Engine Block Cuisine: Automotive Chef Celebrates Freedom with High-RPM Barbecue

Highway patrol officers find motorist revving engine to 'medium-rare' temperature to expedite holiday lunch.

Engine Block Cuisine: Automotive Chef Celebrates Freedom with High-RPM Barbecue
# The High-RPM Grill Station A motorist pulled over on the shoulder of Interstate 95 was not experiencing mechanical trouble. Instead, he was simply preparing lunch. State Troopers stopped to assist what appear to be a disabled pickup truck with smoke pouring from the engine bay. Upon lifting the hood, they discovered a rack of hot dogs and three foil-wrapped burgers arranged neatly across the exhaust manifold. ## "Saves on Charcoal" "I was just revving it to 4,000 RPMs to sear the burgers," the driver explained. "The heat is free, and it gives the hot dogs a nice high-octane glaze." While the troopers admired the efficiency, they eventually advised the driver that the highway shoulder is not a designated culinary zone. *Satire Disclosure: This is a satirical article.
