European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - September 14, 1977, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Page 20 the stars and stripes wednesday september 14,1977 what to do with your old Rizw papers by Leah Larkin staff writer o you have stacks of old newspapers piled up under the bed in the hallway under the Kitchen sink you can always toss them in the Gar Bage. But papers should be recycled. Of course that s not so easy. It Means loading them into the car and hauling them somewhere. There must be an easier Way. So thought Vic Wheeler whose House was bulging with ancient issues of the stars and stripes and the Herald Tribune plus some copies of be Monde and Figaro read by his French wife made Leine. One Day in a Magazine he found the solution. Or so he thought. There was an and for an amazing Gadget a Shikari Grill. Not just any Grill was this but one whose fuel was newspaper. Perfect Wheeler figured get rid of the paper protect the environment and save on charcoal costs. He promptly wrote a Check Lor $15 and sent off for this device. When the Grill arrived he was so excited that he organized a Small inaugural party. The and said four pages from your daily newspaper can Cook a Steak to perfection in less than 6 min  Wheeler was a bit cautious. Before putting six steaks on a fire of newspaper he decided to conduct a test with hamburgers. How much newspaper to use four pages for a Steak three for burgers but that must mean regular size news paper Madeleine Wheeler said. It would take More pages of the tabloid size stars and stripes she pointed out. Right. Some guests said to double the amount others said just increase it by one third. Finally she took newspaper pages and rolled them up into five balls which she tossed into the Grill. The instant the paper was ignited a roaring Blaze soared out of the Small Black barrel shaped Grill. The burgers sizzled. The flames died Down the meat continued to Cook and the real show began. Little pieces of newspaper Ash Start flying around. The smoke thickens. Soon guests were taking cover from the fire debris. Wheeler was disgusted. You be got to Wear a Gas mask to use this he fumed. Get out the charcoal someone shouted. There was one plus. The Shikari Grill was fast. The hamburgers were cooked so quickly most guests figured there was t enough time for them to have absorbed Jain Nasty amounts of the paper particles. The meat was divided so everyone got a taste. Not bad. To be honest it does t taste like charcoal grilled meat. A bit  no one was Overly impressed but it was agreed to give the Shikari one More Chance. Perhaps the newspaper balls had not been rolled tightly enough. Maybe too much paper had been used. Another fire was lit with fewer pages. There was still plenty of smoke still too Many flying ashes. The fire however was tamed Down just enough to produce juicier burgers. They still lacked that outdoor charcoal grilled taste. But who Ever said newspaper was charcoal Flavoured the decision was unanimous get the charcoal filled Hibachi going for the steaks. The idea for the Shikari came from Africa Kenya to be exact where natives Cook on pots with holes in the Bottom using balls of grass for fuel. Meat cooked on a grass fire in Africa might be great but Don t expect much More than smoke and ashes from a newspaper freon your Patio. So much for experiments Wheeler said As he packed his $15 Grill Back in its Box. Anybody need a lifetime Supply of fish wrappers  a by Craig Claiborne new York times Ike everyone else.
