I've been trying to think of a disaster story all week, and couldn't. Which I'm not saying to brag, because I'm sure I've got one buried int he grey matter. All I could think of was the story my dad told me of his biggest grilling disaster. And since that's all I can shake out, that's the one I'll tell even though it was before I can remember (and possibly before I was born).
He was cooking a duck on his grill. He had the electric rotisserie going, everything was looking good. Duck was close to done, and Jeopardy was on. Now my dad was always a big fan of the gameshow, and would not miss Final Jeopardy if he could help it. So as the show was coming to a close, he thought the duck would be fine for a bit while he watched. After the answers were given and the winner decided he went out to check on the duck only to find his grill on fire, flames almost reaching the house. The duck fat caught. His bird was incinerated. His house almost caught fire. My mom never let him cook a duck again, which is why I never had duck my whole life until my wife (girlfriend at the time) made one for Easter one year. And now I really want duck...

I think a permi-ban of duck qualifies as a disaster story! :) Duck is one of my favorite meats (although I have never tried to roast it on a rotisserie myself). The time commitment in all of these grill projects is the blessing and the curse of the grill. I feel your dad’s pain of getting pulled away at the wrong moment.
