Strategic Grill Locations is a comedy album from Mitch Hedberg. It is a recording of a performance at the Laff Stop Comedy Club in Houston, Texas from September 7, 1999.
Like Hedberg's second and final album, Mitch All Together, the title of Strategic Grill Locations is taken from an older joke that does not actually appear on the album:
"See I'm a dreamer, man, and when I was a cook I'd always work with people who weren't dreamers. Like, I was cooking at this restaurant and I put a hot dog on the grill and my kitchen manager came over, and he said, "Mitch, put the hot dog up here, in the right hand corner of the grill, so in case you get a whole bunch of orders at once you have all this space available." See that's how I knew he wasn't a dreamer, 'cause the day I give up my dreams is the day I have strategic grill locations. A dreamer has a philosophy: the entire grill is hot."
