Tenant gets back at his landlord after he enters his unit and throws away his beloved grill: ‘He dumped all the ashes out in the yard and threw away my utensils’

This landlord had no chill with another man's grill. 

After a shady dispute over a few seemingly benign landlord disputes, this tenant caught the property manager throwing away his belongings. Namely, he broke into his backyard and threw away one of his most prized possessions: a well-loved, over-seasoned charcoal grill.

There's one thing we can all get excited about when summer approaches: grilling and chilling. 

Summertime is awash with fond memories of black charred burgers, fresh canned beverages, and a communal bowl of salted watermelon, but oftentimes, the staple holding these welcome, happy memories together is the grill. With friends and family gathered around a barbecue, an epic waterslide made for the kids, and a cool breeze washing over your bare shoulders after a day in the sun, what could be better than sharing a hot dog or a hamburger? Even just the thought of a summer barbecue makes my heart lift higher, so it's rather unfathomable that a landlord, who had already approved of a new tenant's grill, would take that away from him. 

There's nothing that can stand in the way of a man and his grill, not even the loss of a favored piece of outdoor cooking equipment. There are moments in all of our lives where we are allowed to weigh our values and privileges. For this tenant, a guy who regularly enjoyed a freshly flame-grilled chicken thigh, a perfectly braised hot dog, or a BBQ pulled pork sandwich, his grill was his priority, and he would not let it go without a fight. 

Between a selfishly entitled landlord and a man whose grill was just stolen, one opponent has a fiery demeanor, sizzled ego, and some barbecue justice to avenge. 

Serving up a side of justice with the loss of his summer meats, potato salad, and icy popsicles, this tenant taught his landlord a lesson in privacy. They may have had their beef before (pun intended), but this rumble was going to be one that shakes up the way this Baltimore resident is going to live, ideally getting him out of a lease agreement with an entitled landlord.
