Default where to cook on the JK engine?
Where have you successfully heated food on your JK's engine block, and how?

Haha. Haven't tried before.
Try a hobo(potato, carrots, onions, burger patty, wrapped in foil) diner. Begin riding at 8 am ready by noon???

I've seen food heated on a snowmobiles exhaust before, but never thought about trying it on a car/truck/jeep engine.

wrap food in foil and secure ontop of catalytic converter...you can also go all out and smoke some ribs by pulling a plug wire out and placing the ribs right by the tail pipe for 16 hours

Isn't there a website that has this info? 7slot grill or something? I can't remember the name - someone must have it saved. They sold stuff too.

I've heard of this, and should work great. I think there is a cook book called "The Manifold Destiny"
