Saturday. About twenty minutes prior to putting them on I turned on the grill to bring it up to temperature and went inside to prep the steaks. That done I went out to check the temp and noticed something crawling out of the rotisserie opening on the cover. Looking closer I saw it was a black widow about the size of my thumb. I knocked it off with a spatula and stepped on it. Opening the cover I saw dozens of spiders everywhere inside the grill trying to escape the heat. They were climbing up through the grills, crawling inside the top of the cover and running for the open front. Some were exploding like popcorn from the heat.
Then I woke up!
