Cook Gourmet Dinner In Your Fireplace

 Now that Fall has officially started, grilling dinner outdoors may not be a possibility. We have highlighted ways to cook in your fireplace before, but this piece by Huffington Post shows how easy it is to cook a gourmet meal in your family room.

1. Arrange two parallel rows of two or more courses of firebrick broad sides down toward the front of the fireplace or on the fireplace "apron". Shovel or hoe a layer of embers between the two rows, then rest a frying pan, griddle, Dutch oven, or even a soaked cedar plank on the bricks. Yes, the wood smoke will curl over the edge of the pan, infusing the food with smoke flavor.
