Speaker A:But yeah, the average American does 13 grill days per year.
Speaker A:According to a new survey all about grilling, 84% say they would grill more if they had more opportunities to, although half of us say we're not 100% comfortable at the grill.

Speaker A:I go there for steak when I want a really dad gum good steak.
Speaker A:But the thing that I think a lot of people might not realize, they've got these various styles of hamburgers that are made there in the shop, steak burgers that are bacon wrapped, various seasoned ones.
