He won’t cook. He won’t clean. But he will grill. Why is that? Why is he more excited to grill than to boil pasta or even microwave a Lean Cuisine? Well, in short, grilling appeals to the primitive he-man in every guy that gets buried beneath suits, PC talk shows and mortgages.

Sharp pointy things are involved.
Man is not required to carry clubs, spears or bow and arrows any more. He may not hunt. He may get sick at the thought of having to fillet a fish. But a wielding long metal tongs and spatula is pretty exciting.

There’s an element of danger.
Fire. Lighter fluid. Flame. It’s a simple way to get that testosterone flowing and a return to a simpler when fire was the only comfort in cave.
