Backdraft on Big Green Egg

A couple of days ago I was grilling some chicken breasts on the Big Green Egg and opened the top too fast without “burping” the egg and letting some oxygen in more slowly. A huge burst of flame shot out and took care of a good patch of hair on my arm! Smelled gross.

Hairy forearm with a large patch of singed hair visible against pale skin, outdoor patio and string lights in background.
