh made him freeze and turn back to the pan. 

A mumbled thank you around the food in Carter’s mouth was quickly followed by another question as he swallowed. “Why’d you join the cult?”

His eyes grew wide as he tried to return to the task of cooking. “Uh, well, I mean…I joined at first because it was either that or…well…” Staci’s words trailed off, petering out when all the steam had been kicked out of him by the child’s barrage of questions.

“They were gonna kill you?”

Staci swallowed heavily and then dragged his tongue across his teeth. Not wanting to answer the question. Not with such a young audience. His silence was all the answer the child needed however. 

“So why’d you stay?”

He’d been through his confession with John, had been interrogated by Jacob, and yet this child seemed to ask all the right questions to give him pause. Staci rubbed his hands over his face, scratching at the dark stubble on his cheeks. “Loyalty. To her.”

“You mean Kit?”

“Yeah,” he said with a sigh.

“Why?”

After everything he had been through, Staci was willing to put his faith in the Father, willing to believe his word that the end was coming soon. After everything he had seen and heard Kit do, it was clear to him that she wasn’t just a fluke. There was no way that all of this had just been a coincidence. God had a plan, He had a reason, and unbeknownst to Pratt and everyone else in Hope County – except for Joseph Seed – she was it. A stranger who rode into town like an ill omen of a shifting tide and changing times. Almost otherworldly in how distant she remained as if she wasn’t one of them, above them somehow, not quite human. And yet for some reason, just like these children, he had been chosen as one of the few she would protect, offering up her own life and freedom for him. Kit had done monstrous things, things that left him with nightmares, merciless and remorseless in her actions. So sure of everything she did, every action thrust upon her by something larger than herself. But wasn’t that what the angels of the end times described as? Warriors, avengers who struck down their foes without forgiveness or pity, saving only those who had faith. 

He had faith. 

“She risked her life to save me, fought to free me. It’s only right I do the same for her.”

Now that power is slowly coming back on, it seems like a great time to remind people to check anything that has the potential to burn their goddamn shit down if it was left on when the power went off.

Check you stove burners, check your toaster, check the curling iron plugged into the granny cord plugged into an ungrounded outlet--make sure it's turned off and/or unplugged before the juice starts flowing while you're out in the yard grilling dinner or chilling with a friend five blocks away.

[flintandpyrite]

I grilled dinner tonight for husband and in-laws and it worked so so well! I always forget that bringing a cast iron out and using the grill like a giant burner is an option. This is herby mushrooms and onions with grilled brats and peppers. Delicious.

Cute lil thing for a server weekly prompt (Domesticity)

Read on ao3

"What was this called again?" Shadow leaned up and over Vio's shoulder, using fluid shadow magic to stretch up comically around him.

Vio held a butter knife and some bread slices in his hands. On the countertop was some already sliced up cheese from a wheel, courtesy of a local farm they had helped, and an open dish container what Vio had told him was called 'butter'.

He applied generous amounts to the sides. "Grilled Cheese. Although it is deceiving since you are grilling the bread not the cheese." He moved over to their woodburning stove, already in action thanks to the now resting firerod nearby. They never have issues lighting it anymore. A small warm glow from the embers heated up the metal on top which had a flat iron pan. It was well loved to say the least.

Shadow watched in awed curiosity as he placed a slice butter down with a soft sizzle, added the cheese and then the other slice butter up. Being a creature made entirely of light and dark particles he didn't necessarily have a need to eat anything. In fact it was recently over a dispute of who can cook the best did he actually begin to do so. It makes him feel better after using his magic, plus it tasted good. Usually.

Vio was not usually one of those who was let into the kitchen. Sure he could make some damn good tea or hot cocoa, but cooking? Not really his thing. He had researched it profusely as an exact science. It often led to strange combinations and burnt foods.

However, there were a few things Vio was the best at. A few simple things he has spent a lot of time sneaking downstairs to master to impress a certain someone. In this case: grilled cheese.

Vio playfully smacked Shadows wandering hand away from the hot burner. "Patience. And don't touch you'll burn your fingers." Shadow pouted at him. He flipped the sandwiches over revealing a beautiful lightly toasted side as the cheese started gooey dripping out the sides.

"Woah."

After another minute Vio brought over a plate and plopped the toasted slices onto it while shutting off the burner top. Just the coals started going out. Shadow tried to touch the sandwiches again but stopped at Vio's pointed look.

"Trust me. I know what I'm doing."

"I'm pretty sure the last house fire says otherwise." Shadow gave him his classic lopsided grin, one fang poking out.

"Oh shut up." Vio flushed in embarrassment. "I was learning!"

"Learning arson maybe."

Vio swatted his arm. He used the butter knife to cut the sandwiches into perfect triangles. They were cooled just enough that the cheese stayed inside while still warm enough to be perfect. He held a piece up to Shadow. Shadow looked between the offering and Vio several times before deciding to still be a brat and take a bite of it right from his hands.

"Owhmayhgawd." Vio's favorite mannerless heathen spoke with his mouth full. He took the sandwich from him and shoved the rest in. "Thishsofickinghkgood"

"Shadow!" Vio's scold devolved into laughter. "You're gonna choke, don't just shove it all in!"

He swallowed it whole.

"Pah! That's what she said!" His hat behind him was swirling in joy between curling up and making a heart. Despite himself Vio snorted at the immature joke.

"Eat your grilled cheese." He sat on the counter and took his. Shadow leaned on the other side of the plate, having the other half of his own. Properly this time.

"Next time I'll ask Green to make his tomato soup with it, and you dip the sammich in the soup. Oh Gods damnit now Red's got me saying sammich instead of sandwich." He pinched his nose bridge.

