When I was driving OTR I had a stop at a department store that was attached to a grocery store. Taylorville Illinois, if my memory serves. Anyway, while I was waiting for them to unload me, I walked over to the grocery store to grab some rolls for morning. In front of the store there was a guy grilling Johnsonville Brats and they smelled awesome. But they wanted 4 bucks for one. I'm kinda a cheap skate, but I wanted brats badly. So I got the bright idea to grab a package of 6 and some foil. I laid the sausages on a piece of foil in a pyramid, and wrapped it up. Then I laid it on the exhaust manifold right next to the turbo, and drove to St. Louis, MO. When I got to my pickup, I could smell them sausages and my mouth was watering. I opened the hood and there was grease running out of the foil onto the manifold. man I can remember to this day how good it smelled. Well I grabbed the foiled sausages, and opened it up. The 3 on the bottom were burnt to a crisp. They looked like dried up dog turds, but the 3 on top were perfectly roasted. When you're that hungry for a certain craving, you never forget the smell or flavor of the food. I can actually smell it now.

I also heated many a C-rat can on an engine when available.
