Unmelted cheese on a premade store bought "burger" patty as part of an arrangement on a gas grill that isn't even turned on is the single best representation of US politics I've ever seen.
at the risk of defending charles "chuck" schumer, the grill looks like the valves are open. either the grill is on or he's dousing his food with propane.
Yeah, valves are set open, but the main controller in the middle is off. I'm betting he has a preferred level he keeps it at.
But the cheese isn't turning, grates are dry, and there's no smoke.
Again, not to defend ol' Shoomy here, but maybe that's how his favorite made up constituents, the Bailey's, like their burgs. Lightly dusted with propane and cold cheese.
The middle isnβt a main controller, itβs a separate sear burner. (Grill is a Genesis II E-330 or similar.)
You still donβt put cheese on raw meat, but the grill is most likely on.
Ah, noted. I haven't seen that model before. Still no sign of actual cooking, or visible flame with the valves set to 75% open. I lean towards it being warm but off. And the greater point remains.
Not flames, or they'd be visible on both sides since both valve controllers are set the same. Likely a grease mark, not a grill mark, since the color of the meat hasn't changed.
The angle into the grill only makes the flames visible in the section under the circled patty because of the grates and drip plates. The line of orange looks exactly like gas grill flames.
The two side valve controllers are at the same position. If one was on, the other would be on.
The center master controller is in the closed/off position.
That is not a control knob for the other two. That knob is a control for the "sear station", which is an additional burner between them to create a zone of intense heat.
My middle controller is called a "super Sear" controller and isn't always turned on. You can see flames under the right flavor shield covering the burner.
that is a super-raw burger for the cheese to be on though β it takes at least 4 minutes to cook a burger that way at a minimum and that cheese will melt in a minute.
there does appear to be a grill mark under the cheese, but still, no way that burger gets to edible ever without that cheese melting all over the grill. but yeah, same.
I suspect the dogs were cooked, the grill turned off while warm, and then someone suggested adding the patties for the shoot, and then someone else suggested adding a slice of cheese for effect, and then, here we are.
I dunno dropping a kraft single on a burger patty bought premade from a store probably describes more of the country's ability then you're giving them credit for.
This may be the most NYC take on this abomination, but there are several fire codes heβs breaking by having a propane grill that close to his and other structures.
Interesting how while the suburban lifestyle is presented as a comfort to strive for by poor people, the really rich people avoid it. Who wouldn't want a nice grill party on their huge, monoculture lawn garden, next to their pool? Anyone who can afford better than that.
