Sariél Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Single coil electric hotplate from Walmart for $9.95, or my electric stove in the kitchen. The stove works a little better, since it has flat coils with smaller spaces in between, but then I have to clean it and it makes the kitchen stink.

gr!m Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Trying to light these new fangled Romman Lemonwoods on my gas stove right now...not as easy as it seems. Seems to take 8 - 10 minutes, then it's mediocre and the place smells like a boyscout cookoff went on inside.Well hopefully they will work this time, I was getting aggravated so I ran to my nearest store only to realize it closes at 6! Do'h! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafeSearchOff Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 one thing i did during the summer - layer a "tray" outo f tinfoil - like 20 or so times over (i assume getting an actualy foil tray will work as well) and put it on top of the grill or outdoors stove. they get nice and warm in a few minutes and dont require much effort from yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1966 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I have a flat top burner that I use. I wish I would have got the coil one. It works good, but takes a little longer outside in the cold. That saves the BBQ smell in the house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
