    very nice cooking, keep it honest, simple and delicious. no fancy nonsense or tons of garniture. and the grill statement from the beginning sums it up pretty good:
    ".. used grills for about 20k but now we juste use bricks from home depot and charcocal." nice. use them brains, most of the expensive stuff they tell you you need is just.. well.. expensive stuff. doesnt mean that its better in any way, quite the opposite in fact. if u think about it, that applies to pretty much everything society wants you to buy

      Laser Wolf is a name. It's Yiddish. Lazer is the Yiddish pronunciation of the Hebrew name, Eliezer. Wolf (or Volf, in Yiddish) is the Yiddish version of the Hebrew name, Ze'ev, which means "wolf" (one of a few animal names in Hebrew).