"Haa! Told you it was contagious. Mr. Linguistics have different connotation blah blah blah snooreeee" Shadow imitated one of Vio's info dump rants.

They bickered like that for a while while Vio cleaned up their dishes. As they left the kitchen Shadow looked back briefly, a fond smile on his face. Maybe sometime he could learn this grilled cheese and make it for Vio too.

The technologically sophisticated stoves of today are the latest in a long line of such appliances. If you could visit a mid- to late 19th-century logging camp in northern Wisconsin, you might find an iron stove such as this one, found at a Rusk County site, used for cooking and heating. This nearly complete stove was found in pieces from the surface down to a depth of 35 cm (17.7 inches). The entire stove top was present. Other parts contained identifying labels. One piece was embossed with “P. Mack/ Pattern Maker/ Empire Stove Works.” A section of the front was embossed with the brand name “Golden Harp”--and, fittingly, among the fragments were stove doors with raised and molded harps. Other parts included portions of the sides, interior, burner lids, a grill, and three matching legs. Two linear depressions found on either side of the stove might indicate that the location was a “State of Maine” camp. This kind of camp, which would have been prominent in the region from the 1840s through the 1860s, consisted of a fairly simple structure with a single, multipurpose room (Rohe 1986:18). However, the few diagnostic artifacts found at the site suggest a time frame later in the 1800s, possibly the 1890s.

From Grilling to Dining - A Seamless Transition with an Outdoor Dining Table

"An outdoor fire pit table allows you to seamlessly transition from cooking to dining without ever leaving the comfort of your backyard."

In today's fast-paced world, fewer people have time for long dinner preparations indoors.

Yes, we are talking about It makes you able to grill, cook and even dine outside without having to transfer from one location to the other.

In this blog, we will learn how various sorts of multifunctional outdoor dining tables such as Korean barbecue grill tables, Japanese teppanyaki grill tables and regular outdoor fire pit tables can combine your backyard to function as an entertainment hub. So, let's learn more about these.

Korean Barbecue Grill Table - The Ultimate Grilling Experience

1. Korean BBQ Grill Table

A Korean barbecue grill table, also known as a 'Korean BBQ table', is designed after the authentic Korean dining experience. It consists of a dining table surface with a built-in gas or charcoal grill in the center. The most unique thing is the presence of individual grill tops or plates on the table for direct grilling of meat and vegetables.

Some key features of a Korean BBQ grill table:

Built-in gas or charcoal grill station in the middle of the table for communal grilling

Individual non-stick or stainless steel grill tops/plates on the tabletop for direct grilling

Large dining surface around the perimeter to lay out side dishes, rice, and other prepared items

Fold-down side shelves or storage drawers for utensils and condiments

Durable powder-coated steel or rattan rattan table construction

Adjustable temperature burners/grates and safety features

Korean BBQ lets you leisurely grill, cook, and feast on a wide spread right on the dining table with family and friends. It's the ultimate entertaining option to transform any backyard into an outdoor Korean BBQ party zone.

Japanese Teppanyaki Grill Table - Entertain in Style

2. Japanese Teppanyaki Grill Table

For those wanting to re-create the theatrical Japanese teppanyaki dining experience at home, a Japanese teppanyaki grill table is a showstopper. Inspired by teppanyaki restaurant tables, it consists of a flat iron griddle surface in the center that functions both as a cooking surface and dinner table.

Key attributes of a teppanyaki grill table include:

A flat-top griddle surface made of durable cast iron for cooking

Adjustable gas burners below the griddle to achieve high-heat searing

Sleek protective housing around the grill for safety and style

Surrounding counter-height dining ledges or stools for an interactive dining experience

Optional stainless steel backsplash, storage drawers and side shelves

Fun, engaging and experiential for groups compared to standard grilling

Watch the dramatic theatrical "chef" directly cook meats, vegetables, and sauces on the griddle surface right before your eyes. It's perfect for entertaining crowds and creating memories around the table.

Outdoor Fire Pit Tables - Versatile All-Season Use

3. Outdoor Fire Pit Table

For a more traditional outdoor dining function, a standard outdoor fire pit table allows seamless transitions from lounging to dining. Made for all-season use, it allows incorporating the ambiance and warmth of a fire pit into meals outdoors.

Key features of a classic outdoor fire pit table include:

Centered sunken or raised fire pit for ambiance and limited cooking like s'mores

Surrounding durable table surface for serving meals, games, and projects

Open design keeps the fire pit accessible from all sides for safe viewing

Elevated table height is comfortable for standing, lounging and dining

Sturdy yet attractive powder-coated steel, concrete or wood table construction

Optional side shelves, cup holders for convenience

Safety screens and spark guards as standard

Usable year-round from spring gatherings to winter parties

With an outdoor fire pit table, you can cozily dine, lounge and chat the night away - whether seating 6 people or 16. It keeps the fire pit as the heart of activities well after the daylight fades.

Create a Versatile Outdoor Kitchen

All the above multifunctional dining tables let you essentially set up an efficient outdoor kitchen right from the comfort of your patio or lawn area. Popular accessories that help make the most of such tables include:

Side shelves and pull-out drawers for prep space and storage

Built-in power outlets and USB ports for small kitchen appliances

Optional side burner attachments for extra cooking surface

Under-table fridge drawers or integrated mini-fridges

Stainless steel backsplashes and covered side panels

Concealed lighting, ventilation systems and sound systems

Umbrellas, awnings and pergolas for coverage from weather

Gone are the days of a simple picnic table or standalone grill. Today's feature-packed grilling stations and fire pit dining ensembles offer complete outdoor living and entertainment setups. They essentially eliminate the boundary between indoors and outdoors. Best of all, cleanup remains quick and easy, unlike a full kitchen!

Durability, Safety, and Maintenance Considerations
